Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for calendering a material web and a calender arrangement for implementing the method.
- the object of the invention is a method for calendering a material web, especially a paper or board web, in a long-nip calender, in which the backing roll of the long-nip roll is a heated, metal-surfaced roll, in which case the length of the nip in the direction of travel of the material web is within the range from approximately 10 mm to 500 mm.
- the invention also relates to a calender arrangement for calendering a material web, especially a paper or board web, the said arrangement comprising a long-nip calender, in which the backing roll of the long-nip roll is a heated, metal-surfaced roll, the rolls of which form a long nip between them, the length of which in the direction of travel of the web is within the range from approximately 10 mm to 500 mm.
- the effective length of the nip increases due to the initial contact and because it is possible to use much softer polymers as belt material than in roll coatings without problems arising from deformation due to heat.
- the pressure impulse directed at the paper can be increased without the pressure peak becoming too great and the bulkiness beginning to diminish.
- a belt calendering solution has been previously described, for example, in Finnish patent publication no. 95061 and in WO- 98 00270, in which the calendering nip is formed between a heated, hard-surfaced roll and a metal belt supported by means of a calender roll having a resilient coating.
- One disadvantage of this solution is that the maximum nip pressure is insufficient for several paper grades requiring a high degree of calendering.
- One aim of the present invention is to achieve a solution by means of which calendering can be carried out between two hard surfaces without the disadvantages relating to conventional machine calendering, such as relatively great variations in gloss and a decrease in bulk. These disadvantages are caused by the relatively high nip pressure used in machine calendering, which is typically of the order of approximately 100 MPa.
- the method relating to the invention is characterised in that as a long-nip roll is used a roll, the mantle of which is made of metal, at least as concerns its calendering, longitudinal, central area; that in the method, a nip pressure within the range from about 0.1 MPa to about 50 MPa is directed at the material web W, and that the surface temperature of the rolls before the nip N is adjusted to a value from about 60°C to about 350°C.
- the nip pressure is preferably within the range from about 0.2 MPa to about 15 MPa, and the surface temperature is preferably within the range from about 120°C to about 300°C.
- the calender arrangement relating to the invention is in turn characterised in that the mantle of the long-nip roll is made of metal, at least as concerns its calendering, longitudinal, central area.
- the calender arrangement relating to the invention comprises a shoe roll 15, in which on a stationary axle 16, at the nip N, is arranged a loading member 17, which comprises a shoe part 19 extending over the width of the nip (in the longitudinal direction of the roll), and the pistons 20 loading it.
- a belt mantle 30 which is made of metal, at least in its calendering central area, as shown in Figure 2.
- the central area of the belt mantle 30 is comprised of a steel belt 31, which extends over the length of the shoe 19, and to it are connected end sections 32 made of resilient material, which may be, for example, polymer, rubber, silicone, etc.
- the end sections 32 are connected to the steel belt 31 in a flexible manner, for example, by glueing or curing. The connection is made at a point outside the shoe part 19 to avoid directing a fatiguing load on the steel belt.
- the steel belt 30 can also be made completely of metal, for example, by providing the end sections of the belt mantle with elastic sealing rings, which are fitted to rotate with the said mantle, as described in Finnish patent no. 66932.
- Figure 3 shows a solution in which a thin-walled metal cylinder 41 is fitted over the polymer belt 40 of a shoe roll 15, the cylinder being tightened in place by means of the internal air pressure of the roll.
- the length of the cylinder 41 is the same as the width of the material web and it is not fixed to the end structures of the shoe roll, whereby loading causing fatigue in metal materials is avoided in the edge area of the shoe.
- a long nip N Between the long-nip roll 15 and its heated, metal-surfaced backing roll 11 is formed a long nip N, through which the material web W is guided, in order to calender it.
- a nip pressure which is within the range from about 0.1 to about 50 MPa, preferably within the range from about 0.2 to about 15 MPa, which is considerably less than the pressure used in normal machine calendering, which is of the order of 100 MPa.
- the surface temperature of the rolls before the nip N is adjusted to a value from about 60°C to about 350°C, and preferably to a value from about 120°C to about 300°C, when the surface temperature used in conventional machine calendering is typically within the range from about 60°C to about 120°C.
- the length of the nip N in the direction of travel of the material web is preferably within the range from about 10 mm to about 500 mm.
- the surface roughness R a of both the steel belt 30 of the long-nip roll 15 and of the outer surface of the backing roll 11 is preferably less than 0.3 ⁇ m, whereby the material web W can be subjected to gloss treatment.
- the solution relating to the invention is applicable to both on-line use and off-line use. It is conceivable to use the calender arrangement relating to the invention, for example, on the press section for drying the material web, for pre-calendering before the coating machine and for final calendering after the coating machine.
- the paper machine When using the apparatus relating to the invention in the dryer section of a paper machine, the paper machine can be shortened by leaving a part of the drying cylinder out.
