  • Patent number: 6599395
    Abstract: A method of producing paper webs coated on both sides includes the following steps: a) indirectly applying a liquid onto the paper web by passing the web through at least one nip formed by a roll and a counterelement, whereafter the web is dried; b) next, directly applying coating mixture at surplus only on one side of the web, whereafter the surplus coating mixture is removed again by use of a doctor element, the web being dried again thereafter; and c) lastly, directly applying coating mixture at surplus only on the other web side, whereafter the surplus coating mixture is removed by use of a doctor, whereafter the web is dried again. In the indirect application of liquid in the nip, or in the nips, either coating mixture to produce so-called MWC papers or a sizing suspension to produce so-called LWC papers is selectively applied.

  • Patent number: 6235158
    Abstract: A wet section (10) of a paper or cardboard machine and a process for the manufacture of a fibrous material web are suggested. The wet section (10) exhibits a double-screen segment (US), in which two screens (16, 18) are guided about parallel to one another and into which a fibrous material suspension (27) is introduced. The double-screen segment (US) is looped around a roll (22). The means (30, 32, 38) for the immobilization of the fibrous material suspension in the double-screen segment (US) are provided on the roll (22), for the formation of the fibrous material web. Moreover, the wet section exhibits means (32, 34, 36; 34, 36, 66) for further draining of the fibrous material web.
