Greycon Ltd., one of the leaders in supply chain optimisation for the paper, printing, film and nonwovens industries, announces a new product for the Pulp Industry. PulpPlan is an optimisation based scheduling system.
Case studies have demonstrated the possibility of a throughput increase in the range of 2-5%, equivalent to a profitability increase in excess of €1 million pa. This is achieved by combining:
- A rich model that captures the essential aspects of the process
- A state-of-the-art non-linear optimisation engine
- A modern graphical user interface with unlimited what-if capability.
Pulp mills can use PulpPlan to improve in throughput, quality uniformity, scheduling of planned downtime, resilience against unplanned events via optimised tank scheduling, fossil fuel costs and CO2 emissions and even operator training.
“PulpPlan is an interesting new tool to our product portfolio. This is a tool which customers will for sure find value adding. It further expands the understanding and coverage of our paper industry supply chain”, said Constantine Goulimis, CEO of Greycon Ltd.
