Lorentzen & Wettre introduces a new instrument in a series of portable meter instruments – L&W Consistency Meter.
The instrument is designed to analyze and optimize dewatering in paper, board and pulp machinery. This is performed by measuring the amount of water at various stages after the forming section, to see if all the dewatering elements are correctly adjusted in relation to the product that is currently being produced. Energy consumption is minimized by not using more vacuum than necessary in the dry suction boxes. All measurements are saved in a database and transferred wirelessly to the L&W Multiview 3D PC program. One can at any time download earlier measurement results and use them for comparison with new measurements directly on the display.
