HOW CONTROL STATION CAN HELP

Smarter Control. Stronger Margins.

Handle Batch and Continuous Processes
Whether managing a batch digester or a continuous bleaching process, Control Station's tools adapt seamlessly to dynamic conditions typical of paper mills.
Mitigate Energy and Steam Losses
Energy usage and steam balance are critical cost factors. Our solutions help maintain tighter control of temperature and pressure loops, reducing unnecessary consumption and improving energy efficiency.
Improve Product Quality
From fiber length and moisture content to brightness and finish, Control Station helps ensure the tight control of critical parameters that directly impact paper quality.
Shorten Grade Changeover Time
Optimize transitions between paper grades by improving controller responsiveness and reducing process variability during changeovers.
Comply with Environmental Regulations
Maintain stable effluent control and emissions management with better tuned loops, leading to more consistent discharge and environmental compliance.
Enhance Control in Harsh Process Conditions
Pulp and paper operations often involve high pressures, temperatures, and corrosive chemicals. Control Station’s solutions are built to perform in these demanding environments, ensuring reliable loop performance even when sensor data is noisy or instruments are aging.

Our Experience

Leading manufacturers across the Pulp and Paper sector leverage our technologies and related service offerings to maintain optimal control over their production processes.  With our deep domain knowledge of PID-based regulatory control and portfolio of innovative technologies, we serve as a trusted partner and respected source of industry best-practices.  Following are specific areas where Control Station can contribute to improve plant performance.

01

Monitoring
When process dynamics evolve slowly it can be difficult to know when those changes impact performance. With its ability to proactively identify and isolate mechanical, interaction and tuning issues, PlantESP equips production staff with valuable details along with the advance warning they need to maintain optimal control.

02

Tuning
Tuning software has a long history of underperforming in the Pulp and Paper sector. LOOP-PRO is different. It is industrial-grade technology that’s unique in its ability to address both long Dead-Time and oscillatory processes. It makes the tuning process faster and more consistent which are keys to success for any manufacturer.

03

Education & Training
Regular tuning of PID controllers has been proven to improve plant performance, but for many in the Pulp and Paper industry control loop tuning is a manual effort with hit-or-miss results. We’re experts in PID control and can share a simple, repeatable method for optimizing loop performance during each phase of production.
