Abstract
Description
- In general present invention relates to calendering of fiber web in a calender of a fiber web machine. More especially the present invention relates to a method according to preamble part of claim 1 and to a multiroll calender according to preamble part of claim 7.
- Calendering is generally carried out in order to improve the properties, like smoothness and gloss, of a web-like material such as a paper or board web. In calendering the web is passed into a nip, i.e. calendering nip, formed between rolls that are pressed against each other, in which nip the web becomes deformed as by the action of temperature, moisture and nip pressure. In the calender the nips are formed between a smooth-surfaced press roll such as metal roll and a roll coated with resilient material such as a polymer roll. The resilient-surfaced roll adjusts itself to the forms of the web surface and presses the opposite side of the web evenly against the smooth-surfaced press roll. Multinip, or multiroll calendering is calendering in a calendering unit, in which the nips are formed between a smooth-surfaced press roll such as metal roll and a roll coated with resilient material such as a polymer roll and the linear load increases in multinip calenders from the upper nip to the lower nip due to gravitation, unless roll relies systems are used. From prior art multiroll calenders are known, in which the set of rolls of which is formed of two stacks of rolls, each stack of rolls comprising at least two calender rolls. Multinip or multiroll calender are known for example by brand names OptiLoad and TwinLine. In
FI patent 96334 - As fiber web machine running speeds and the need for calendering increases, a possibility to carry out various types of calendering for calendering different fiber web grades by means of a calender is also needed, which can be carried out for example by means of running with fewer nips than all nips, in which the web is passed through a calender such that during calendering the web being calendered is calendered only in some of the possible nips of the calender. In prior art this is usually possible only by changing rolls of a calender for grade change. In
WO publication 2006/051169 a method in a multiroll calender, a multiroll calender and a method for loading a calender roll of a multiroll calender is disclosed. In the method a fiber web is calendered in a multi roll calender comprising two stacks of rolls, both stacks comprising at least two calender rolls. In the multiroll calender at least one intermediate roll is locked to a lower position whereby loading the rolls above or below the locked roll, a required number of calendering nips can be provided for use. In this prior art publication also various ways of guiding the web to be calendered through the calendering nips of the calender roll stacks is disclosed but the running direction of the web is always same in each stack of the calender during calendering in each configuration. - The line between paper and board is flexible and paper and board are available in a wide variety of grades and can be divided according to basis weight in two categories: papers with a single ply and a basis weight of 25 - 300 g/ m2 and boards manufactured in multi-ply technology and having a basis weight of 150 - 600 g/m2. It should be noted that the borderline between paper and board is flexible since board grades with lightest basis weights are lighter than the heaviest paper grades. Generally speaking, paper is used for printing and board for packaging.

figures 1 and 2 the running direction of the web has been changed for grade change of fiber web. In thefigure 1 a two-sided fiber web grade, for example wood free coated (WFC), is calendered and in the figure a one-sided fiber web grade, for example release, is calendered. Infigure 1 the upper side of the web W is in contact with thermo rolls 22B, 24B in the first stack of calender rolls 20 and the lower side of the web is in contact with thermo rolls 32B, 34B in the second stack of calender rolls 30. Infigure 2 the running direction has been changed for grade change and in the first stack of calender rolls 20 and again the upper side of the web is in contact with thermo rolls 32B, 34B in the second stack of calender rolls 30. - In
figures 3 and4 amultiroll calender 10 with two stacks of calender rolls 20, 30 is shown. The twostacks Rolls - As shown in the example of
figures 3 and4 the running direction of the web has been changed for grade change of fiber web. In thefigure 3 a two-sided fiber web grade, for example wood free coated (WFC), is calendered and in thefigure 4 a one-sided fiber web grade, for example release, is calendered. Infigure 3 the web is calendered from top to bottom via calendering nips of both stacks of calendering rolls 20, 30 and the lower side of the web W is in contact with thermo rolls 22B, 24B in the first stack of calender rolls 20 and the upper side of the web is in contact with thermo rolls 32B, 34B in the second stack of calender rolls 30. Infigure 4 the running direction has been changed for grade change, the web is guided from thelower roll 25 of the first stack of calender rolls 20 directly to the bottom of the calender and the web is guided through the second stack of calender rolls 30 from bottom to top and in the first stack of calender rolls 20 and again the lower side of the web is in contact with thermo rolls 32B, 34B in the second stack of calender rolls 30. - In the above the invention has been described by way of example with reference to the figures of the accompanying drawing. However many modifications and variations are possible within the inventive idea.
