Achieving Progressive Quality Culture Through Analytical Problem Solving, Paper360º March/April 2021

Historically, the pulp and paper industry has risen to the challenge of solving issues with the skills available; yet these skills are not being updated and refreshed. An APS approach can re-establish the skills our workforce needs.

In the day and age of global improvements in consistency and quality across many manufacturing sectors, pulp and paper mills are still encountering processing problems too frequently. For the most part, papermakers have become adept at diagnosing and fixing problems, particularly when they are one-dimensional. These types of problems emerge out of a direct “cause-effect” framework. Their root-cause diagnosis is simple, straightforward, and often requires only repair or recalibration of some process component. Process problems starting, recognized, and having a measurable impact within a department are often the problems most quickly diagnosed and resolved.
