TIP 1101-07 Best Practices for Consistency Measurement The purpose of this guide is to introduce available consistency technologies and their proper selection in Pulp and Paper processes. This guide will discuss each technology’s capability and limitations and give direction on best practices regarding installation. In addition to technology and installation basics the guide will give recommendations for basic consistency loop design. Consistency measurement challenges and possible solutions will also be discussed. Good consistency measurement and control provides financial benefits by reducing process variability and contributing to final product quality. In order to achieve these benefits, the consistency management program should not only include accurate and repeatable measurements, but it is equally important that the program includes valid calibration procedures. These procedures would include data collection, sampling, and data analysis. Because mill processes differ, the intent of this guide is to equip readers with guidelines and principles that will allow them to develop and maintain good consistency measurements and controls. Accurate consistency measurement is also important for accounting purposes for stock tracking.

A report outlining the overdue reviews for Standards and TIPs were sent to the Quality and Standards Management Committee (Q&SMC) on September 27, 2023. Copies of these reports were also sent to the assigned Working Group Chairs for these overdue reviews as well as to Chairs of the appropriate technical groups in TAPPI. Anyone who did not receive the overdue report but who have an interest may obtain a copy by requesting it from standards@tappi.org. Working Group Chairs: This report was sent to you for your information and action, if required. Q&SMC may, according to the Standards Guidelines, withdraw any Standards or TIPs whose reviews are overdue, especially if it appears that little progress is being made on the Work Item. If more information or indications of progress on these Work Items are received prior to the next meeting (October 26, 2023), Q&SMC will take these reports of progress under consideration. To provide updates regarding this report, send a message to standards@tappi.org no later than October 19, 2023, in order to be able to provide this information to Q&SMC at their October 26, 2023 meeting.
