Finding Paper Machine Problems with Portable Microwave Moisture Scanners, 1997 Papermakers Conference Proceedings
As any paper-maker will attest, there are a lot of things that can go wrong with a paper machine. When something goes wrong, it’s often difficult to know what to do to fix it. There are only a few instruments designed specifically to use for trouble shooting a paper machine. This paper discusses the use of one of the most popular instruments, the microwave moisture scanner. This paper shows how this instrument has been used alone, and with other measurement equipment to study paper machine problems.
