Currently, most industrial-geodetic systems employ a positioning technology to inspect the geometry of large-sized complex objects. In this case, the spatial coordinates of the characteristic points are determined on the surface of the parts of the process line under examination, and the analysis of their relative positions is used to calculate the required geometry.

Sole plates are the basic elements for installing the main equipment of paper and cardboard machines, therefore, they, as the initial link, are subject to the highest precision requirements. It is necessary to ensure the leveling and flatness of the installation of plates and/or embedded parts of maximum 0.05 mm.
To ensure such accuracy, our professionals use only the best high-precision instruments in this class – laser trackers produced by Leica (Switzerland). These instruments allow us to guarantee the accuracy of the installation of plates and other equipment, if required, up to 0.05 mm in the measuring volume.

In addition, hardware and software capabilities and methods developed by our professionals allow us to see deviations in real time and perform all adjustment and tightening, as necessary, to achieve the required value. This approach to adjustment allows us to reduce the number of iterations as well as increase the speed and accuracy of installation and adjustment work.

Adjusting the position of the boxes of paper and cardboard machines with dewatering elements when using laser trackers takes no more than one working shift. In this case, both the distance from the lip as per the installation diagram and the height position are adjusted.
This technology allows us to make adjustments without removing the wire from the wire table, which significantly saves time for this stage of adjustment work.

Alignment of a rewinder is in demand during installation and operation. During installation, our professionals apply markings for drilling holes for embedded frames or anchors. It is followed by fine adjustment to the design position. Adjustment of rewinder rolls is also an integral part of the proper operation of a machine and requires skilled professionals as there are more geometric parameters to align than with the rolls of drying and press sections.

Thanks to our background and best practices in high-precision measurements, we are able to perform all alignment activities in a single coordinate system, even if rolls are located at different levels. We submit the form to the customer immediately after the survey is completed. All information received is processed automatically during the survey, which reduces the survey-to-decision time.

Modernization of the pulp and paper industry introduces new links of the process chain that are integrated with existing ones. Below is an example of the adjustment of a pulper’s bed frame. The task was to ensure the perpendicularity of the shaft to the flange in all planes and pour the frame with concrete mixture in this position.

When installing new equipment, there is a need to mount several overall frames that are not interconnected and ensure design horizontal and vertical orientation in space for further installation of a common element on them, with high accuracy.
During the installation of the unwinder section drive, we checked the quality of the pre-installation, identified unacceptable deviations of the drive line in the horizontal plane, which can be eliminated only by adjusting the bed frame, and it was corrected before pouring the frame with concrete mixture.
