Non-Contact Moisture & Coating Sensors Bring Immediate ROI

During paper production, precise moisture content control is important for paper quality and energy economy. From the beginning to the final product, knowledge of the moisture concentration throughout the process provides substantial cost savings. Paper can easily become either too wet or dry wasting manufacturers and customers time and money. With the help of industry partners and 40 years of knowledge, MoistTech has developed the IR-3000 Moisture Sensor which is ideally suited to measure throughout the paper manufacturing process.

MoistTech's IR-3000 sensor is an invaluable quality control check for papermakers as they can instantly isolate problem areas during operations so that operators can fix and optimize their process. Additionally, the sensor offers continuous non-contact and non-destructive measurements that do not interfere with production and can be used anywhere throughout the paper process including the initial wet ends stage with paper pulp.

MoistTech's IR-3000 online NIR moisture sensor can not only measure moisture but can also measure water & solvent based coatings, coat weight thicknesses & adhesives as well as detect loss of coating or spot defects. With continuous NIR measurements during the process will improve manufactures product quality and increase productivity within substantial cost savings by controlling the re-moisturizing process, optimize the dryers, eliminate any curling and out of specification products.
