Feltest FiberScanONE
CHECK FOR DRAINAGE AND PULSATION IN YOUR FORMING SECTION
The forming section has a big influence on both the paper machine’s efficiency and the quality of the produced paper or board. Use the FiberScanONE to monitor analyse and optimize the drainage process by measuring the amount of water on the forming fabric after each dewatering element. Investigate the effects of forming fabric designs, fabric wear, machine settings, and chemical dosages. Make trend curves to understand what is actually happening in the forming section.
Advanced microwave technology
The Feltest FiberScanONE uses an innovative and patented microwave sensor, exclusively designed for the demanding conditions in the paper industry. The field of applications is extremely wide, ranging from low-speed board machines up to the fastest newsprint machines. No calibration is needed; just bring the measuring head up to working temperature and start!
As the microwave sensor only measures water, the readings are not influenced by the forming fabric or by filters like Ti02. In contrast to a gamma gauge, the readings of the FiberScanONE are not affected by metal parts close by. This allows measurements at more positions on top and gap formers; helping you to understand the drainage process even better.
FiberScanONE: a safe investment
Additionally to the innovative technology, the Feltest FiberScanONE has many more advantages. To mention a few:
- Increased operator safety
- Easy traveling without formalities, licenses, or bureaucracy
- Firmware upgrades are free of charge
- The hardware can always be upgraded to the most recent version
- Quick and reliable service
Your investment in FiberScan technology is safe for years to come.

The ultra-bright display shows a lot of useful information, like a graphical drainage chart or the cross machine direction profile. The display can be reversed for left-hand or right-hand use by pressing just one button. With every measurement also the quality of the test result is indicated, giving the user important and timely feedback. Improved efficiency comes from details like these.
