Uniform distribution of fibers is essential for producing high-quality paper and board, as it directly affects all strength properties such as tensile strength for example.
L&W Autoline Formation measures total formation, using advanced optical analysis based on transmitted light and opacity variation. The test report includes a traditional single value average formation. In addition to this average formation value, the spatial bandpass filtering also quantifies flocs and voids at 16 different void and floc sizes. This enables good correlation potential with traditional paper properties, like tensile and other strength properties.
