- 8 standard sections loaded
- 6 lockout energy sources
- 5 reference standards
How the work is done in paper and wood
Large continuous-process machines with rolls, steam and a lot of inertia: what turns keeps turning for minutes after the stop. Lockout waits for the inertia to die.
The jobs that set the pace
- Clothing and forming fabric change
- Roll and cylinder cleaning
- Pulp and chemical recovery
- Converting line maintenance
- Chipping and timber handling
The sections it comes with as standard
- Paper machine · wet section
- Drying section
- Winder
- Cutting line
- Wood chip silos
- Dust extraction
- Biomass boiler
- Reel warehouse
Lockout/tagout, with isolation point and verification
The dashboard does not ask “what energies does your equipment have?”: in the paper and wood profile they are already there, each one with where it is isolated and how you check that it is isolated. It is what an inspection asks to see in writing.
| Energy | Isolation point | Verification |
|---|---|---|
| Electrical | Section isolator | Verification of the absence of voltage |
| Steam | Dryer header valve | Bleed and surface temperature |
| Pneumatic | Winder air valve | Bleed and gauge at 0 bar |
| Hydraulics | Press power pack | Accumulator discharge and chocking |
| Stored mechanical energy | Reel chocking and roller lockout | Check that the reel is chocked |
| Combustible dust | Extraction system stopped and isolated | Prior cleaning and concentration measurement |
The high-risk procedures, written down
Five procedures specific to paper and wood, written in the vocabulary of the sector and available inside the dashboard so you can adapt them to your plant.
Lockout with residual inertia
Rolls and flywheels keep turning after the stop: you wait, you brake and you check it is stopped before locking out.
Work on the wet end
Steam and condensate: bleed, cool down and check the temperature before opening.
Confined spaces in the pulper and chests
Agitators locked out and atmosphere measured: the pulper is an industrial mixer.
Hot work near paper
Dust and the reel catch with a single spark: permit, screening and a fire watch afterwards.
Entrapment in converting
Rewinders and slitters: interlocks verified and never thread the web while running without a tool.

- Dust explosion protection document
- Dust accumulation cleaning plan
- Pressure equipment certificate
What the dashboard does with all this
Contractors and coordination of activities
Contractors working on site join free, upload their documentation and the traffic light decides who can work. RD 171/2004 coordination with minutes and signature.
Permits with QR codes
Work permit with a printable notice: in the field it is scanned and signed from a phone. LOTO warning when the job calls for it.
Maintenance and OEE
Queue prioritised by criticality, statutory maintenance schedules with their date, counters based on real usage and an OEE panel per line with a Pareto of stoppages.
Personnel and training
Fitness for work, training and health surveillance by job role, with the medical data kept outside the dashboard by design.
Open it with the paper and wood profile and compare it with your folder
The demo opens with no card and no sales call. You choose this same sector and walk into a plant that looks like yours, with sample data you can play with without breaking anything.
The other industries in the dashboard
Each profile brings its own vocabulary, its own areas, its own energies and its own procedures. There are sixteen.
