Mr. Salmannshofer’s paper will focus on Xerium’s innovative and
recently patented roll cover venting technology called EnerVentTM.
This new roll cover is enabling tissuemakers to significantly
reduce energy consumption while optimizing production costs and
enhancing end-product quality.
Mr. Salmannshofer has held a number of Application Engineering
positions during his more than 10 years at Huyck.Wangner / Xerium
in both press felt and roll cover applications.
With an extensive background in press optimization, Mr.
Salmannshofer is skilled in analyzing conditions and identifying
opportunities for improved performance. Utilizing proprietary
systems to simulate machine operation, Mr. Salmannshofer can
evaluate machine configurations and production variables to quickly
understand how to maximize performance and achieve the greatest
potential for improved quality, machine speeds, and reduced
operating costs.
During his session, Mr. Salmannshofer will review several case
studies highlighting this new technology.
“As global tissuemakers face increasing demands for higher
efficiency, improved tissue sheet quality, and reduced energy
consumption, our engineering team responded by developing the
highly successful EnerVent concept to help them achieve their
goals,” said Bill Butterfield, the Company’s EVP & CTO.
“Speeds continue to increase as do the requirements for roll
covers and machine clothing to handle the high water loads on
modern tissue machines. Our customers have been very pleased to
experience a new-concept roll cover technology that is performing
at a very high level on these very demanding positions. Unlike
conventional covers, EnerVent is uniquely engineered with various
combinations of drilled and grooved patterns that prevent
problematic degradation of performance during the cover’s running
life,” said Butterfield.
The presentation will not only highlight EnerVent technology,
but also Xerium’s unique RezolveTM machine simulation system.
Rezolve combines sophisticated predictive analysis with real-time
process monitoring to provide tissuemakers with innovative
decision-making tools to significantly enhance machine performance
while minimizing downtime and cost-per-ton.
“The Rezolve system utilizes hundreds of variables on a paper
machine to develop fact-based technical recommendations on clothing
and roll cover technology, rather than relying merely on subjective
opinions. Ultimately, our technologies create customized solutions
for each machine, delivering documented improved machine
performance, while also supporting sustainability and reductions in
energy, fiber and specialty chemicals,” said Butterfield.
