Abstract:
A process and machine are disclosed for winding-up paper or cardboard webs (1) on winding tubes (14). The winding-up rollers (3) are pressed during winding with an adjustable force against a driven support roller (4) provided with a volume-compressible outer layer (6) at least 5 mm thick made of a cellular plastic material with a plurality of uniformly distributed pores and a compression module kappa lower than 10 MPa. The web (1) supplied to one winding-up roller (3) is twisted around an area of the circumference of the support roller (4) upstream of the nip (7) between the winding-up roller (3) and the support roller (4). The force with which a winding-up roller (3) is pressed against the support roller (4) is adjusted depending on the structure of the outer layer (6) to form a nip (7) with a minimum width b which depends on the final production speed. The web (1) that runs out of the nip (7) is then pulled with a force of at least 1 N/cm web width by means of an additional circumferential or central drive (13).
Abstract:
In winding machines for producing rolls (3), pressure roller systems are known which have a horizontal, vertically movable cross-head (8) to which a series of freely rotatable and individually movable roll segments (9) are secured side-by-side and with bolts parallel to the cross-head (8). In addition, there are means for adjusting the pressure exerted by the roll segments (9) on the rolls (3). According to the invention, into the bearing of each roll segment (9) on the cross-head (8) is integrated a component which either increases the bearing pressure as the distance between the roll segment (9) and the cross-head with an application force increasing depending on the distance or reduces said pressure as the distance increases with an increasing counter-force depending on the distance. Thus on the one hand the most uniform possible pressure on all rolls (3) is ensured and on the other negative effects owing to excessive differences in diameter between the rolls (3) are prevented.
Abstract:
To roll paper or cardboard sheets (1) into reels (3) known winders have devices to turn the reel (3) and generate tension along the sheet (1) during rolling, as well as a contact roll (4, 19) that contacts the reel (3) under pressure. The contact roll (4, 19) together with the reel (3) forms a nip through which the sheet (1) is fed towards the reel (3). According to the invention, so as to carry at least part of the reel weight, at least one additional support reel (16, 20, 25) is placed underneath the reel (3). This support reel extends parallel to the axis of the contact roll (4, 19), is mounted in such a way that it can rotate freely or can be switched to free-wheel position, and on its outer surface has a deformable coating (18, 24) made of a cellular plastic material comprising numerous evenly distributed pores and having a compression modulus kappa of less than 10 MPa.
Abstract:
In order to wind up webs of paper or card (1), winding machines with rollers are known which have a hollow-cylindrical support body (7) which is made of a rigid material and to the casing of which a deformable layer is applied. According to the invention, the deformable layer (9) consists of a cellular plastics material having a plurality of uniformly distributed pores of which the pore size is less than 5 mm, preferably between 0.05 mm and 1 mm. The compression modulus k of the material is less than 10 MPa. The roller according to the invention is preferably used in winding machines as a support roller (5) or pressure roller (6).
