Abstract

The current method relates to an on-line characterization of paper or paper products, such as tissue or other crepe paper products. The method uses an imaging source wherein one or more images are obtained of the sheets surface or topographical area or region, or the image is of an edge of a formed sheet. The one or more images are enhanced and analyzed using various techniques and metrics for characterizing the structure of the formed sheet. The information provides for real time adjustments on the machine.
