Valmet has received an order from Papirnica Vevče d.o.o in Ljubljana, Slovenia, to supply a Valmet IQ Web Inspection System (WIS) to inspect paper web quality. This is the first order for the Valmet IQ WIS with new high-performance Valmet area cameras.
The order was included in Valmet’s orders received of the first quarter 2025. Its value will not be disclosed. The delivery is scheduled for August 2025, and the start-up for September.
“Thanks to close collaboration, we have made a significant step forward in improving paper quality. The new Valmet IQ WIS will create a solid foundation to Papirnica Vevče’s continuous improvement and innovation,” says Sarp Türkmen, Sales Manager, Automation Systems business line, Valmet.
The Valmet IQ WIS has new high-performance Valmet area cameras that enable high-resolution imaging even at fast web speeds. Low-angle reflection inspection geometry enhances the visibility of 3D surface defects like scratches and wrinkles, and glossy defects like roll marks.
Transmission inspection geometry with new Valmet area cameras enables high CD and MD resolutions at the machine’s fast operating speed, allowing the detection of unseen defects and detailed defect pictures from holes, dirt spots, contaminations, and cracks.
Valmet IQ Winder control system with defect handling and automatic braking system to optimize winding and coating processes will be delivered too.
