Innovation in Safety: The Leading Edge of Leading Indicators
Thursday, Feb. 21, 2013 - 12:00pm - 1:00pm EST
Register to attend.
Learn how statistical analysis and data management can be used more effectively for safety performance management through a demonstration of a numerical system of leading indicators that can predict potential workplace accidents, helping mills to prevent them. Based entirely on objective, measurable data, this predictive system is an excellent resource for proactive safety management.
This discussion will focus on identifying, quantifying, and combining measurable parameters into a safety performance model that clearly defines both environmental risk and individual risk in a way that affords us necessary clues for an effective accident prevention program. Learn more.
Webinar No. 2
Increasing Paper Machine Agility with a Novel Grade Change Concept

Register to attend.
A narrow grade mix and long grade runs were once common. Not today. Most machine make a wider set of products with many grade changes. A new grade transition concept makes such machines more competitive by increasing the stability and agility of the line. Unlike traditional programs, the new grade change concept replies on normal quality controls to move the machine from one grade to the next, quickly and smoothly in a closed loop. Learn more.
