Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for manufacturing printing paper or paperboard with a grammage of 30-200 g/m 2 in a paper or paperboard machines comprising a wet section, a press section and a drying section.
  • the invention also relates to a paper or paperboard machine for manufacturing printing paper or paperboard at high speed, which printing paper or paperboard has a grammage of 30-200 g/m 2 , the machine comprising a wet section, a press section and a drying section, which press section includes a roll press having a double-felted roll-press nip, and a shoe press, having an extended single-felled or double-felted shoe-press nip.
  • US 4,561,939 A describes a paper machine with a press section, consisting of a double-felted roll press and a double-felted shoe press.
  • the roll press is of a conventional type having grooved rolls with rigid envelope surfaces. Such a configuration precludes high web speeds.
  • a suction shoe is arranged in the loop of the lower press felt, which suction shoe is intended to act so that the web accompanies the lower press felt. At high speeds, however, such a suction shoe cannot ensure such behaviour of the web.
  • the suction shoe is an important element in the press section, according to this patent specification, which therefore does not disclose or suggest other suction devices to ensure the correct web behaviour at high speeds.
  • Said specification employs a suction shoe after the second double-felted press nip as well, which therefore contributes to a further limitation of this known paper machine in respect of web speed.
  • Said patent specification is limited to a double-felted shoe press for the second press nip and, thus, it does not disclose a transfer belt to replace one of the press felts to enable a secure web run and, thereby, higher speeds. Neither does it recognize the possibility of operating with a transfer belt at very high speeds and obtaining good dry-solids content also for mechanical pulp, which is used for manufacturing newsprint, LWC base paper and SC paper.
  • the known paper machine further lacks blowing boxes that generate partial vacuums to secure the firm attachment of the web to the press felt so as to enable high speeds, which result in strong air flows, which can easily detach the web from the press felt.
  • Document US 5 639 351 A discloses a method for manufacturing printing paper with a grammage of 40 to 80 g/m 2 in a paper machine comprising a wet section, a press section and a drying section.
  • a web formed in the wet section is pressed in a roll press with a double-felted roll-press nip, the roll press comprising a suction roll and a deflection-compensating press roll forming the roll-press nip therebetween, the deflection-compensating press roll comprising a rotatably journalled envelope surface, a stationary beam and a shoe member disposed between the beam and the envelope surface, wherein the suction roll and the deflection-compensating roll are arranged so that the shoe member does not act against the suction roll.
  • the web after having been pressed in the roll press, is transferred to a shoe press with an extended single-felted shoe-press nip and is pressed in said shoe press.
  • the machine is operated at a web speed of at least 1,200 m/min.
  • the web In the roll-press nip, the web is subjected to a linear load ranging from 10 to 120 kN/m, preferably from 30 to 80 kN/m, and a specific pressure ranging from 0.2 to 2 MPa
  • the shoe-press nip the web is subjected to a linear load ranging from 10 to about 30 times the linear load in the roll-press nip and a specific pressure ranging from 5 to about 50 times the specific pressure in the roll-press nip, to obtain a dewatered web with a dry-solids content of about 25 to 33 per cent after the roll-press nip and about 48 to 54 per cent after the shoe-press nip.
  • Document US 5 639 351 A also discloses a paper machine for manufacturing printing paper at high speed, which printing paper has a grammage of 40 to 80 g/m 2 , the machine comprising a wet section, a press section and a drying section.
  • the press section includes a roll press having a double-felted roll-press nip, and a shoe press having an extended single-felted shoe-press nip.
  • the roll press comprises a suction roll and a deflection-compensating press roll forming the roll-press nip therebetween, the deflection-compensating press roll comprising a rotatably journalled envelope surface, a stationary beam and a shoe member disposed between the beam and the envelope surface, wherein the suction roll and the deflection-compensating press roll are arranged so that the shoe member does not act against the suction roll.
  • the machine is arranged to be operated at a web speed of at least 1,200 m/min, with a linear load in the roll-press nip ranging from 10 to 120 kN/m, preferably from 30 to 80 kN/m, and in the shoe-press nip ranging from 10 to about 30 times the linear load in the roll-press nip, and with a specific pressure in the roll-press nip ranging from 0.2 to 2 MPa and in the shoe-press nip ranging from 5 to 50 times the specific pressure in the roll-press nip, to obtain a dewatered web with a dry-solids content of about 25 to 33 per cent after the roll-press nip and at about 48 to 54 per cent after the shoe-press nip.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide an improved method and an improved paper or paperboard machine that enables the manufacture of printing paper or paperboard at very high speeds and that further enables high efficiency and a great increase in productivity.

