Voith's Papermaking Academy helps start up SCA's PM 2 in Obbola

Voith delivered effective commissioning trainings for the November 2022 start-up of the world’s largest kraftliner machine, SCA’s PM 2 in Obbola, Sweden.

Thanks to Voith's PapermakingAcademy and comprehensive documentation, the SCA team was optimally prepared for operation of its new state-of-the-art facility.

“A key factor to the successful start-up here in Obbola has been the training given to the employees. Voith prepared extensive training materials, and Voith and SCA together made sure there were several occasions for each training so employees could attend while also running our old, now closed paper machine,” says Lisa Lundström Hämälä, Process Engineer at SCA.

Voith is a leading provider of comprehensive expert training for the papermaking industry. With the Papermaking Academy, the company offers target group-specific training programs and courses that cover the entire life cycle of a paper machine and the plant’s components. The PapermakingAcademy enables customers to use and operate their paper machines to their optimal capacity. During commissioning, this results in a faster take-over. At the same time, Voith supports papermakers with in- depth expert knowledge to drive forward efficiency and lift their plants to the next level of performance.

Training offerings of the PapermakingAcademy cover the entire life cycle of a paper machine
“The new training modules include all sections of the paper machine and cover its entire life cycle. This allows us to support customers precisely where and when they need it – and with the help of new, digital tools,” says Zahida Sakic-Kramer, Director Design Main Sections at Voith Paper, describing an important aspect of the Papermaking Academy.

The PapermakingAcademy course catalog gives information about all courses, the respective learning objectives and the recommended target groups. This ensures that participants get the maximum benefit from training in homogeneous learning groups and that customers can make use of a comprehensive and unique training offering to educate their personnel in the best possible way.
