TAPPI's 2013 Tissue Properties and Manufacturing Course, to be held in conjunction with PaperCon 2013, covers the fundamentals of manufacturing and provides an excellent overview of this dynamic market segment. The two-day course will be held on April 27-28, 2013 in Atlanta, Ga., USA, and precedes PaperCon and the Tissue360° Forum.
"Tissue manufacturing is technically innovative and rapidly growing and the Tissue Course provides an excellent overview of manufacturing operations, equipment, and tissue sheet properties," notes Larry N. Montague, TAPPI president and CEO. "Course participants will be able to also take advantage of the Tissue360° Forum and all of the networking opportunities available during PaperCon."
This course is designed for those who desire an introductory-to-intermediate level, comprehensive, and structured course on tissue properties, and the effect of manufacturing processes on them. It provides an excellent educational compliment to the Tissue360° Forum sessions. Attendees will learn about a wide range of key topics including: tissue properties and tests; stock prep and refining; chemicals (wet end and yankee); wet end operations; TAD and yankee drying; creping; calendaring; and converting. A no-charge webinar featuring some of the course content will be held on March 6, "Tissue Manufacturing for Softness." More information about this course is available online.
The Tissue360° Forum and PaperCon 2013 feature the industry's largest technical program in addition to a number of special events, seminars, and tracks on a wide range of topics and industry segments, numerous networking opportunities, keynote presentations, and a trade show exhibit.
