SPM in Pulp and paper industry

SPM은 지난 수십 년 동안 펄프 및 제지 산업에 컨디션 모니터링 솔루션을 공급해 왔습니다. SPM 최초의 고객도 1970년 대 초 북유럽의 제지 공장이었습니다.

펄프 및 제지 산업에서 설비 컨디션 모니터링은 자산 관리의 초석과도 같습니다. 설비의 운용 상태를 제어하는 것은 공장의 수익성 최적화를 위한 필수 요소입니다. 회전 설비의 컨디션 모니터링은 설비 운영 비율을 높게 유지하고 사전에 설비 이상에 대한 충분한 경보 시간을 확보할 수 있으며, 설비 결함으로 인한 2차 손상을 예방하여 다운타임 및 결함 보수 비용을 감소시킬 수 있습니다.

제지 공장은 난방시설의 노후화와 베어링의 오염 및 부식으로 인하여 열악한 환경 조건을 갖고 있습니다. 따라서 SPM Instrument는 데이터 취득 과정부터 상태 판정에 이르는 모든 하드웨어 및 소프트웨어를 견고하게 제작하여 공급하고 있습니다. 특히 제지 공장은 윤활제 잔여물 유출, 카트리지 품질 유지에 예민한 만큼 SPM에서는 제지 산업의 요구에 알맞은 제품과 측정 기법을 꾸준히 개발하며 발전시키고 있습니다.

펄프 및 제지공장에 컨디션 모니터링이 적용되는 주된 설비는 conveyor belts, chippers, chip classifiers, blowers, screw conveyors, refiners, pressure screens, agitators, nip monitoring, felt rollers, spreader rolls, suction rolls, yankee cylinders, drying cylinders, vacuum pumps, realers 이며, 또한 전동기, 펌프, 팬, 기어 박스에도 적용이 가능합니다.

Case Studies

Bearing monitoring of pulp washer with SPM HD

The pulp washer, or wash press, is a critical piece of equipment in pulp production. As such, it is a prime target for online condition monitoring. When Norwegian pulp mill FollaCell AS equipped three pulp washers with the Intellinova Compact online system some time ago, it was not long before th...

Outer race damage on 4-7 RPM bearings

At Swedish biorefinery Domsjö Fabriker, the Intellinova Compact online system monitors the mechanical condition of two drying machines and one wash press. This case study recounts two separate occasions of severe bearing damage on the wash press. The four low-speed roller bearings on the Valmet w...

Condition monitoring of refiner bearings

Norwegian pulp mill MMK FollaCell AS monitors critical equipment with the Intellova Compact online system. This case study describes three individual bearing damages found in two refiners. Due to the refiner design, the conditions for measuring these bearings are not optimal, and the damage deve...

Gear damage on rotary kiln

This case study describes the detection of gear damage on an output shaft, detected during a capacity test involving a speed increase. The Södra Cell Värö pulp mill in southern Sweden uses the Intellinova online system with HD measurement technology to monitor the drives of its rotary kiln. In c...

Bearing damage on press roll

At Romanian paper mill Vrancart S.A., the online system Intellinova Compact with HD condition monitoring technology is installed to monitor the press section of paper machine K25. This case study involves the detection of bearing damage on one of the press rolls, showing the development of the da...

Multistage gearbox failure

Part of a comprehensive project investigating and determining best practices for gearbox monitoring with HD technology, this case study involves condition monitoring of a multi-stage gearbox in a pulp mill. The four-stage gearbox was in good condition when measurements began; over time, however,...

Comparative measurements with HD Technologies on couch roll

This case study shows comparative measurements between SPM HD and HD ENV on a couch roll bearing in paper machine K25 at Romanian paper mill Vrancart S.A. Adjud. To determine the most suitable measurement technique for this application, several methods were used on each measuring point, includin...

Outer race damage in Chemi-Washer detected with HD technology

This case study from Bulgarian pulp mill Svilocell is about the detection of a bearing damage through route-based condition monitoring on a Chemi-Washer, using the portable data analyzer Leonova Diamond. After many years of using the portable A30 analyzer, Svilocell upgraded to Leonova Diamond w...

Successful wash press monitoring with SPM HD at Zellstoff Pöls

his case study describes test measurements performed on an 8 RPM wash press in the bleaching plant at Zellstoff Pöls AG in Austria using the SPM HD method. After not having achieved reliable results with vibration measurement, Austrian pulp mill Zellstoff Pöls AG decided to conduct online test m...
