    The document summarizes efforts to reduce stone cells (pieces of bark or other non-fiber contaminants) in pulp products. It reports that customer complaints about high stone cells have occurred. Current levels are above targets. The team's action plan is to study the primary and reject cleaning systems, analyze historic stone cell data, and perform maintenance on the disc filter to improve cleaner efficiency and help reduce stone cell counts. The goal is to meet customers' expectations of 35 or fewer stone cells per sample.

    Reduction of Stone Cells

    Process Champion : Simon Wiles


    Team Member: Zafar Hussain

    Current State
    The current situation is that our customers
    have complained about high Stone Cells
    (42/192 claims).
    The expectation of the customers is to/
    have stone cells around 35 (35/5g pulp).
    The maximum tolerance for stone cells is 50
    (50/5g pulp).

    SIPOC For Stone Cells

    Define Phase Summary

    To study the Primary cleaning system

    To study the Reject cleaning system

    To study the primary screens and reject screens

    To study & analyze the historic data of stone cells

    Action Plan
    Started building profiles around primary
    cleaners and reject system to monitor their
    efficiency
    Repairs and maintenance has been started
    on Disc filter, so that the cleaners pressure
    can be adjusted to achieve the cleaners
    efficiency
