Abstract
Description
- The invention relates to a method for the manufacture or treatment of a material web, in particular of a paper or cardboard web, while using a respective machine, in particular a paper machine. A method of this kind is described, for example, in US-A-5 611 893 and DE 691 29 788 T2.
- The invention further relates to an apparatus for measuring the hardness and/or the compactness of at least one clothing, in particular of at least one felt, fabric, belt and/or the like, of a machine, in particular of a paper machine, for the manufacture or treatment of a material web, in particular of a paper or cardboard web.
- Previous technologies for studying machine clothing involved online studies of moisture and/or permeability of machine clothing on order to determine their condition and performance. These studies were unable to provide information regarding the compaction (or density) of the machine clothing in cross direction or in machine direction over time. Apart from this, such measurements were unable to provide any indication of nip profile in situations where the clothing had passed through a pressing operation.
- It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide an improved method and an improved apparatus of the kind initially mentioned with which the above-mentioned problems can be eliminated.
- In accordance with the invention, this object is satisfied by the provision of a method for the manufacture or treatment of a material web, in particular of a paper or cardboard web, while using a respective machine, in particular a paper machine, comprising the step of measuring the hardness and/or the compactness of at least one clothing, in particular of at least one felt, fabric, belt and/or the like, of said machine.
- In accordance with a preferred practical embodiment of the method of the invention, the hardness and/or the compactness of said machine clothing is continuously measured.

- In accordance with an expedient embodiment of the method of the invention, the measurement values obtained by that measurement of the hardness and/or the compactness of said machine clothing are used for controlling the condition of that machine clothing.
- Such a control of the condition of said machine clothing can, for example, be carried out by controlling at least one sectionalized nip profiling and/or crown profiling equipment in order to optimize cross direction clothing compaction, nip impression and/or cross-machine web quality.
- In accordance with another advantageous embodiment, the control of the condition of that machine clothing is carried out by controlling the average load pressure of a nip in order to optimize the pressing deficiency clothing compaction and extend the life of the machine clothing.
- In accordance with the invention, the above-mentioned object is further satisfied by the provision of an apparatus for measuring the hardness and/or the compactness of at least one clothing, in particular of at least one felt, fabric, belt and/or the like, of a machine, in particular of a paper machine, for the manufacture or treatment of a material web, in particular of a paper or cardboard web, in particular for carrying out the method in accordance with any one of the preceding claims, said apparatus comprising at least one rotating wheel which contacts said machine clothing at its region of rotation around a counter roll, and at least one hardness and/or compactness sensor associated with said rotating wheel or with said counter roll.
- The sensor is preferably embedded in said rotating wheel or counter roll, respectively. In the latter case, a plurality of sensors can be embedded in the counter roll in cross machine direction.
- In accordance with a preferred practical embodiment of the apparatus of the invention, the rotating wheel is displaceable in cross machine direction.
- The rotating wheel is preferably displaceable along a support rail.
- In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the apparatus of the invention, the sensor is laid out for providing a signal which is proportional to the hardness and/or compaction of said machine clothing.
- The sensor can, e.g., be a piezo crystal sensor.
- In some cases it might be expedient to use a contacting caliper sensor.
- The sensor is preferably positioned by means of a pressure controlled apparatus.
- With the method and apparatus of the invention it is possible, e.g., to establish a continuous hardness and/or compaction measurement and control of, for example, a felt, fabric or belt on a paper machine.
- The apparatus can provide continues machine direction and cross machine measurement of the hardness of paper machine clothing often referred to as felts, fabrics and belts. The apparatus may consist of a rotating wheel which contacts the paper machine clothing at its point of rotation around a turn roller or counter roll. The contacting roller may contain an embedded hardness sensor, or a plurality of sensors, which provide a signal which is proportional to the hardness or compaction of the paper machine clothing.
- The apparatus may be able to provide the following information to the user:
- trend information covering the life of the felt, fabric or belt in order to assess the condition of the machine clothing
- profil information (cross machine measurement) of the felt, fabric or belt to indicate the uniformity of the clothing's compaction
- profil information used to determine the condition of any nip the clothing has passed through
- individual measurement for each felt or fabric in the manufacturing process, particularly for a press section where the performance and condition of each nip, felt/fabric can be optimized for paper quality and felt/fabric life
- a historical database system providing archive data for use in comparative and absolute analysis of felts, fabrics, belts and rotating mechanical elements of the paper machine

- The present invention provides direct measurement of clothing compaction and is able to be used as a continuous online analysis and troubleshooting tool in paper machine form sections, pressing operations and drying sections.
- There may be a certain sensor size to wheel width ratio. A situation, where the wheel presses into the felt and as a consequence provides an inaccurate measurement, should be avoided.
- The measurement signal could, for example, be transmitted down a scanner power track and processed in an off-sheet electronics box, i.e. a so called NIC (network intelligent controller).
- It might be expedient to measure the average compactness over time from average data. This data could be plotted on an x-y-graph with a lower limit defined for the limit of felt compactness. Once the compactness of the felt reaches this limit then it will be described as reaching the end of its life.
- Felts should have a certain compactness value to be successful in any given press position. Consequently, felt data could be archived such that the machine operators could access this information remotely and use it to provide customer support and competitive felt analysis.
- As to the optimization of the felt life time and the press efficiency/quality, the CD (cross direction) felt compactness profile will most certainly reflect the press nip profile. The aim could be to have a flat compactness profile in order to deliver uniform dewatering across the web. The nip profiling system could be used to flatten the compactness profile. It could also be interesting to adjust the nip load and observe felt compactness and express moisture value. A control strategy could be realized which provides maximum dewatering with minimum press load while extending felt life. For controlling the sectionalised nip profiling and crown profiling means in order to optimize CD-clothing compaction and paper quality (e.g. moisture CD profile), closed loop control could be applied using the compactness profile with the nip controlled zones.

compactness detection sensor 18 is mounted in the rotatingwheel 14. Such a hardness and/or compactness sensor could also be embedded in thecounter roll 16. In the latter case, a plurality ofsensors 18 could be embedded in thecounter roll 16 in cross machine direction. - As indicated by arrow F, the
rotating wheel 14 is displaceable in a cross machine direction. With the present embodiment, therotating wheel 14 is displaceable along asupport rail 20. - Figure 2 shows a part illustration of the