  • a steam box 40 is arranged in a free space, where the underside of the web W is exposed, situated between the lower felt 15 of the roll press 9 and the lower clothing 22 or 26, respectively, of the shoe press 10, in close proximity either to the upper felt 13 of the roll press 9 in accordance with Figure 3, for instance, or to the upper clothing 26 or 22, respectively, of the shoe press in accordance with Figure 1.
  • Designation number 41 denotes suitable equipment for conditioning the press felts 13, 15, 22, 26a.
  • the press section has a closed web run from the wet section to the drying section and provides good runability for all grades of printing paper as well as enabling very high operating speeds.

  • the suction roll and the blowing boxes after the roll nip result in good runability.
  • the second press nip is a shoe-press nip where a very high nip load can be used and a very high dry-solids content can be achieved.
  • suction rolls are present to ensure that the web is transferred from one clothing to another, as well as blowing boxes generating partial vacuum or suction boxes to ensure that the web is retained adhered to the clothing. These measures, furthermore, contribute to good runability and enabling operation at very high speeds without web ruptures occurring.
  • the partial vacuum in the suction roll 6 is in the range of about 10-30 kPa, in the suction roll 24 about 15-40 kPa and in the suction roll 28 about 10-30 kPa, if this is used.
  • the partial vacuum in the suction roll 34 is in the range of about 15-40 kPa.
  • the blowing boxes 17, 25, 29 generating partial vacuum provide a partial vacuum of about 300-1,000 Pa.
  • a web transfer of the type shown in Figures 3 and 4 for transferring the web from the roll press to the shoe press is particularly suitable for manufacturing paperboard, as there are open, wedge-shaped gaps after the roll-press nip and before the shoe-press nip.
  • Figure 1a shows parts of a press section similar to the one in the machine in accordance with Figure 1, but with a modified configuration of the shoe press 10 in respect of the run of the lower press clothing 26, i.e. the transfer belt 26b, relative to the upper felt 22 before the extended shoe-press nip.
  • the guide roll 27a located nearest to the shoe-press nip is elevated and arranged close to the upper felt 22 so that, in the direction away from the elevated guide roll 27a, the transfer belt 26b runs in contact with the upper felt 22, enclosing the web W between them to form a sandwich construction.
  • An additional guide roll 23a is arranged in the loop of the upper felt 22 at the position of said elevated guide roll 27a to create a nip not compressing the web.
  • the shoe press in the machine in accordance with Figure 2 can be modified in the same way as shown in Figure 1a.
  • the use of such a sandwich construction, which follows after the steam box 40, means that the distance between the web W and the steam box 40 becomes very precise.
  • the number of blowing boxes generating partial vacuum or suction boxes 25 can, in the embodiment shown in Figure 1a, be reduced to a single one.
  • Figure 3a shows part of a machine similar to the one in accordance with Figure 3, but with a modified configuration of the roll press 9 and the shoe press 10 in respect of the run of the lower press clothings 15, 22 and the upper press clothings 13, 26 relative to each other after and before the press nip.
  • a suction roll 47 is arranged downstream of the roll-press nip to guide the upper felt 13 into contact with the lower felt 15 so that the upper and lower felts 13, 15 and the web W enclosed therebetween form a sandwich construction after the roll-press nip.
  • a web run of the type shown in Figure 3a for conveying the web from the roll-press nip to the shoe-press nip is particularly suitable for manufacturing printing paper at high speeds, as the open, wedge-shaped gaps after the roll-press nip and before the shoe-press nip have been eliminated.
  • the press rolls of the roll press are of the deflection-compensating type, as illustrated in detail in Figure 5.
  • Each press roll has a rotatable envelope surface 42 and an inner, static I-shaped beam 43, extending axially between the end walls and supporting an elongate shoe member 44 that comprises a plurality of hydrostatic and hydrodynamic slide shoes, arranged in a row and hydraulically loaded between the I beam 43 and the envelope surface 42 by way of power cylinders 45, a thin film of oil being maintained between each slide shoe and the inside of the envelope. Thanks to such a construction, the vibrations in the press rolls are damped in a very effective manner.
