VIB MoistureTech

Control Station^ECS is an electronic control station that governs the pneumatic actuators. Each actuator is controlled by an I/P-converter with a control signal of 0.4 to 2 bar (6 - 30 psi). Setpoints are sent from the VIB Control Station^IPS using measurement system data.

Control Station^IPS is an integrated process station that serves as the central process point for the system. It contains the integrated control, the operator visualization package, PLC functions and the intelligence to control the entire actuator control system.

Benefits for the Paper Industry

• Increased sheet moisture for higher quality grades.
• Flatter profiles and moisture control can be achieved simultaneously.
• Narrow spacing of the actuator can be defined based on sheet flatness.
• Optional feedback of the actuator position ensures reliable functioning of the VIB MoistureTech Actuator.
• Better edge performance for improved converting.
• Moisture increase of 1.5 - 2% by using single-side application.
• Moisture increase of 2 - 3% by using double-side application.
• Moisture control on siliconized paper.
• Moisture control on Coated Paper.
• Moisture control on converting machines.
• Moisture control on Filter Paper.
• 3 - 4% increase in efficiency of the total production line with integrated moisture control.
