Definitions

  • the invention relates to a drying device for drying a material web, in particular a paper, board or tissue web, which has an upper side and a lower side.
  • the drying device comprises at least a first drying section and a second drying section, wherein the first drying section is substantially rectilinear and has a first impingement hood for direct loading of the upper side of the material web with hot drying medium.
  • the underside of the material web is assigned a first drying wire for guiding the material web through the first drying section.
  • the second drying section has a second impingement flow hood for direct loading of the lower side of the material web with hot drying medium, wherein the upper side of the material web is assigned a second drying fabric for guiding the material web through the second drying section and the second drying fabric is guided over at least one support surface.
  • Such drying devices are used in modern paper machines for high production speeds. These high-performance dryers work according to the impact flow principle. The paper web is charged with hot air and dried intensively. As the speed increases, the importance and the rate of drying of such high-performance dryers increases more and more. Until the first free draw of the paper web in the subsequent dryer section with drying cylinders, a certain minimum dry content is required for each type of paper so that the paper web has sufficient strength and does not tear. It follows for the design of the dryer section of a paper machine, that the length of the high-performance drying section increases more and more in comparison to the subsequent conventional drying with drying cylinders.
  • the drying capacity required for increasing the machine speed can be increased by extending the horizontal impingement flow path of the first high-performance dryer.
  • a disadvantage is the runability of the paper web, which deteriorates with high machine speed. This is especially true in the second drying section in which the paper web underside is dried in impingement dryer.
  • the respective drying wire is supported by rollers in the first and in the second drying section. As a result, narrowing and widening gaps between the drying wire and the rollers are produced on each roller. These lead to pressure pulses, which detach the web, especially at the edges of the dryer fabric. This can lead to web breaks and wrinkles, especially at high speeds.
  • a drying device for drying a material web, in particular a paper, board or tissue web, which has an upper side and a lower side.
  • the drying device comprises at least a first drying section and a second drying section, wherein the first drying section is substantially rectilinear and has a first impingement hood for direct loading of the upper side of the material web with hot drying medium.
  • the underside of the material web is assigned a first drying wire for guiding the material web through the first drying section.
  • the second drying section has a second impingement flow hood for direct loading of the lower side of the material web with hot drying medium, wherein the upper side of the material web is assigned a second drying fabric for guiding the material web through the second drying section and the second drying fabric is guided over at least one support surface.
  • the solution according to the invention is characterized in that the at least one support surface is designed to be air-permeable and low-pulsation.
  • the inventive solution ensures that the bottom of the paper web safely and reliably rests on the dryer fabric, even at high speeds.
  • This is particularly advantageous in the case of drying by means of impingement-flow dryers, in which the material web is not guided between two dryer fabrics, so that the hot drying medium can impinge directly on the underside of the material web and thus dry it efficiently.
  • Due to the low-pulsation design of the support surface of the dryer fabric no pressure pulses which lead to the detachment of the web from the dryer fabric.
  • An air-permeable support surface makes it possible to suction the support surface and thus to hold the material web even more firmly on the dryer fabric. This is especially true when drying the Bottom of the web important to keep the web against gravity on the drying wire.
  • Hot air and / or steam can be used as the drying medium.
  • the invention has a particularly advantageous effect at speeds of greater than 1700 m / min, in particular greater than 1800 m / min.
  • the drying capacity can be flexibly adapted to the production requirements by the adaptation of the length of this first drying section during its design.
  • a straight and / or a slightly curved course of the drying section to understand.
  • a slightly curved course has the advantage of better stabilization of the web on the dryer fabric.
  • the curvature has a radius of greater than 10 m, preferably greater than 15 m.
  • the at least one support surface is evacuated.
  • a small negative pressure is sufficient. It can be in the range between 1 hPa to 200 hPa, in particular between 1 hPa and 100 hPa.
  • the first drying section may be formed with a support surface corresponding to the support surface of the second drying section.
  • the support surface perforations or holes or openings.
  • the support surface is designed as a stationary, flat and / or curved plate in the web running direction. This design is inexpensive to manufacture.
  • the support surface of the second drying section is formed by the jacket of a support roller.
  • this solution has the advantage that no relative movement between the dryer and the support surface occurs and thus no wear due to friction.
  • the backup roll has a perforated, for example drilled coat. For a sufficient drying capacity, a diameter in the range between 3 m and 6 m is sufficient.
  • the suction box can be divided in the web running direction into several sections with different pressures.
  • the second drying section immediately follows the first drying section.
  • the material web is transferred from the first drying wire to the second drying wire with the assistance of a suction zone arranged in the second drying wire.
  • first impingement flow hood and / or the second impingement flow hood are / are formed in the web running direction and / or in the transverse direction by a plurality of part hoods.
  • the drying performance of the first impingement flow hood and / or the second impingement flow hood can be set or regulated in the web running direction and / or in the transverse direction.
  • the first drying wire is also guided over at least one air-permeable and low-pulsation supporting surface, corresponding to the support surface for the second drying wire.
  • the invention relates to a paper machine for producing a material web, in particular a paper, board or tissue web, comprising a press section and a drying section, wherein the drying section comprises at least one drying device according to the invention.
  • the drying device according to the invention is preceded by a press section consisting of at least one extended press nip.
  • press sections are also referred to as Single NipcoFlex presses.
  • press sections come into question, which consist of two consecutively arranged extended press nips.
  • Such press sections are referred to as Tandem NipcoFlex presses.

  • the bands may consist of two felts or even of a felt and a smooth, air-permeable or impermeable band.
  • the drying device is preceded by a press section with at least one extended press nip and a downstream smoothing device.
  • the smoothing device is formed by a roller and / or belt with a smooth surface and an evacuated counter-roller.
  • the material web is transferred from a lower clothing of the last press nip with a smooth surface to a transfer belt and from there to a counter-roller wraps around, air-permeable fabric and passed through the smoothing nip of the smoothing device.
  • the drying device is preceded by a press section with a compact press and a downstream smoothing device.
  • the smoothing device is formed by a roller and / or belt with a smooth surface and an evacuated counter-roller.
  • the material web is transferred from a center belt with a smooth surface, which wraps around the central roller, onto a transfer belt and from there onto an air-permeable clothing wound around the counter-roller of the smoothing device and guided through the smoothing nip of the smoothing device.
  • the material web is guided in a closed train through the press section and through the drying device.
  • the solution according to the invention in addition to a stable web run during the production operation, also permits a web-width transfer of the paper web 100 after a demolition or when the paper machine is restarted. This is reliably possible only with pulsation running support surfaces.
