The invention relates to a paper machine for producing paper that can be gravure printed from a fibrous stock suspension, and a related method. The paper machine includes a wire section, a pressing section, a drying section, and a winding section for winding the produced paper on a paper roll. Additionally, the paper machine includes a film press having a film roll for applying a coating color and a calender arranged downstream of the film press.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for producing a paper web or another fibrous web. According to said method, the fibrous web is impinged upon by pressure in the penultimate press nip and then in a last press nip of a press section. One face of the fibrous web is in contact with a smooth surface when penetrating the penultimate press nip while the other face of the fibrous web is in contact with a smooth surface the when penetrating the last press nip.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a paper machine for the production of a paper, board, tissue or other fibrous web (2), comprising a press section (1) having at least one press nip and comprising an impingement dryer (13) arranged immediately after the press section. The invention is characterized in that the paper machine has an applicator (17) for applying a coating color in the manner of a curtain (21) or for the film application (26) of coating color or for spraying (31) coating color on.
Abstract:
Machine for producing a fibrous material web and process for guiding the web through the machine. The machine includes a wire section, a drying section, arranged downstream of the wire section with regard to a web travel direction, having at least one free web draw, a first and second shoe press separated in the web travel direction, and an upper felt and a lower transfer belt arranged to guide the fibrous material web through the second shoe press. The lower transfer belt is structured and arranged to transfer the fibrous material web to the drying section, and the material web is guided in a closed draw from the wire section to a first free web draw, with regard to the web travel direction, in the drying section. At least one high-performance drying device is positioned before the first free web draw.
Abstract:
Apparatus and process for dewatering a material web. The apparatus includes at least one pressure chamber formed by at least four substantially parallel rolls, a device arranged to introduce a pressurized gas into the at least one pressure chamber, and the at least four substantially parallel rolls being displaceable relative to one another to change an effective area of the at least one pressure chamber. The material web is guided through the at least one pressure chamber. The process includes pressurizing at least one pressure chamber with a gas medium, guiding the material web through the pressure chamber, driving water out of the material web using gas pressure within the at least one pressure chamber, and changing an effective area of the pressure chamber so as to adjust a dewatering capacity.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for variably controlling fluid flow in a closed flow line, especially the flow of a pulp suspension through a headbox of a paper-making machine, includes guiding fluid through a cavity of a conduit having at least two different cross-sectional profiles. Fluid flow resistance is adjusted by changing the contour of an edge defined by the conduit and a transition step connecting the two cross-sections.
Abstract:
To regulate the basis weight cross section of the fiber suspension dispensed by the outlet of a headbox of a paper making machine onto the screen or screens of the following forming section, the headbox is sectioned across the width of the machine with individual first sections of fiber suspension across the width. The fiber suspension on the screen(s) in the following forming section is drained and the drained filtrate is collected in second sections respectively generally corresponding to the first sections of the headbox. The removed sectioned filtrate is recycled to the respective sections of the headbox and is mixed with the suspension normally entering the headbox to regulate and make more uniform the basis weight cross section of the fiber suspension.
Abstract:
A headbox for a paper machine is characterized by having: at least one machine-wide channel region which defines a main direction of flow; a region for the production of turbulence; a plurality of feed lines distributed over the machine width and discharging into the headbox channel region; an adjusting device in each feed line for controlling the quantity of flow; an angle .alpha. between the main direction of flow and the feed line; and the angle .alpha. being selected in such a manner that, regardless of the amount fed by the feed line, the total volumetric flow in the region directly downstream of the feed line remaining constant.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method and a corresponding plant for producing a fibrous web, in particular a paper web, paperboard web or tissue web. The formation of the fibrous web is defined online as a controlled variable and is held at a preselectable set-point level by way of an automatic formation control system.
Abstract:
Process and apparatus for improving a consistency cross-direction profile of a fiber web in the wet section. The process includes distributing a fiber suspension across a machine width from a headbox to one of on a wire and between two wires, adjusting a cross-sectional basis weight by sectionally mixing, across the machine width, a first suspension having a first solid content and a first percentage composition and a second suspension having second solid content that is one of lower and higher than the first solid content, and a second percentage composition of the solids content of the second suspension differs from the first percentage composition, and sectionally admixing at least a third suspension across the machine width, the third suspension having a solids content that is one of lower and higher than the solids content of at least one of the first and second solids content, and having a third percentage composition that differs from at least one of the first and second percentage compositions. The apparatus includes one of a first machine-wide feed and a first set of individual feeds for the first suspension, a second set of individual feeds for the second suspension, control devices coupled to the second set of individual feeds for regulating a flow of the second suspension, a turbulence generator, a headbox nozzle. At least a third set of individual feeds for a third suspension is positioned at least one of upstream from the turbulence generator and to act equally on each section across the machine width. The third suspension has a solids content that differs from the solids contents of the first and second suspensions, and additional control devices coupled to the third set of individual feeds for regulating a flow of the third suspension.
