Intelligent maintenance for maximum plant availability

Sappi reduces costs with a digital maintenance strategy

Boosting maintenance efficiency at Sappi

With MOBILE MAINTENANCE – the SAP-based mobile solution from T.CON – Sappi is optimizing its maintenance processes in production and increasing the efficiency and availability of its plants. 
  • The Sappi plant in Gratkorn, Austria, produces almost one million tons of double and triple coated quality paper.
  • It also produces 250,000 tons of chlorine-free bleached pulp annually.
  • With a format equipment capacity of 875,000 tons per year, it is the largest factory of the globally active paper manufacturer in Europe.

Reducing costs with a digital maintenance strategy

The paper is manufactured on two high-performance machines with production widths of six and eight and a half meters. Any unplanned interruption means high costs—which is why a proactive, digital maintenance strategy is critical to the business. 

“Any interruption to the production process due to unplanned downtime and operational failures costs us money. A condition-based and efficient maintenance strategy is therefore a business-critical factor,” says Robert Assigal, Business Process Engineer SAP PM, Sappi Austria Produktions-GmbH & Co. KG.
