Abstract

An apparatus for controlling the degree of fiber variations in paper sheet has a formation meter for receiving an image of transmitted light on one side of an area of paper from a light source located on the other side of the area of paper, an image processing computing element for introducing the image from said formation meter for image processing and a fuzzy control unit for calculating and outputting optimum J/W ratio, optimum foil angle, and optimum deflector pushing degree and angle on the basis of results of image processing from said image processing computing element.
