Precision Manufacturing for Dilution Water Valves

In CD-profiling systems precision manufacturing makes the difference.

In the paper industry, every micron counts – and Tasowheel’s advanced production capabilities ensure that QCS components meet the highest demands. Alongside standard solutions, tailor-made parts are part of our daily work.

Our partner in Germany KPNB has recurring business with specialty paper producer Pfleiderer Teisnach GmbH & Co. KG in Bavaria, mostly requiring tailor-made parts and equipment.

A recent example of Tasowheel tailored expertise: Pfleiderer Teisnach approached KPNB with a specific requirement:

The heads of the dilution valves in their headbox had worn out over time and needed to be replaced. They were looking for high-quality replacements made from stainless steel, with a focus on long-term durability and precise fit.

Tasowheel provided the solution:

1. 3D Scanning & Reverse Engineering: Even without technical drawings, the original parts were scanned and digitally reconstructed for accurate reproduction.

2. Material Optimization: By switching from brass to stainless steel, the new components offered significantly improved durability for continuous operation in demanding environments.

3. Perfect Fit: The newly manufactured valve heads met all dimensional and functional requirements, ensuring seamless integration into the existing system.

4. Fast and Professional Execution: From the initial request to final delivery, the entire process was carried out efficiently – and the customer was highly satisfied with the outcome.

So much that currently another tailor-made solution is in progress for flow deflectors in the reject chamber of a cleaner plant.

This case highlights Tasowheel’s strength in delivering precision-engineered components that match individual customer needs – even in complex retrofit scenarios.

Tasowheel Oy with over 40 years of experience, is the original manufacturer of complete Quality Control Systems. We deliver turnkey QCS projects for paper, board and converting machines.
