Definitions

  • the invention concerns a paper machine, comprising a press section and a dryer section, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the structure of paper in particular of printing paper, must also be symmetric.
  • Good printing properties required from printing paper mean good smoothness, evenness and certain absorption properties of both faces.
  • the properties of paper, in particular the symmetry of density, are affected considerably by the operation of the press section of a paper machine, which operation also has a decisive significance for the evenness of the profiles of the paper in the cross direction and in the machine direction.
  • the first nip in a press of the SymPress IITM type is a two-felt nip, and therein the upper roll is a suction roll, by the effect of whose vacuum the web follows the upper felt, which is, at the same time, the pick-up felt.
  • This solution operates well in a SymPress IITM press.
  • the holding zone subjected to a vacuum starts from the first nip and continues up to the following nip, and the level of the vacuum has been arranged to be adjustable. Further, the coverage of the lower felt on the upper felt after the first nip has been regulated such that the runnability is good and that rewetting is minimized.
  • a roll nip in which one of the rolls is a suction roll limits the linear load to a maximal level of 100...150 kN/m.
  • the linear load can be raised up to 300...400 kN/m (max. 1500...2000 kN/m, depending on the backup roll), and the length of the nip can be varied, so that the dry solids content of the web that is achieved is higher and better controllable than with a roll nip.
  • WO 97/13030 A discloses a paper machine comprising the features of the preamble of claim 1.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide novel press section concepts in which it is largely possible to avoid the drawbacks discussed above and to provide a press section that, for its part, permits, if necessary, an increase of the running speed of a paper machine to the range of ⁇ 2000 m/min.
  • the rewetting arising from the other felt after the nip is reduced, because the web is no longer in contact with said felt. Also, the rewetting arising from the felt that the web follows is reduced, because the vacuum in the suction roll keeps the water better in the felt, and the web absorbs less water as it expands (in the z-direction). Since, in the press section in accordance with the invention, the web already chooses the correct felt in the nip, after the nip no separate transfer suction roll or equivalent is needed, by whose means the web could be forced to follow the correct felt. By means of such a transfer suction roll, abrasion might be caused in the web, because at a transfer suction roll the felts may have different speeds or tensions.
  • an extended-nip zone in the last nip in the press wherein a sufficiently long time of dwell is obtained in the last nip while, nevertheless, employing a sufficiently low peak compression pressure, in which case both a good and reliable transfer of the web, owing to the suction roll applied in the extended nip, and a sufficiently high dry solids content of the web are achieved, which dry solids content is realized partly because an extended nip in itself has a good dewatering capacity, which is increased further by the suction roll also used as a backup roll in the extended nip, at the same time as rewetting is avoided.
  • the press section in accordance with the invention is particularly well suitable for the manufacture of all printing and writing paper grades, whose basis weight is, as a rule, lower than 100 g/m 2 .
  • a preferred embodiment of the invention is particularly well suited in which two successive extended nips are used, both of which are two-felt nips, in which case a particularly symmetric dewatering and, thereby, symmetry in the z-direction, which is required from printing papers, are achieved.
  • a press suction roll when used in an extended nip as the backup roll of the hose roll, owing to the high nip loads it is preferable to use a sufficiently large suction roll diameter D ⁇ 800...2000 mm and a thickness of the mantle of the suction roll higher than normal, s ⁇ 50...120 mm.
  • a press suction roll in the present invention, it is also possible to use a variable-crown roll or an adjustable-crown roll, such as the applicant's roll with the trade mark SymZTMRoll.
  • the suction zone of the press suction roll is extended to the width of the extended-nip zone only or just slightly beyond said width, in which case the width of the suction sector on the press suction roll is, as a rule, in the range ⁇ 8°...16°, preferably in the range ⁇ 10°...14°.
  • Figure 1 is a schematic illustration of the preferred embodiment of the invention, in which two successive extended-nip zones arranged in accordance with the invention and a fully closed draw of the web from the forming wire to the drying wire are employed.
  • Figures 2A, 2B, 2C, 2D, 2E, 2F, 2G, and 2H illustrate different variations of arrangements of the first press nip in a press section in accordance with the invention.
  • Figures 3A, 3B, 3C, 3D, 3E, and 3F are illustrations corresponding to Figs. 2A...2H of arrangements of the second and the last nip in a press section in accordance with the invention and of the draw of the web to the dryer section.
