Abstract:
The invention relates to a chipper knife of thetype that is adapted to be mounted in chippers which have a rotatable tool, in the form of a disc, drum or frustoconical member, on which are mounted a plurality of such chipper knives to provide, during rotation of the tool and simultaneous feeding of pieces of wood to the same, material-cutting working or disintegrating of the pieces of wood into chips by means of at least one cutting edge (1, 1 '). At least a first side of the chipper knife has a raw, unworked surface or working stripes in the longitudinal direction of the chipper knife, that is substantially parallel to the cutting edge. This first side also has a thickened cutting edge portion (5, 5') in the area next to the cutting edge, which edge portion has working stripes in the transverse direction of the chipper knife, at an angle to the cutting edge. The invention also relates to a method of manufacturing such a chipper knife.
Abstract:
A method to control a manufacturing process for cellulose, pulp or similar by measuring the bulk density of the chips supplied to the process. A representative volume of the supplied chips are sampled and supplied to a measuring method, during which the sampled volume is measured as to the dimensions of the chips contained in the volume, the chip bulk density being possibly calculated by means of the measured values. The thus calculated chip bulk density is used to control the forthcoming chip treatment in the process.
