Definitions
- present invention relates to a calender of a fiber web machine. More especially the present invention relates to a calender according to preamble part of claim 1.
- Calendering is generally carried out in order to improve the properties; surface properties, like smoothness and gloss, and caliber of a fiber web such as a paper or board web. Calendering has different functions depending on the location of the calender in the fiber web production line and on the fiber web grade to be produced. For example when producing coated fiber web grades a precalender is used before coating and after coating the fiber web is calendered in final calender.
- Calender can be an incorporated part of the fiber web production line or the coating machine i.e. an online-calender. In case a calender forms an independent unit, it is called offline-calender. Into online-calenders the fiber web is guided from the drying section of the fiber web machine or of the coater. Into offline-calenders the fiber web is guided from a reel-up.
- 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.
- calenders are used in calendering of fiber webs: in hard nip calenders (machine calenders) there are typically 1-2 nips and the web is calendered in a nip between two hard rolls, in soft calenders there are typically 1 - 4 nips and at least one of the nip rolls of the nip is a soft surface polymer roll. In hard nip calenders and in soft calenders on of nip rolls is a heatable thermo roll. Multiroll calenders have usually 5 - 11 nips i.e. 6 - 12 calender rolls, of which 2 - 5 are thermo rolls and 4 - 7 soft surfaced, polymer coated rolls.
- hard nip calenders the fiber web is calendered between two or more hard rolls.
- Two-roll hard nip calenders are primarily used for calendering webs that do not need heavy calendering: for precalendering before coating and for finishing of uncoated wood-free paper grades.
- Other types of hard nip calenders are multiroll hard nip calenders.
- the two-roll hard nip calender comprise a heated cast-iron roll and a deflection compensated roll supported by bearing housings of the rolls on frame, at one side on open frames and at both sides on closed frames.
- Heated rolls are either double-walled rolls or peripherally drilled rolls, in which hot water is circulated for heating the roll surface to temperatures 80 - 120 °C.
- Deflection compensated rolls are swimming rolls, CD-rolls, hydrostatically supported deflection rolls, hydraulically deflection compensated swimming rolls or zone controlled deflection compensated rolls.
- Nip rolls are loaded against each other with pneumatic bellows, pneumatic or hydraulic cylinders or with hydrostatic roll itself.
- One or two drives are used depending on the speed of the calender.
- WO2007/077296A1 a device for manufacturing a matte-surface fibrous web, in which the matte process can be implemented with a hard nip, which is arranged in a machine calender or metal belt calender or the roll stack of a multiroll calender, for example.
- a calender which according to one advantageous example is a machine calender comprising four hard-surfaced rolls that are in a nip contact with each other so as to form three nips and the rolls are generally thermo rolls and hard-surfaced deflection-compensated rolls.

- General values for CSWO newsprint can be regarded as follows: basis weight 40-48.8 g/m2, PPS s10 roughness (SCAN-P 76-95) 4.0-4.5 µm, Bendtsen roughness (SCAN-P21:67) 150 ml/min, density 600-750 kg/m3, brightness (ISO 2470:1999) 58-59 %, and opacity (ISO 2470:1998) 92-95%.
- Uncoated magazine paper (SC-supercalendered) grades usually contain 50 % - 75 % mechanical pulp, 5 % - 25 % chemical pulp, and 10 % - 35 % filler. The paper may also contain DIP. Typical values for calendered SC paper (containing e.g. SC-C, SC-B, and SC-A/A+) include basis weight 40-60 g/m2, ash content (SCAN-P 5:63) 0-35%, Hunter gloss (ISO/DIS 8254/1) <20-50%, PPS s10 roughness (SCAN-P 76:95) 1.0-2.5 µm, density 700-1250 kg/m3, brightness (ISO 2470:1999) 62-75%, and opacity (ISO 2470:1998) 90-95%.
- Coated mechanical papers include for example MFC (machine finished coated), LWC (light weight coated), MWC (medium weight coated), and HWC (heavy weight coated) grades. Coated mechanical papers usually contain 45 % -75 % mechanical or recycled fiber and 25 % - 55 % chemical pulp. Semi-chemical pulps are typical in LWC paper grades made in the Far East. The filler content is about 5 % -10 %. The grammage is typically in the range 40-80 g/m2.
