Abstract:
The invention relates to a system for transporting a fibre web (47) through a dry end of a fibre web processing machine from a drying section (1) to a reeling section (2) of the machine. According to the invention, the system comprises one or a plurality of groups of air modules, wherein each group of air modules is arranged for supplying and evacuating air from a predetermined, localized zone along the web run of the dry end, and wherein each group of air modules comprises at least one air supply module (9) being arranged for supplying air to the localized zone; and at least one air exhaust module (10) being arranged for evacuating air from the localized zone, wherein the air flow-rate of said at least one air supply module is balanced by the air flow-rate of said at least one air exhaust module such that dust-laden air is prevented from escaping the localized zone by other means than through said at least one air exhaust module.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for passing a web (W) in connection with a finishing device of a paper or board machine, in which method the web (W) is passed from a preceding treatment stage to the finishing device in which the web (W) is finished in the finishing device and from which finishing device the web (W) is pased further to a subsequent treatment stage. The web (W) is brought to a roll (11; 14) of the finishing device as supported substantially before a nip area (N1; N2). The web (W) is passed from the circumference of a roll (12; 15) of the finishing device as substantially supported after the nip area (N1; N2). The invention also relates to a device for passing a web in connection with a finishing device of a paper machine. The web (W) can be brought by means of the device to the circumference of a roll (11; 14) of the finishing device substantially before a nip area (N1; N2) and/or the web (W) can be passed from the circumference of a roll (12; 15) of the finishing device substantially after the nip area (N1; N2).
Abstract:
An arrangement in a calender for guiding a paper web (W) from one nip (N) to another nip and for doctoring a calender roll (1, 2) has a doctor (4) supported by a web (W) guide means (5). The doctor (4) includes at least one stationary and convex guide surface (51) which receives the web from one nip (N) of the calender and over and on which the web is guided towards the other nip of the calender, so that between the guide surface and the web there is a medium layer which carries the web.
Abstract:
A web guidance device for a calender and a method of threading a web through a calender. The web guidance device is for a roll stack having several rolls which form a plurality of nips, and includes a movable web guidance device which is fixable in at least one insertion position and arranged on at least one side of the roll stack, wherein the web guidance device guides a beginning of the web through the roll stack. The method is for threading a material web through a calender which has a roll stack having at least a first nip and a second nip, and includes feeding a web beginning through a first nip from one side of the roll stack, engaging the web beginning on the other side of the roll stack with a web guidance device, and guiding the web beginning to a second nip with the web guidance device.
Abstract:
The invention concerns an arrangement of threading of a paper web (W) in a supercalender, which comprises an upper roll (12), a lower roll (13), and a stack of rolls consisting of intermediate rolls (14 . . . 23) and fitted between said upper and lower roll. The rolls (12 . . . 23) in the calender arm in nip contact (N1 . . . N11) with one another. At the sides of the stack of rolls, alternatingly at the left side and at the right side, a take-out leading roll (101 . . . 110) has been fitted at each intermediate roll (14 . . . 23). The arrangement of threading comprises at least one loop of a transfer belt (Z), which is penetrable by air and which runs outside the edge of the paper web (W) through at least two nips (N1 . . . N11) in the calender. The transfer belt (Z) passes the lead-in strip (W1) of the paper web through at least one nip (N1 . . . N11) in the calender. In addition to this, the arrangement of threading comprises at least one suction box (201 . . . 205; 210 . . . 219), which is placed on a free run of the paper web (W) and of the transfer belt (Z) between intermediate rolls (14 . . . 23) and takeout leading rolls (101 . . . 110) in the calender. The lead-in strip is kept in contact with the transfer belt by means of the suction of a suction box.
Abstract:
An apparatus for producing a web of fibrous material includes a roll having incisions with a depth of 0.01-2.00 mm, a width of 0.01-2.00 mm, and a pitch 0.01-10.00 mm, and rotated at a peripheral velocity v1 equal to the velocity of an upstream apparatus unit; a belt stretched between transmission rollers that advances at a velocity v2 less than v1, wherein v1/v2 lies between 1.05 and 1.40; a presser roller rotating at a peripheral velocity v2, associated with a presser system acting to press the belt against the metal roll with a pressure of 1-200 kg per centimeter; and a system that feeds a sheet of pliable fibrous material between the belt and the roll, the belt having a longitudinal elongation of no more than 5%, dimensional stability along its entire length, a thickness of 1-10 cm, and a hardness 24-70° Shore.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus in ropeless tail threading in a multi-roll calender is disclosed wherein the threading tail is guided through the multi-roll calender in such a way that, before the multi-roll calender, the threading tail is guided first of all to the broke processing and then cut when the tail threading begins. The tail threading takes place in stages, so that at least once during the tail threading the threading tail in connection with the multi-roll calender is guided to broke processing and cut, after which the tail threading is continued, once the previous stage has succeeded.
Abstract:
Web flutter is suppressed by means of one or more foils along the path of movement of the web which may be porous, such as tissue, whether creped or not, or may be substantially non-porous. For porous web, the foil may be imperforate. For non-porous web, the foil may be foraminous. As the web travels at high speed in adjacently spaced relation to the foil, surface air pressure tends to be greater on the surface of the web opposite the web surface which faces the foil, thus tending to thrust the travelling web toward the foil, and thus stabilizing web travel and suppressing tendency for the web to flutter as it travels freely between supports such as a dryer and a calender.
