Nippon Dynawave Packaging increases superior product quality with Procemex Web Inspection solution

Nippon Dynawave Packaging, manufacturer of the highest quality paperboard for cartons and cups, has chosen Procemex to provide a 3D Crystal Web Inspection solution for their L3 product line. The Procemex 3D web inspection solution will ensure that the product of the paper machine will be free from paper machine defects such as indents, outdents, wrinkles, and other by-products of the paper making process.

Previous to selecting Procemex as their quality partner for years to come, Nippon Dynawave Packaging and Procemex conducted an on-machine trial to prove the capabilities of the 3D web inspection solution.  The image quality and detection for the trial were overwhelming to the Nippon Dynawave Packaging team which resulted in moving forward with full defect detection capabilities.  The 3D web inspection solution was be installed and commissioned in December 2022.  

The Procemex defect detection solution is integrated with the already existing Procemex sheet break detection and web monitoring solution giving the L3 production line the capability to analyze root-causes of defects and thereby, increasing efficiency and improving the quality of the product.

The modern, integrated, and high-resolution Procemex web inspection and monitoring solution will provide Nippon Dynawave Packaging new possibilities and technical solutions to improve the production line efficiency.  In addition, the product quality of liquid packaging will continue to fulfill end users’ ever increasing quality requirements.  With the advanced web inspection capabilities, the delivery will be equipped hardware and software solutions enabling advanced wrinkle detection, as well as indent and outdent detection capabilities.
