For more than 100 years, Neenah Paper has been a market leader in specialty papers for premium writing, text, cover, digital, packaging and label applications.

At Neenah Paper, quality standards are of upmost importance. They use Velotic’s Proficy Plant Applications to ensure quality in their manufacturing. They verify and test the caliper, which is the paper’s thickness, along with the porosity and weight, among others. If the paper is not up to specification, they do not ship it to their customers.

With Velotic’s Proficy Plant Applications Quality module, Neenah Paper’s operators and the Quality Assurance Department are able to visualize the data. If something is out of specification, an alarm will notify the operator.

"Software in manufacturing helps us out for decision support. We do need quality and timely data to understand how our product is performing and if our customers are satisfied."
