Method for process management in paper and cardboard manufacture

摘要

A method and apparatus for using a neural network to control a paper or paper board production machine. By using spectrum measuring devices, the characteristics of the starting materials for the paper and board production and/or their intermediate or final products are registered and the values fed to a neural network. The network provides statements concerning the paper and board quality, from which signals for the feedback and/or feedforward control of the production process may be derived.
