Runtech Systems launches new RunPro Easy4 Web Stabilizers, marking a new era of dryer section runnability. By combining efficient stabilization, adjustable vacuum control, and simplified maintenance, RunPro Easy4 strengthens sheet stability across the dryer section and supports mills in achieving higher productivity with lower energy use. Easy4’s maintenance‑friendly design eliminates annual outage requirements, and delivers significant long‑term cost savings by completely eliminating consumable‑related expenses.
“RunPro Easy4 is easy to use, maintain, install and trust. RunPro Easy4 also fits into our broader total concept for improving overall runnability. Managing unsupported draws, controlling pocket airflow, and stabilizing sheet transfer all contribute to fewer breaks, smoother tail threading, and higher sustainable machine speeds,” says Teemu Juselius, Product Manager, Runtech Systems.
“The Easy4 Stabilizer made a strong impression from its very first startup. Three more machines equipped with Easy4 Stabilizers will come on stream in 2026, and the outlook looks very positive. Customers have instantly seen the benefits to their mills,” says Jussi Lahtinen, Sales Director, Runtech Systems.
Easy4: the next generation stabilizer
RunPro Easy4 represents the latest generation of stabilizer technology designed specifically for today’s high‑speed environments. It uses the same proven high vacuum principles as EasyOne but adds important improvements. Its consumable‑free design and adjustable vacuum system allow operators to fine‑tune sheet control according to grade, speed, and moisture profiles without the limitations of fixed vacuum levels or parts that wear out. The optimized airflow concept provides strong sheet support at notably low energy input, addressing a growing industry priority in the dryer section, where every kilowatt counts.
Maintenance is equally important for long‑term performance. Easy4’s slide‑out nozzle design enables safe, fast access from outside tight dryer pockets, reducing downtime and helping mills maintain consistent operating conditions.
