Definitions

  • the invention relates to a calender with a Roll stack between a hard and each working gap formed by a soft roller and one alternating gap formed between two soft rollers has for the treatment of a paper web, which in the working columns for a dwell time each Is exposed to compressive stress.
  • Such calenders are for example from the prospectus "The new super calender concepts" from Sulzer Papertec Krefeld GmbH from May 1994. You serve to satin coated and uncoated papers, for example printing paper or silicone base paper.
  • Metal rollers are referred to as “hard” rollers a smooth and hard surface that essentially are responsible for the smoothness and shine.
  • Soft” rolls are rolls with a elastic or soft surface that essentially ensure even compaction. Of the Alternating gap is required so that both sides of the Paper web experience an approximately even treatment. It is common to use a calender with 12 to 16 rolls use, with the alternating gap in the lower Half of the stack is located.
  • the invention has for its object a calender of the type described at the outset, to a large extent the same satin results for a particular one Paper type, but a smaller one Construction height and its manufacturing and operating costs are lower.
  • the roll stack has less than 10 rolls that the alternating gap is arranged in the middle of the stack is, i.e. with an even number of rollers between the two middle rollers and between an odd number of rollers the middle roller and an adjacent roller, and that the effective weight of the rollers and possibly so connected parts is so small that the sum of the Line loads of the working column above the alternating gap at least 80% of the total of the line loads of the Working gap below the alternating gap is.
  • the calender Since the calender has a lower overall height, needed one also lower buildings, what the set-up costs significantly lowers. Furthermore, the calender is due the lower number of rollers in both the manufacture and inexpensive to operate.
  • the roll stack has eight rollers.
  • Such an 8-roll calender which is above and below the alternating gap
  • the Web treatment below the alternating gap is in both Cases the same.
  • the web treatment above the Alternating slit is eliminated with four working slits carried out; this is, however around the working column with the least amount of deformation.
  • the calendering performance can be improved even more take into account that the sum of the products from dwell time and medium compressive stress in the working columns above the alternating gap at least 80% of the Total of the products mentioned in the working columns below of the exchange gap. Because dwell time and Compressive stress are two key factors in the Paper deformation.
  • rollers be light in weight. This happens in the case of the hard rollers in that they have the smallest possible Get diameter. With the soft rollers should be used instead of the compact and heavy rollers Use lighter structures with paper cover.
  • the soft Rolls contain voids.
  • the soft Rolls contain voids.
  • hollow tubes provided with a cover are considered.
  • the soft roller a fiber-reinforced plastic, such as epoxy resin.
  • fiber reinforcement especially with Carbon fiber, can be stability and light weight unite with each other.
  • top and / or bottom roller one is soft roller. If both end rollers are soft, the result is a 6-roll calender. If only one end roller is soft, you can stack rolls with an odd number of rolls provide. Soft end rollers can also be used lighter weight than hard end rollers, what the adjustment of the line load totals above and relieved below the exchange gap.
  • roller jacket is made of lamellar graphite cast iron, so a cast iron with lamellar Graphite. Its wall thickness can be compared a cast iron roller jacket reduced by almost 50% will.
  • this cast iron is not very wear-resistant.
  • the cover made of elastic plastic as Wear protection layer serves. It is sufficient for this purpose a layer thickness between 8 and 15 mm, preferably 10 mm.
  • the upper and / or lower rollers can advantageously be heated. It is therefore already in the first and also in the last gap Heat can be supplied on both sides of the paper web Offers correction options.
  • heating by means of steam can be used here take place, which can be fed with overpressure.
  • This type of heating is much simpler and cheaper than heating with oil, like in a heated deflection compensation roller required would.
  • top and / or bottom roller is a deflection controllable roll in which a roller jacket on hydrostatic support elements a penetrating, non-rotatable support is supported.
  • the deflection control allows the line load across the width of the paper web to keep constant in order to achieve a very even satin finish to achieve.
  • the calender 1 illustrated in FIG. 1 has one Roll stack, which consists of eight rolls, namely a heatable, deflection-controllable hard Top roller 2, a soft roller 3, a heatable hard roller 4, a soft roller 5, a soft Roller 6, a heatable hard roller 7, a soft one Roller 8 and a heated, deflection controllable hard bottom roller 9. Result in this way six working columns 10 to 15, each by one hard roller and a soft roller are limited, and in the middle of which is an alternating gap 16, which is divided by two soft Rollers 5 and 6 is limited.
  • a paper web 17 is fed from a paper machine 18, passes under the guidance of idlers 19 the working column 10 to 12, the alternating gap 16 and the working column 13 to 15, whereupon it in a kelvorraum 20 is wound.
  • the top three Working columns 10 to 12 is the paper web with the one side, in the three lower working columns 13 to 15 with the other side on the hard rollers, see above that the desired surface structure on both sides, for example Gloss or smoothness is achieved.
  • the top sum should be at least Amount to 80% of the lower sum.
  • the calender had a width of 8.5 m and a web speed of 800 m / min. Alone by saving weight on the soft rollers the sum of the products reached around 40% mean compressive stress p and dwell time t in the working gaps a value above the alternating gap 16 of 82% of the total of the products in the below the Alternating gap working columns. By more of the measures listed can be done in the vertical Stack even higher values, for example 83 to 86% achieve. With special constructions such as the inclined one Stack, higher values are also achievable.
  • the compressive stress p in the working gap was between 45 and 60 N / mm 2 .
  • the heated rollers 2, 4, 7 and 9 were given a surface temperature between 100 and 150 ° C.
  • the diameter of the soft rollers and the elasticity of their coating 34 were chosen so that there was a gap width of about 2 to 15 mm , preferably about 8 mm. Depending on the web speed, this leads to dwell times t in each working gap of 0.1 to 0.9, preferably 0.2 to 0.5 ms. It is preferred if the temperature T is only slightly above the lower limit, for example 110 ° C., if the compressive stress p is only slightly above the lower limit, for example 50 N / mm 2 . Compared to a 12-roll calender, slight increases in thermal and mechanical energy are therefore sufficient to achieve the same calendering results in an 8-roll calender.
  • a 4-roll calender can also be used on the same principle be built up for simpler applications sufficient, but also one on both sides causes approximately the same satin finish.
  • the roll stack illustrated in FIG. 4 has one soft top roller 102 and a soft bottom roller 109 on.
  • the alternating gap located exactly in the middle 116 is limited by two soft rollers 105 and 106.
  • Two hard rollers 103 and 107, which end rollers 102 and 109 are adjacent with water vapor is supplied with overpressure, heated.
  • FIG. 5 shows a 9-roll calender, which is a soft top roller 202, but a hard bottom roller 209 has.
  • the changing gap 216 is between the soft middle roller 205 and the soft neighboring roller 206 arranged. Otherwise change heated ones hard center rolls with soft rolls.
  • roller shells can be similar to be constructed in Fig. 3 and for example a support tube have spheroidal or lamellar graphite cast iron and wear a cover made of elastic plastic.
