Pulp & Paper Automation

Advanced controls for pulp and paper mills — improving efficiency, safety, and product quality.

Digesters

The pulp process begins with digesters, where wood chips are cooked under pressure. ADC provides automation for temperature, pressure, and chemical dosing to ensure consistent pulp quality and safe operation.

Washing & Screening Systems

Washers and screens remove impurities from pulp. We integrate controls for flow management, consistency monitoring, and efficient water usage to optimize recovery and minimize waste.

Refiners

Refiners improve pulp fiber characteristics before papermaking. Our systems monitor motor loads, plate gaps, and energy use to deliver precise fiber treatment and reduced operating costs.

Paper Machines

The paper machine forms sheets of paper from pulp. ADC provides automation for headbox flow, wire tension, press section controls, and sheet consistency to maximize production rates and quality.

Drying Systems

Dryers remove moisture and stabilize sheet properties. We integrate automation for steam flow, dryer section balance, and energy efficiency while ensuring safety and uniform product results.

Finishing & Converting Equipment

Finishing machines cut, coat, or roll paper for end-use applications. Our automation solutions include tension control, roll handling, and defect detection to ensure reliability and minimal downtime.

End-to-End Pulp & Paper Automation

From wood chips to finished rolls, Applied Design & Control delivers automation that boosts efficiency, safety, and product consistency across the pulp and paper industry.
