Papertech has been involved in break recording technology for several years and installed the first fully digital systems. Since then, we have done extensive R&D into digital image handling and its associated software which has been incorporated into our WebVision technology. With the advanced breakthroughs of this system, it is now possible for you to continuously, in real-time, monitor all of the critical locations where breaks can occur.

Over the last three years, Papertech has become the most experienced and widely used supplier of event capturing technology in North America. Our advanced, fully digital technology offers papermakers the fastest and most complete way of solving the reasons causing breaks. WebVision monitors breaks as they happen, giving papermakers a means to store, review, and analyze breaks, resulting in break reductions of up to 80%. With the ability to continuously monitor all critical locations in real time, users are now better able to prevent breaks before they happen.
