Tekn dr Arne Asplund (1903–1993) was inventor of the Defibrator pulping refiner and the defibrator-method (also called Asplund-method) for pulping wooden chips.

Asplund was rewarded the "Gold medal" (Guldmedaljen) of the Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences (IVA) in 1947 for the invention and his further development of the defibrator-method for pulping wood and other fibre rich materials. He was later rewarded the "Great gold medal" (Stora guldmedaljen) from IVA in 1969 for his efforts on defibration technology.
