Holmen Paper initiates second stage in online system upgrade on PM11 at Hallsta mill in Sweden


Holmen Paper takes another stride toward innovation by upgrading its online monitoring system on PM11 to the advanced Intellinova Parallel EN system from SPM Instrument.

With the success of the first stage of upgrades, executed in 2022, focusing on measuring equipment for the wire and press sections, Holmen Paper's preventive maintenance department in Hallsta paper mill has already experienced the benefits of Intellinova Parallel EN. The adoption of Intellinova Parallel EN equips Holmen Paper with SPM's patented measurement technologies, HD ENV and SPM HD, collectively known as HD Technologies. These methods provide exceptional forewarning times, enabling strategic planning for maintenance and repairs. The outcome is prolonged asset life, reduced repair costs, and minimized downtime.

This previous achievement has laid a solid foundation for this second stage, involving the installation of 104 angled accelerometers of model SLD144S that will provide the Intellinova Parallel EN with measurement data for analysis with the Condmaster Ruby software.

SPM Instrument is a global leader in condition monitoring technology.
