The device comprises pneumatic separation means (SP) adapted to direct a fluid jet (J) toward a pre-incision line (p) which separates the last sheet (LS) of a log (RO) in the course of formation from the first sheet (FS) of a subsequent log to be formed. The pneumatic separation means (SP) are inside the guide roller (RA) and the latter has an outer surface (72) with a plurality of through holes (73) allowing the fluid jet (J) produced by the pneumatic separation means (SP) to be directed towards the pre-incision lines (p). The device comprises suction means (200, 201) arranged downstream of the separation means (SP) relative to a direction (K) of rotation of the guide roller (RA). The suction means (200, 201) are inside the guide roller (RA). The suction means (200, 201) provoke a suction through the holes (73).

The means (D) for moving the reels comprise pneumatic means intended to pressurize a space (S) inside the stack of reels, in which said space includes the interface between an uppermost reel of the stack and the underlying reel, and gripping means configured and controlled to perform grip and release of the highest reel in the stack respectively.
Abstract:
Paper converting plant, including means for producing logs of paper material starting from one or more paper webs fed by corresponding reels, an embossing unit, a bridge crane with arms provided with grippers, and a rewinder that produces logs using the webs coming from the embossing unit, wherein the embossing unit is arranged to be configured in a first use configuration in which one or more embossing rollers positioned inside it are stably locked to respective support means and a second removal configuration in which said one or more embossing rollers are disengaged from said support means and can be extracted from the embossing unit, the plant also includes a storing unit in which are stored one or more embossing rolls according to a predefined storage order such that each embossing roller occupies a predetermined position in the same storage unit, each embossing roller having a respective longitudinal axis.
Abstract:
Method for the handling of parent reels in paper converting plants, comprising the following steps: (a) providing at least one platform with a base adapted to support a parent reel in a waiting station and at least one unwinder (S) adapted to receive said reel in an unwinding station where the parent reel is unwound; (b) positioning a parent reel (1) on the platform at the waiting station; (c) transporting the parent reel (1) along a predefined path from said platform to said unwinder (S) by means of a bridge crane (CP) equipped with movable arms (BC). The step (c) is preceded by a first step consisting in the temporary association of two pins (P) to the arms (BC) of the bridge crane (CP) and by a second step consisting in inserting the two pins (P) in two opposite bases of the parent reel (1) using the same arms (BC); and the step (c) involves the transport of the reel (1) along a path comprising at least one ascending or descending portion with the pins (P) thus inserted into the parent reel (1).
Abstract:
Support pin for supporting reels of paper material, comprising an outer side (PX) and an inner side (PN), with the inner side (PN) that is adapted to be inserted into a reel (1) of paper material and with the outer side (PX) that remains on the outside of the same reel (1) when the inner side (PN) is inside the reel (1), said outer side (PX) being provided with a hooking portion (3) adapted to be engaged by means (CP) adapted to vertically move the pin (P). The outer side (PX) of the pin (P) is constituted by a shank (2) whose longitudinal axis coincides with the longitudinal axis (x-x) of the pin (P) and said hooking portion comprises an eyelet formed on the shank (2) and delimited by two parallel arms (30) that emerge radially from the shank (2) and are joined by a body (31) parallel to said longitudinal axis (x-x).
