Industry Standard Fiber Metso Fiber Image Lab Expect results

Metso Fiber Image Lab New technology for fiber measurement 4th generation of Metso fiber analyzers: Metso FS300 Key to successful quality control • Suitable for all paper making fibers • Over 20,000 fibers analyzed in 6 minutes • Accurate and repeatable • TAPPI and ISO standards Top of the line performance • Unique capillary technology • Outstanding repeatability • Absolute coarseness measurement • Automatic analysis of up to 6 samples • Remote access • Maintenance minimized The global race for fiber resources is ever increasing. Fiber length is one of the most important factors that determine...

Measurement features Metso FS300 now also includes measure- ments for fiber width, kink and vessel cells. Fiber width can be used together with fiber length to estimate the paper making poten- Fiber width Vessel cell Vessel analysis is important for hardwood pulps, e.g. eucalyptus and acacia. With suit- able raw material selection, problems like vessel picking can be minimized. Metso FS300 includes the highest number of vessel detection parameters on the market. Kink and fiber curl measurements can be used together to measure kraft pulp guality. Kink and curl affect the strength properties, such...
