ABB's pulp and paper digital lab is built on technologies, data analytics and domain expertise to help solve the complexities mills face.

As Industry 4.0 opened the doors for a new breed of digital solutions, ABB focused on finding ways to address real-mill problems by creating solutions that are grounded in the real world.

With a deep understanding of the pulp and paper industry and close collaboration with mills worldwide, we've worked to become a 'think tank' for mills. Hearing problems. Understanding technical challenges. And creating solutions that yield full benefits. 

See how our decades in the industry helps deliver solutions that address real-mill problems.

 

Delivering the full benefits of the digital transformation

At the heart of the pulp and paper industry transformation is the never-before available levels of process intelligence. While the industry is certainly embracing digitalization - particularly in terms of an enhanced ability to collect data - knowing how best to utilize it is key.

Following a strategy that equalizes the importance of domain know-how with digital technology and data management strategies ensures the best results are achieved. But many companies in the digital space focus on buzzwords and not the practical application of using technology and data to optimize a complicated industrial process.

At ABB, we focus on delivering value, which means bridging first-hand experience with tailored, co-created digital solutions to help mills achieve goals related to higher producivity, improved quality and lower cost to produce.

By combining digital technologies and data analytics with domain, technology and automation expertise, our solutions are purpose-built to help solve the complexities mills face.

From development to service delivery, ABB combines data, technology and expertise to optimize operations