  • the two shoe members 44 act against the insides of the envelope surfaces within the roll-press nip and can be controlled section by section in relation to each other to compensate for deflections in the envelope surfaces of the press rolls.
  • the press rolls are blind-drilled or grooved.
  • the envelope surface of each press roll has an outer layer of steel, exhibiting grooves with a width of about 0.5 mm, for instance, and a depth of about 5 mm, for instance, the cc distance between two adjacent parallel grooves being about 2.25 mm, for instance.
  • the grooved press roll has a very large aggregate groove volume, namely 1.1 dm 3 /m 2 of envelope surface with the specified groove values.
  • the aggregate groove or void volume is in the range of 0.7-1.8 dm 3 /m 2 of envelope surface.
  • the described deflection-compensating press rolls effectively eliminate the vibrations created at high linear loads, high specific top pressures and high web speeds.
  • the linear load in the roll-press nip is in the range of 100-300 kN/m, preferably 120-250 kN/m, and in the shoe-press nip 500-1,500 kN/m, preferably 700-1,200 kN/m.
  • the specific pressure in the roll-press nip is in the range of 5-15 MPa, preferably 8-11 MPa, and in the shoe-press nip 4-13 MPa, preferably 4-8 MPa.
  • the dry-solids content of the web after the wet section is generally in the range of 15-22 per cent, depending on the type of printing paper, the dry-solids content for fine paper normally being 18-22 per cent, for newsprint and LWC base paper, 16-18 per cent, and for SC paper, 15-17 per cent.
  • the web speed is currently generally in the range of 1,200-1,700 m/min. depending on the type of printing paper, amongst other factors, the speed for fine paper in modern paper machines and press sections typically being about 1,200-1,500 m/min., for newsprint about 1,300-1,700 m/min., for LWC base paper about 1,400-1,600 m/min. and for SC paper about 1,400-1,600 m/min.
  • the shoe press 10 is preferably provided with a transfer belt, which is more favourable in the bottom position, i.e. in accordance with Figure 1.
  • the shoe press When the shoe press employs a transfer belt and a press felt, the water will be pressed out of the web in only one direction, i.e. towards the press felt, which means that the web becomes asymmetrical, having dissimilar sides (smooth and uneven, respectively). Consequently, it holds good that the more water that can be removed from the web in the double-felted roll-press nip, the less water needs to be removed in the shoe-press nip, which results in an improved symmetry of density in the z direction.
  • Fine paper Chemical pulp, filler content about 12-18 per cent, filler usually calcium carbonate, grammage 40-200 g/m 2 .
  • SC paper Mechanical pulp 70-80 per cent and chemical pulp 30-20 per cent, kaolin filler about 30 per cent, grammage about 42-56 g/m 2 .
  • LWC base paper Mechanical pulp 55-60 per cent, chemical pulp 45-40 per cent, filler about 5-15 per cent, grammage 33-45 g/m 2 .
  • Dry-solids content after 1st press 42 per cent Dry-solids content after 2nd press 57 per cent
  • a press section with a first press in the shape of a double-felted roll press and a second press in the shape of a shoe press constitute a cheaper configuration than a press section with two shoe presses.
  • the first roll press provides very good levels of dry-solids content with linear loads in the roll-press nip of 120-250 kN/m, which in some cases is much better than is provided by a shoe press with a linear load of 1,000 kN/m.
  • the reason for this is that the roll press at high linear loads creates much higher specific top pressures than a shoe press with an extended nip with a high load. This results in good water removal and dry-solids content, especially in the double-felted roll-press nip.
  • the described deflection-compensating, open press rolls in top and bottom positions very effectively prevent vibrations that constitute a problem with ordinary, solid press rolls when the linear load and the web speed are high.
  • the two deflection-compensating, open press rolls described have their shoe members acting against each other and the stresses on the envelope surfaces of the press rolls will therefore be low at high linear loads in the roll-press nip.
  • the deflection-compensating, open press rolls do not require cambering and therefore the CD profile in the roll-press nip can be controlled so that it becomes very straight. Furthermore, the moisture profile of the press felts will be good and the service life of the felts will increase.
