Detailed Project Planning Helps American Eagle Paper Mills Achieve Impressive Results, PaperCon 2016 

American Eagle Paper Mills in Tyrone, PA had a serious issue when they lost a drive bearing on a dryer can in their No. 3 Paper Machine. The failure caused severe journal damage and though the mill was able to complete an emergency field repair that allowed them to run for several more weeks, they knew the permanent fix involved replacing the dryer can. Working with OASIS Alignment Services, American Eagle developed an in-depth project plan for the removal of the damaged dryer can, the installation of the new dryer can and the alignment of all rolls within that section. This attention to detail prior to the start of the project resulted in the job being completed ahead of schedule and with a significant cost savings due to reduction in machine downtime.
