eProductivity Software will be at SuperCorrExpo, on booth 1977.
Under the theme “FUTURE PROOF: Unboxing tomorrow’s corrugated solutions today,” ePS will showcase its latest innovations to transform the industry. From cutting-edge automation and significant energy savings with ePS Escada corrugator process and control systems to advanced plant floor data collection and quality checks, ePS is redefining efficiency, sustainability, and productivity.
At the event, ePS will highlight its latest corrugated control innovations within its Escada portfolio. The Escada Automatic Corrugator Warp Control system automates production processes regardless of machine age, reducing reliance on skilled operators and enhancing operational efficiency.
Alongside the warp control offering, the new Escada Energy solution significantly reduces corrugator steam and electrical energy consumption, supporting sustainability initiatives while driving cost savings. Real-world results include a 2.5-5% reduction in overall steam consumption, a reduction in steam supply to single facers when not in production, up to 60% reduction of trim fan power usage based on trim width, board grade, and speed, and a 15-30% reduction of single facer vacuum power based on paper grade and corrugator speed.
Another innovation is Escada Reliability, a predictive maintenance tool that anticipates and prevents potential equipment failures, ensuring seamless operations and increased uptime.
The Corrugated Suite (formerly CTI) features a new alternative web-based plant floor data collection system developed for corrugated. The system provides real-time data and insights that enhance efficiency and productivity. Supported by plant floor Quality Checks, the system improves the board-to-converting process while reducing waste and downtime. Additionally, ePS will showcase its cutting-edge technologies of the Corrugated Suite, including converting scheduling, corrugator trimming, and roll stock inventory management.
ePS will also introduce its cutting-edge Workbench and Business Intelligence (BI) solutions. Workbench offers real-time, web-based dashboards comprising widgets tailored to individual users, ensuring personalised and immediate access to critical data. Complementing Workbench is ePS’ robust BI capabilities that deliver powerful insights from extensive data sets, enabling manufacturers to make data-driven decisions confidently. This innovative combination enhances operational efficiency and empowers users with the tools to drive performance and maintain a competitive edge in the industry.
