Papertech’s new Acculog™ software allows tissue producers to fully automate paper log measurement to 1 mm diameter before arriving in the packaging line. It measures each log on-line with highest accuracy, eliminating manual operator methods. 

As each log passes through the last stage of production before the log saw and packaging line, a set of Acculog cameras and lights placed above the log, continuously measure the diameter, and these readings are sent to the machine management system. If the diameter measurement is outside the set limits, the log can be rejected or an alarm triggered and corrective action taken immediately.
