Voith's ScreenFitNavigator Allows Mills to Check Fine Screening Energy Efficiency

Voith, Germany, reports that its new, free-of-charge ScreenFitNavigator online benchmark test offers all paper manufacturers the chance to check the energy efficiency of their fine screening (slot screening) in the stock preparation area. Just a few weeks after the launch of the tool, many paper manufacturers from all over the world had performed the online test and received a quick and nonbinding energy assessment of their fine screening system. As well as English and German, the Navigator is now also available in Chinese.

For the analysis, system operators only need to input into the website a few parameters and the focus of their screening quality program. The analysis is done instantly and returned in the form of a PDF document that is sent via email. If potential is found in the quick test, Voith provides a more detailed analysis. Dedicated experts (ScreenFit doctors) can then work out a specific program for improvement after comprehensive measurements.
