Abstract:
A method for modernizing a existing multiroll calender, having at least one stack of calender rolls (10, 20), each stack comprising at least two calender rolls (11, 12, 13, 14, 21, 22, 23, 24) and at least one of the calender rolls being a smooth-surfaced press-roll (12, 22). In an existing multiroll calender the smooth-surfaced press roll (12, 22) is replaced by an ultra thermo roll that is a thermo roll with a diameter substantially the same or less than the thermo roll to be replaced, so that the surface temperature of the ultra thermo roll when heated is at least 110° C., and has at least 10° C. higher than the surface temperature of the existing roll with the same heating fluid temperature and having flow channels arranged in such a way that vibration excitation is minimized, by being arranged to form a spiral geometry in the mantle.
Abstract:
A processing device and method applying the same for processing a coated or uncoated fibrous web is provided. The device comprises a belt configured to extend around a guiding element, at least one counter-element being disposed outside said belt to provide a contact area with the belt, such that the belt and the counter-element establish therebetween a web processing zone for passing a web to be processed therethrough. The processing zone length is defined by the disposition of the belt's guiding element and/or by the configuration of the counter-elements. The contact pressure applied to a web in the processing zone is within the range of between about 0.01 MPa and about 200 MPa.
Abstract:
A paper or board mill includes a drying section, which includes at least one drying cylinder group and at least one impingement drying unit (PK). The method uses a turbine engine (10), the combustion gases (G1) of which are conducted at least into the impingement drying unit (PK) as impingement air.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a calender intended to calender a paper or board web (4), which calander comprising a calendering section, in which there are at least two members, such as rolls (1, 2, 3), in nip contact, between which the web (4) being calendered is arranged to run. For reducing the moisture and heat leaving the web (4) while it is being calendered a wall (16, 17), covering at least part of the calendering section, is formed from the web (4) being calendered by changing its direction of travel.
Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a calendar roll in which a continuous band of filler material is wound onto an axle until a desired diameter for the roll is obtained, and then an elastic coating is applied to an outermost surface of the band, i.e., the outermost layer of windings. An adhesive agent may be applied onto the band such that adjacent windings of the band adhere to one another during winding of the band onto the axle. Adjacent windings of the band in an uppermost layer of windings may be welded together to provide a foundation for the elastic coating. The calender roll includes an axle, a uniform and continuous band of filler material wound onto the axle to provide the roll with a desired diameter, and an elastic polymer coating arranged on an outermost layer of windings of the band on the axle.

Abstract:
The invention relates to a method of making surface-sized paper/board. The web to be treated in the method is after surface sizing passed to a treatment process for providing a desired drying shrinkage and/or increase of drying stresses to create thereby a desired effect on the flexural strength and/or bulk of paper/board.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for treating a fibrous web downstream of slitting. In the method, the finishing of a fibrous web for providing desired properties is performed by using one or more finishing units, at least one of which comprises a web processing apparatus provided with a metal belt.
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:
The invention relates to a method for adjusting the properties of the polymer coating (2) of a roll or a belt (3), whereby the roll or the belt is used for calendering a fibrous web (4) in a roll nip (N), which is formed between the roll or the belt and its backing roll (5), whereby the roll or the belt has a polymer coating comprising fibrous material (1). In the method, the thermal elongation coefficient and/or thermal conductivity of the polymer coating (2) are adjusted by directing the fibre direction of the fibrous material (1).
