As tissue manufacturers strive to optimize production efficiency and product quality, managing paper dust has become an increasing priority. Measuring and controlling dust levels is essential for maintaining smooth operations, ensuring regulatory compliance, and improving workplace safety. This challenge will be addressed in the upcoming webinar, "Using a Laser Instrument to Measure Dust Accumulation on a Tissue Paper Machine" taking place from 10–11 a.m. (ET) on Tuesday, April 22, 2025.

This session is the second installment in a four-part series exploring the best available technologies for tissue dust mitigation. The webinar will focus on the latest advancements in dust measurement using a Class 2 red semiconductor laser, providing industry professionals with actionable insights on quantifying and managing airborne dust levels in tissue manufacturing environments.

Participants will gain valuable insights into:

• The impact of fugitive paper dust on tissue production – Explore how airborne dust affects machine efficiency, product consistency, and operational safety.
• Laser-based dust measurement technology – Learn how Class 2 red semiconductor lasers are used to assess dust height in tissue paper machines and converting assets.
• Graphical output and analysis – Review methods for visualizing and analyzing dust data by grade to support continuous improvement in tissue production processes.

This webinar is ideal for tissue manufacturers, process engineers, quality control professionals, and operations managers looking to enhance their dust control strategies through precise measurement and monitoring.

CEU’s will be available upon completion of this webinar. For more information, contact rdavis@tappi.org
