What will AGI do for Pulp Freeness Variability?
Pulp freeness measures the rate at which water drains from a fiber slurry, dictating how fast a paper machine operates and how much steam goes into drying. Process engineers and stock preparation operators battle freeness variability because raw wood fiber inherently fluctuates in moisture, species mix, and age. When freeness drops unpredictably, drainage slows down, forcing operators to reduce machine speeds or risk catastrophic paper web breaks.
