October 2022: Feedback from a client a good year after the launch of dr.corr
In July 2021, dr.corr was installed at Cartodelta in Tarragona, Spain, by our project engineer Giulio Fantini.
A good year later, Josep Maria Profitós, the general director of Cartodelta, S.L. in Spain is summarizing the success of working with dr.corr as follows:
“The team behind dr.corr allows the customer to have an innovative system with a graphic design that makes the planner’s work easy and intuitive for the operators at the machines.
The added value of dr.corr compared to its competitors is certainly the high professionalism of its staff which allows for rapid, safe and effective implementation. I would like to underline the great dedication of Giulio Fantini in allowing us to achieve all these goals in a simple, fast and above all efficient way.”
September 2022: New in dr.corr:
Benchmarking of Conversion Machines
Wouldn’t it be good to know how your conversion machine performs in comparison to the same machine in other plants?
In case other plants manage to work with the same machine more efficiently, wouldn’t it be good to share experiences and learn from others?
Benchmarkings are a good way to compare performances and to determine best practice examples.
If you are willing to share anonymized data of your machine, you will also gain access to anonymized key performance indicators (KPIs) from other machines of the same type in the dr.corr universe.

2021
December 2021: The End of a Successful Year
Despite the worldwide pandemic, the dr.corr team has had a very successful and busy year 2021.
We thank the employees in our 77 customer plants for their trust and support.
We also thank our ambitious and motivated team for 26 new installations within this year in 12 different countries in Europe and South America, half of them being plants with a corrugator.
The software itself continues to grow and now includes a drcorr.live application, a forecast module for the machine load, pallet output in corrugator scheduling, a holding area, a capacity reservation feature, a multiple monitor option for planners and a graphical truck loading algorithm. In addition, dr.corr started this year to offer the possibility to measure and report the energy consumption of the machines in your plant.
With several plants already in the pipeline, we are looking forward to 2022.

May 2021: New in dr.corr: Energy Counters to Measure the Energy Consumption
Dr.corr is now able to measure and report the energy consumption of the machines in your plant.

dr.corr connected to three corrugators on the same week, in three different countries, and all were live and on-line on Monday!
Papier Karl GmbH in Germany started production on their all new Fosber corrugator, at Steirerpack in Austria we linked to their tried and proven Agnati machine, while at Glomma Papp AS in Norway, the connection was established to their Escada dry end controller.
Congratulations to Daniel Weigand, Dessislava Vintcheva, Steffen Beeth and Giulio Fantini who excelled at their jobs once more!

2020
December 2020: The End of a Successful Year

April 2019: New in dr.corr: WIP Analysis
Every planner knows the situation that the intermediate storage area is overloaded, perhaps even the corrugator has to be stopped because nothing works anymore. The new Work-In-Progress (WIP) Analysis in dr.corr detects these situations before they occur and helps to prevent them.
