Revolutionizing tissue production with Valmet’s non-contact, nuclear-free quality control system

The latest generation of Valmet IQ QCS represents a breakthrough in tissue production, introducing the world’s first tissue quality management system based on non-contact, nuclear-free measurement technology. The solution provides real-time visibility into critical quality parameters without physically touching the moving paper sheet. By eliminating both physical contact and radioactive sources, the system enhances operational safety, reduces the risk of web breaks, and helps maintain a more stable and efficient production process.

This innovative technology enables tissue manufacturers to continuously monitor key product properties, including basis weight, dryness, moisture, softness, and creping behaviour. Through more accurate and reliable measurements, the system improves control performance and allows mills to proactively optimize product quality in real time.

Specifically developed for the demanding conditions of tissue manufacturing, Valmet IQ QCS features an advanced scanner sensor self-cleaning system supported by modern simulation tools. As a result, the system can maintain stable performance even in dusty environments or when processing recycled raw materials, minimizing maintenance requirements while ensuring reliable measurement performance and long-term operational efficiency.
