The new Metso Pulp Analyzer provides the first online measurement of micro-scale details of fiber properties, thereby giving pulp and papermakers a tool to help predict how fiber properties will affect final sheet-strength properties. The pulp analyzer features a new high-definition fiber-imaging module, which measures fibrillation, vessel segments, flocs and other particles. Fibrillation measurements, combined with other fiber properties measured by the analyzer, can be processed in a modeling tool for predicting final sheet strength. The analyzer samples from up to 20 process fiber streams. — Metso Corp., Helsinki, Finland
