As a part of SCA's investment in a new CTMP mill in Ortviken in Sweden, PulpEye has received an order comprising two DotEye analysers, upgrading of three existing PulpEye analyser equipment and renting of a CrillEye module.

SCA decided in 2020 to revamp its Ortviken paper mill to a state-of-the art facility producing CTMP market pulp with a capacity of 300,000 tonnes. Already in 2006 SCA bought three PulpEye online pulp quality analysers with modules analysing fibre, freeness and shives for the paper mill's TMP plant. These modules will now be upgraded to the latest technology. In addition, two DotEye analysers will be installed to make sure that the pulp products are as clean as possible.

The CrillEye technology, once developed by STFI in Sweden and now produced and sold by PulpEye, has proven to be a useful module when measuring the amount of crill in a pulp suspension. Crill has a great influence on paper and board strength properties as well as on bulk. As a part of the agreement SCA will therefore rent a CrillEye module to evaluate its potential for the coming Ortviken CTMP mill.

PulpEye is an innovative measurement technology Swedish company, focusing on online applications and services in the pulp and paper industry, with the whole world as its market.