- General values for LWC paper can be regarded as follows: basis weight 40-70 g/m2, Hunter gloss 50-65%, PPS S10 roughness 1.0-1.5 µm (offset) and 0.6-1.0 µm (roto), density 1100-1250 kg/m3, brightness 70-75%, and opacity 89-94%.
- General values for MFC paper (machine finished coated) can be regarded as follows: basis weight 48-70 g/m2, Hunter gloss 25-40%, PPS S10 roughness 2.2-2.8 µm, density 900-950 kg/ m3, brightness 70-75%, and opacity 91-95%.
- General values for MWC paper (medium weight coated) can be regarded as follows: basis weight 70-90 g/ m2, Hunter gloss 65-70%, PPS S10 roughness 0.6-1.0 µm, density 1150-1250 kg/ m3, brightness 70-75%, and opacity 89-94%.
- Woodfree paper is divided into two segments: uncoated and coated. Conventionally, the furnish of woodfree papers consists of bleached chemical pulp, with less than 10 % mechanical pulp.
- Typical values are for uncoated WFU Copy paper: grammage 70-80 g/m2, Bendtsen roughness 150-250 ml/min and bulk > 1.3 cm3/g; for uncoated offset paper: grammage 60-240 g/m2, Bendtsen roughness 100-200 ml/min and bulk 1.2- 1.3 cm3/g; and for color copy paper: grammage 100 g/m2, Bendtsen roughness < 50 ml/min and bulk 1.1 cm3/g.
- In coated pulp-based printing papers (WFC), the amounts of coating vary widely in accordance with requirements and intended application. The following are typical values for once- and twice-coated, pulp-based printing paper: once-coated basis weight 90 g/ m2, Hunter gloss 65-80%, PPS s10 roughness 0.75-1.1 µm, brightness 80-88%, and opacity 91-94%, and twice-coated basis weight 130 g/ m2, Hunter gloss 70-80%, PPS S10 roughness 0.65-0.95 µm, brightness 83-90%, and opacity 95-97%.
- Containerboard includes both linerboard and corrugating medium. Liners are divided according to their furnish base into kraftliner, recycled liner and white top liner. Liners are typically 1- to 3-ply boards with grammages varying in the range 100-300 g/m2.
- Linerboards are generally uncoated, but the production of coated white-top liner is increasing to meet higher demands for printability.
- The main cartonboard grades are folding boxboard (FBB), white-lined chipboard (WLC), solid bleached board (SBS) and liquid packaging board (LPB). In general, these grades are typically used for different kinds of packaging of consumer goods. Carton board grades vary from one- up to five-ply boards (150-400 g/m2). The top side is usually coated with from one to three layers (20-40 g/m2), the back side has less coating or no coating at all. There is a wide range of different quality data for the same board grade. FBB has the highest bulk thanks to the mechanical or chemimechanical pulp used in the middle layer of the base board. The middle layer of WLC consists mainly of recycled fiber, whereas SBS is made from chemical pulp, exclusively.
- FBB's bulk typically is between 1.1-1.9 cm3/g whereas WLC is on range 1.1-1.6 cm3/g and SBS 0.95-1.3 cm3/g. The PPS-s10-smoothess is respectively for FBB between 0.8 - 2.1 µm, for WLC 1.3- 4.5 µm and for SBS 0.7 - 2.1 µm.
- Release paper is used in label base paper in various end-use applications, such as food packaging and office labels. The most common release paper in Europe is supercalendered glassine paper coated with silicone to provide good release properties.
- Typical values for supercalendered release papers are basis weight 60 - 95 g/m2, caliper 55-79 µm, IGT 12-15 cm, Cobb Unger for dense side 0.9-1.6 g/m2 and for open side 1.2-2.5 g/m2.
- Coated label paper is used as face paper for release, but also for coated backing paper and flexible packings. Coated label paper has a grammage of 60-120 g/m2 and is typically sized or precoated with a sizer and single-blade coated on one side. Some typical paper properties for coated and calendered label paper are basis weight 50-100 g/m2, Hunter gloss 70-85%, PPS s10 roughness 0.6-1.0 µm, Bekk smoothness 1500-2000 s and caliper 45-90 µm.