  • Fig. 1 illustrates the exemplifying embodiment of the invention that is, according to current knowledge, the most advantageous one, in particular in paper machines that produce printing and writing papers.
  • the paper web W is separated from the forming wire 10 at the pick-up point P and transferred onto the suction zone 35a of the pick-up roll 35 onto the first upper felt 31, which is guided by its guide rolls 33.
  • the upper felt 31 carries the web W into the first extended nip NP1, which is provided with two felts and in which the lower felt is the lower felt 41 guided by the guide rolls 43, which carries the web W further after the extended-nip zone NP1.
  • the web W is carried on the top face of the lower felt 41 as a straight run over the blow suction box 44 onto the second upper felt 32, onto which it is transferred on the suction zone 36a of the transfer suction roll 36. After this the web W is carried on the lower face of the second upper felt 32 over the blow suction boxes 34 into the second extended nip NP2, after which the web W follows the second lower felt 42, which is guided by its guide rolls 43.
  • the web W is passed from the second extended nip NP2 to the transfer point S, at which the web W is transferred with the aid of the suction zone 50a of the transfer suction roll 50 onto the drying wire 51, which runs over blow suction boxes 52 onto the first drying cylinder 53 in the dryer section and from said cylinder further in a known way.
  • the function of the blow suction boxes 34 and 44 placed between the extended-nip zones NP1 and NP2 is to keep the web W in contact with the felt 41,32.
  • the extended nips NP1 and NP2 have been formed between an upper shoe roll or hose roll 11 and 12 and a lower press suction roll 21,22 provided with a suction zone 23.
  • the construction of the upper hose rolls 11,12 of the extended nips NP1 and NP2 is in itself known and comprises a flexible hose mantle 14, in whose interior there is a press shoe 13 which can be loaded by means of a hydraulic pressure medium and by whose means the necessary compression pressure can be applied to the web W running between the felts 31,41;32,42 so that water is transferred in both nips NP1,NP2 into both felts substantially symmetrically so that a web sufficiently symmetric in the z-direction is obtained, which web has two identical faces.
  • Such a paper is particularly suitable for writing or printing paper.
  • the vacuum present in the suction zones 23 of the press suction rolls 21,22 it is secured that, after the two nips NP1,NP2, the web W follows the lower felt 41,42, in which case the lower felt 41,42 can be separated from the upper felt 31,32 directly after the nip zone, whereby rewetting of the web is substantially prevented.
  • the extent of the suction zones 23 of the press suction rolls 21,22 is, as a rule, just about 8°...16°, preferably ⁇ 10°...14°, and extends to the width of the extended-nip zone or zones.
  • the press suction roll 21 and/or 22 is/are used in an extended-nip zone, said roll 21/22 must be measured more robust than a normal suction roll in order to endure the high linear loads in the extended nip.
  • the diameter of the press suction roll 21/22 is, as a rule, chosen in the range D ⁇ 800...2000 mm.
  • the thickness of the perforated mantle of the press suction roll 21/22 and the perforations in said mantle are also dimensioned in view of high nip loads.
  • the thickness s of the mantle of the suction roll 21/22 is, as a rule, chosen in the range s ⁇ 50...120 mm.
  • the proportion of the open area in the mantle of the suction roll 21/22 i.e. the percentage of holes R, is, as a rule, chosen in the range R ⁇ 10...40 %.
  • the strength of the mantle of the suction roll 21/22 can also be increased by means of choice of its material.
  • the level of vacuum P effective in the suction zone 23 of the press suction roll 21/22 is, as a rule, chosen in the range p ⁇ 30...70 kPa, depending on the application.
  • Figs. 2A...2H illustrate different variations of embodiments of the first press nip in accordance with the invention.
  • Figs. 3A...3F illustrate different variations of carrying out the second nip in accordance with the invention and the last nip in the press section.
  • the first press nips shown in Figs. 2A, 2B, 2C, and 2D are suitable for use in particular in connection with the last nip in any one of the press sections shown in Figs. 3A and 3B.
  • press sections can be carried into effect favourably as the combinations 2A + 3A, 2A + 3B, 2B + 3A, 2B + 3B, 2C + 3A, 2C + 3B, 2D + 3A, 2D + 3B.
