Abstract:
The present invention is directed to an apparatus and a method for unloading a stockpile with an elongated unloading bridge, which is provided at its both ends with support wheels, the unloading bridge being horizontally movable at least in an essentially transverse direction with respect to a longitudinal direction of the unloading bridge. The unloading bridge includes at least one car movable along the unloading bridge, the car comprising at least one rake extending essentially transversally with respect to a longitudinal direction of the unloading bridge and inclined to a position between the horizontal and the vertical. Characteristically, the unloading bridge includes at least two adjacent conveyor screws below the unloading bridge and extending between the ends of the unloading bridge, each conveyor screw being provided with a thread opposite to that of an adjacent conveyor screw, and each conveyor screw being rotatable in a direction opposite to that of an adjacent conveyor screw. Further, the conveyor screws are positioned adjacently so that a free space is left between them, and the threads and rotating directions of the conveyor screws have been arranged so that the conveyor screws are adapted to forming a bank in the free space between them.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method in a fiber web machine. In the method, a fabric (12) included in the fiber web machine is used for supporting a web (14) produced by the fiber web machine. Moreover, in the method the location of the fabric (12) is changed in the cross direction (CD) of the fiber web machine. The location is changed by means of oscillation, the amplitude (19) of which is kept so high that the area of impact (20) of the web (14) on the fabric (12) is wider than the width (21) of the web (14) throughout the lifetime of the fabric (12). The invention also relates to an arrangement in a fiber web machine, and to a software product.
Abstract:
A treatment equipment, which is intended to be installed in connection with a moving surface. The treatment equipment includes a frame and a blade holder formed from composite material as a single piece and connected to the frame. In addition, a blade is fitted to the blade holder, the bevelled edge belonging to which is arranged to be brought into contact with the moving surface by moving the blade holder. In the blade holder, there is also a separate backing blade, which is fitted at one edge into the blade holder, the other edge extending closer than the blade holder to the said bevelled edge.
Abstract:
A method and equipment for tail threading in a paper machine in which tail threading is carried out in stages: the web (w) is guided to the broke treatment at a selected dryer (C1), a cut (11) is formed in the web (w) to separate a narrow tail (A) from the rest of the web, i.e. the broke web (B), prior to the said dryer (c1), the edge (Bnull) opposite to the cut of the broke web is turned away from the cutting point to form an open draw (C) between the tail (A) and the broke web (B), the tail (A) is guided from the selected dryer (c1) to the following section while the broke web (B) is transferred further to the broke treatment, while travelling in a controlled manner, the tail (A) is widened to the full width and the broke web (B) is simultaneously reduced away.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method in leading a web threading tail particularly in a paper machine. In the method a device is used, which is moved close to a fabric transporting the web threading tail and by means of which the web threading tail is detached from the surface of the fabric. The web threading tail is transferred laterally relative to its direction of travel to the following web threading device, after which the device is moved away from the vicinity of the web threading tail. The transfer of the web threading tail in the cross direction of the paper machine takes place mechanically by pushing. The invention also related to a corresponding device.
Abstract:
A caring doctor blade for a paper/board machine having layers of fiberglass and carbon fibers, and a caring layer as a rigid laminated structure, where the caring layer has carbon fibers and grinding particles in direct proximity to the carbon fibers. The orientation of the fiberglass layers is parallel to the longitudinal axis of the blade. At least some of the layers that contain carbon fibers. The orientation of the carbon fibers is substantially diverging from the direction of the longitudinal axis of the blade. A method for manufacturing the doctor blade for a paper/board machine by a pultrusion method is also disclosed.
Abstract:
A method and an arrangement in tail threading in a paper machine, in which the paper web is dried in production by means of a plurality of dryer groups consisting of a dryer section, and in which tail threading the threading tail is cut, taken as wetted to the finishing device, and spread to its full width for production, and in which method, before the threading tail is take to the finishing device, the dryer section is kept in the settings of production operation or is set to otherwise correspond to production, except that a wetting process is started, in which the web is wetted at the full width for the duration of the tail threading, essentially before its cutting, to achieve an even moisturizing effect, and the wetting process is stopped after web is being spread.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for beginning the formation of a paper web on a traveling forming wire, or between a pair of converging forming wires, includes a headbox on a papermaking machine for projecting a stock stream onto the forming wire, or between the forming wires over the porous face surface of a forming shoe. The forming wire or wires are looped to travel in a continuous path, and within at least one of the looped forming wires is the forming shoe, which is porous by way of grooves or openings over at least a portion of its face surface. The grooves are in the surface of the forming shoe which engages the inner surface of the looped forming wire to define a portion of the path of travel of the forming wire adjacent the headbox from which the stock stream is projected onto, or between, the forming wire(s). The grooves extend in the surface facing the forming wire from a point downstream of the leading edge in the nose portion of the face surface of forming shoe in the direction of forming wire travel. The grooves are angled at a small angle relative to the direction of forming wire travel. The grooves or openings receive water through the forming wire to gradually reduce the amount of water in the stock to control the initial stage of the formation of the nascent paper web on the forming wire over the forming shoe.
Abstract:
A composite-construction roll, includes a roll frame reinforced with reinforcing fibers, and a method for manufacturing such a roll. There is at least one optical fiber among the reinforcing fibers and the roll includes terminals arranged in this optical fiber for a transmitter and a receiver for measuring a selected optical quantity from the fiber.
Abstract:
A doctor blade for a fiber web machine (10) includes a blade section (11) and a fastening detent section (12). In the cross-sectional plane, the blade section (11) is asymmetric while the fastening detent section (12) is substantially symmetric so that the doctor blade (10) can be installed in two opposite positions for providing two different functions. The invention also relates to a doctor arrangement in a fiber web machine.
