QCS Profile Historian

Optimize industrial process by leveraging real-time data collection and advanced presentation techniques

Variations in paper properties, such as basis weight, moisture or caliper, can be costly as they may lead to significant issues such as rejects, machine downtime, and lost profits. ABB’s Profile Historian addresses issues that can lead to inconsistent paper quality and facilitates mills in maintaining high-quality standards and improving operational performance.

By continuously gathering and analyzing data from cross direction (CD) and machine direction (MD) scanning measurements, Profile Historian identifies operational variations that can impact paper quality. Its clear, color-graded contour maps provide detailed historical quality information, enabling operators to pinpoint both current and emerging trends.

With intuitive features like drill-down capabilities for specific reels, data comparisons across multiple sensors, and export options for further analysis, operators can uncover the root causes of variability.

By offering continuous quality monitoring and comprehensive reel-to-reel comparisons, Profile Historian helps reduce waste, improve profitability, and ensure customer satisfaction.

How it works

Profile Historian's ability to visualize and compare data from multiple sensors and scanners ensures consistent quality control and efficient troubleshooting. By enabling faster response to quality issues, mills can take a proactive approach to process management, ultimately leading to improved product quality and operational efficiency.

Profile Historian can also be delivered via ABB Collaborative Operations Center, which connects services that leverage the availability and transparency of data from the Extended Solutions platform into a data ecosystem. By connecting ABB and customer experts to data in a collaborative environment, problems can be quickly diagnosed, and corrective actions implemented.
