Maximize uptime and efficiency in tissue production
Detect defects early, prevent web breaks, and trace their causes with ISRA VISION’s integrated inspection and monitoring solutions.
Tissue production leaves no room for error: a single unnoticed defect can trigger a costly web break, production stoppage, or material loss. From large holes, edge cracks and middle cut defects to subtle anomalies caused by worn felts, blades, or sieves, every irregularity threatens machine stability and product quality.
ISRA VISION’s integrated solution — combining Web Inspection Systems (WIS) and Web Break Monitoring (WBM) — detects critical defects early and links them directly to their root causes. This precise real-time defect tracking allows operators to act before issues escalate, ensuring predictive maintenance, optimized service cycles, and stable, efficient production.
Why early detection matters
Defects that appear minor at the tissue machine can cause severe breaks in converting. With ISRA VISION, you gain:
- Reliable detection of critical and low-contrast defects in real-time
- Early identification of holes, cracks, and edge issues before they lead to breaks
- Clear root cause tracing across the entire production line
- Actionable insights to optimize service intervals and reduce maintenance cost
Web Break Monitoring – Tracing the true root cause
Web Break Monitoring (WBM) focuses on what happens when a break occurs. High-speed cameras and sensors capture the exact moment of the break and pinpoint its origin—whether it’s an edge crack, a sticky deposit, or a repeating defect from upstream equipment.
Instead of treating every break as an isolated incident, WBM reveals the underlying reasons behind stoppages. This makes troubleshooting faster, prevents recurring breakdowns, and helps mills optimize their maintenance cycles.
Why it matters: Web break monitoring transforms unexpected stoppages into opportunities for process learning and improvement.
Web inspection – Detecting defects before they escalate
Web Inspection Systems (WIS) continuously monitor the tissue machine for surface and structural defects. Using advanced imaging and classification, they detect critical anomalies such as large holes, edge cracks, sticky deposits, and repeating patterns—all of which can cause severe breakdowns later in the process.
Even small, easily overlooked issues—like tiny holes or spots caused by blade, sieve, or felt wear—are precisely captured and classified. This enables operators to take corrective action early and avoid defects from turning into web breaks or quality complaints.
Why it matters: Web inspection ensures stable machine operation, reduces waste, and provides a reliable foundation for consistent tissue quality from production to converting—ultimately enhancing process efficiency
Why the combination is the real deal
On their own, both systems add value. But together, WIS and WBM deliver complete transparency across the production line:
- Defects are detected as soon as they appear
- Breaks are directly linked to their root causes in real time
- Every anomaly can be traced across the tissue machine and into converting
- Predictive maintenance becomes possible, reducing unplanned downtime
Why it matters: Web inspection ensures stable machine operation, reduces waste, and provides the reliable foundation for consistent tissue quality from production downstream to converting.
This integrated approach empowers tissue manufacturers to maximize uptime, cut operational costs, and ensure consistent premium quality—all while staying ahead of customer demands.
Detecting what matters most
Our inspection systems identify defects that directly impact uptime and quality:
- Large holes & edge cracks → prevent breaks on the machine and in converting
- Tiny holes & spots → reveal wear on blades, sieves, or felts
- Edge-related issues → detected at trim or middle cut before they affect converting
Shared camera technology allows Web Inspection and Break Monitoring to run in a single setup, minimizing hardware costs while maximizing ROI.

From tissue machine to converting full traceability
By synchronizing inspection data with break monitoring, ISRA VISION provides a continuous defect history:
- Defects are tracked from their origin across the entire line
- Breaks are linked to their true causes in real time
- Operators gain full transparency into how defects evolve during production
This ensures smooth converting, reduced downtime, and greater production stability.
