As part of the Industrial Internet offering, Valmet has developed winder diagnostics to help board and paper customers optimize the overall performance of their winder. Winder diagnostics is an essential part of a winder reliability agreement.
The service ensures better maintenance predictability which in turn means fewer unplanned stops and improved performance of the winder. It provides information from the winder enabling quick reactions to sudden abnormalities and prompt scheduling of maintenance actions.
Collaboration Drives Development Forward
Valmet Winder Diagnostics has been developed in close collaboration with selected customer mills to ensure its usability and usefulness.
"The collaboration with mills was started at a very early stage of the development process. It has been very important to exchange ideas and development needs and receive feedback from genuine user experiences all along the way. We also used the Valmet Customer Portal as the common communication platform," says Markku Savioja, Global Product Manager, Board and Paper Service Technology at Valmet.
