A method for caliper profile break recovery in a paper machine that is operable to produce a paper sheet, the method comprising: determining one or more setpoint changes for one or more induction heating actuators that are operable to adjust a caliper profile of the paper sheet, and outputting the one or more setpoint changes to the one or more induction heating actuators; wherein determining the one or more setpoint changes comprises: making larger or more frequent setpoint changes when operating in a first mode; and making smaller or less frequent setpoint changes when operating in a second mode; wherein making the smaller or less frequent setpoint changes comprises determining slow setpoint changes using control logic of a break recovery control module; wherein making the larger or more frequent setpoint changes comprises increasing a rate of change of the slow setpoint changes using a gain unit of the break recovery control module to generate fast setpoint changes; and wherein the method further comprises: entering the first mode after the paper sheet has broken and been rethreaded through the paper machine; and controlling whether the slow or fast setpoint changes are output by the break recovery control module using a mode selector. determining one or more setpoint changes for one or more induction heating actuators that are operable to adjust a caliper profile of the paper sheet, and outputting the one or more setpoint changes to the one or more induction heating actuators; wherein determining the one or more setpoint changes comprises: making larger or more frequent setpoint changes when operating in a first mode; and making smaller or less frequent setpoint changes when operating in a second mode; wherein making the smaller or less frequent setpoint changes comprises determining slow setpoint changes using control logic of a break recovery control module; wherein making the larger or more frequent setpoint changes comprises increasing a rate of change of the slow setpoint changes using a gain unit of the break recovery control module to generate fast setpoint changes; and wherein the method further comprises: entering the first mode after the paper sheet has broken and been rethreaded through the paper machine; and controlling whether the slow or fast setpoint changes are output by the break recovery control module using a mode selector. making larger or more frequent setpoint changes when operating in a first mode; and making smaller or less frequent setpoint changes when operating in a second mode; wherein making the smaller or less frequent setpoint changes comprises determining slow setpoint changes using control logic of a break recovery control module; wherein making the larger or more frequent setpoint changes comprises increasing a rate of change of the slow setpoint changes using a gain unit of the break recovery control module to generate fast setpoint changes; and wherein the method further comprises: entering the first mode after the paper sheet has broken and been rethreaded through the paper machine; and controlling whether the slow or fast setpoint changes are output by the break recovery control module using a mode selector. entering the first mode after the paper sheet has broken and been rethreaded through the paper machine; and controlling whether the slow or fast setpoint changes are output by the break recovery control module using a mode selector.
