Leveraging Tissue Paper Production Data Using Seeq
Kimberly-Clark IFP ANZ Pty. Limited Data shown is illustrative and has been simplified for presentation purposes
57
Use case #1: Monitoring of Paper Towel Converting Process
A rolled converting asset transforms a large parent roll from the tissue machine into consumer-ready rolls we see in the market.
58
Use case #1: Monitoring of Paper Towel Converting Process
Challenge:
• Reduced overall equipment efficiency due to diameter variations on specific products
Solution:
• Create signals to show upper and lower limits to visualize variability
59
Solution: • Use ‘conditions’ and ‘capsule view’ to compare machine parameters for each product
run.
60
Use case #1: Monitoring of Paper Towel Converting Process
Result:
• Easily compared good and bad runs
• Helped support troubleshooting using real-time data → improved diameter control → increased machine speed and reduced waste
• Improved product OEE by 10%
61
Use case #1: Monitoring of Paper Towel Converting Process
Pulpers are used to process virgin, recycled, or broke bales into useable pulp for tissue manufacturing.
62
Use case #2: Monitoring Pulper Efficiency
Challenge:
• Decreasing efficiency can cause longer pulping time → increase batch process time → higher energy consumption
• No readily available tags to measure efficiency
• Processing time / pulping time can vary on type of product
63
Use case #2: Monitoring Pulper Efficiency
Relying on operator feedback
for issue
No proper monitoring
Reactive vs Proactive
Solution:
• Transform ‘raw’ signals into ‘conditions’ to isolate desired event
64
Use case #2: Monitoring Pulper Efficiency
Solution:
• Create signals based on condition aggregations to establish KPI
65
Use case #2: Monitoring Pulper Efficiency
Result:
• 10-years worth of historical data loaded in a few minutes vs 1-2 hours in excel.
• Used to identify periods of decline which triggers preventive maintenance
• Transformed the approach from reactive to predictive and avoid machine breakdowns.
66
Use case #2: Monitoring Pulper Efficiency
Use case #3: Comparing Tissue Machine Run Settings between Felt Fabric Replacements
Tissue Machine Background:
• Large loops of fabric
=> form and dewater pulp
=> tissue paper!
• Fabric material and structure
=> conditioning requirements
67
Use case #3: Comparing Tissue Machine Run Settings between Felt Fabric Replacements
Challenge:
• Fabric conditioning strategy => manual settings
• Fabric life => highly variable
• Significant replacement cost (USD XX,000) => how to prolong life?
68
Use case #3: Comparing Tissue Machine Run Settings between Felt Fabric Replacements
Solution:
• Create a condition where a capsule = life of one fabric
( 𝑑𝑦
𝑑𝑥 > 0) OR (y > 20000 revs) OR (no data)
69
Negligible dummy value to visually
differentiate capsules
Refresher from high school!
If a derivative is positive, its function is increasing
No change in revolutions
= Machine is shut
Use case #3: Comparing Tissue Machine Run Settings between Felt Fabric Replacements
Solution:
• Use ‘Capsule View’ => overlay other signals for comparison
70
Use case #3: Comparing Tissue Machine Run Settings between Felt Fabric Replacements
71

Challenge
Cracker run length dictates our shutdown schedule
The challenge is moving from guesswork to precision
The ability to predict the exact shutdown date is crucial. It allows us to:
• Enable effective maintenance planning
• Maximize productivity and eliminate profit loss from early shutdowns
Without real-time data, we are trapped:
• By Ineffective SD Planning:
• By a High-Stakes Trade-Off:
Previous Attempts
●Manual Process: Run length projections are manually calculated by
engineers using PI data exported to Excel
● Labor-Intensive: The process is time-consuming and requires
significant manual intervention for each update
● High Volatility: Forecasts fluctuate frequently with operational
changes, requiring constant recalculations to remain
accurate and reliable

accuracy of over 80%
Enhanced Online Visibility
& Collaboration
Provides a shared, interactive dashboard
for all teams (Operations, Maintenance) to align on one consistent forecast for faster
decision-making.
Proactive Notification
& Alerting System
Automatically notifies teams before a
shutdown is required, shifting maintenance
from a reactive emergency to a planned,
proactive event
Next Challenge
This success led us to ask a next bigger question:
“What if we could do more than just Predict the shutdown?
and What if we could actually Control it?”
Perform correlation analysis
Modeling & Forecasting
Create A Prescriptive Model
Y= f(X1,X2,X3,…,Xn)
Prediction Prescription
Two fundamental questions:
1. What are the Key operational factors that directly accelerate the need for a shutdown?
2. How can we adjust these factors in real-time to Safely extend our run length?

Approach
• Install IIoT devices on one of our circuit breakers to capture pressure and temperature.
• Utilise Seeq to replicate the work that is currently undertaken by our site crew.
• Monitor SF6 pressure in Seeq, alerting on low pressure state, and high deviation between phases.
• Ingest alerts via Databricks, forwarding the data to PowerBI and PowerApps for user interaction.
