- Delivery time
The delivery of results is planned based on our order backlog and the scope and complexity of the assignment. We strive to deliver results on time, taking into account the specific requirements of your project. We appreciate your understanding and patience as we work to provide you with the best possible service.
Purpose
RISE has extensive experience of working closely with factories in various industries, including the wood and pulp industry. Through our close collaboration and expertise in process analysis, we have helped companies improve their production processes and solve complex problems.
Using our advanced fibre line analyses, we can quickly and cost-effectively identify and address challenges that arise in the production process. By carefully analysing data from the fibre lines, we can optimise the process steps to increase efficiency, reduce waste and improve product quality.
We offer a wide range of analyses and services that can be tailored to your specific needs and challenges. Examples of our analyses include:
Fibre analysis: We can perform detailed analyses of fibre samples to characterise properties such as fibre length, fibre distribution and fibre strength. This information can be used to optimise fibre blends and improve paper quality.
Process optimisation: We can use advanced modelling tools and simulation programmes to optimise various process steps and maximise production capacity.
Problem identification and problem solving: If you encounter specific problems or challenges in your production process, our experts can analyse the situation and develop tailor-made solutions to effectively solve the problems.
RISE has extensive experience of working closely with factories in this process. With the help of our fibre line analyses, results and solutions can be achieved quickly and cost-effectively. This ensures that optimisation, development and problem solving for various process steps in the wood and pulp industry are as efficient as possible. We welcome you to discuss with us which analyses are right for your company.
Methods
RISE can analyse wood and pulp using a range of different analyses and measurement methods established within the wood and pulp industry to characterise and assess various properties of raw materials, processes and end products. Below is a more detailed description of some of the most common analyses and measurement methods:
