Abstract: A heating device (1) for a corrugated cardboard installation includes several heating plates (3), arranged successively in the direction of advance of a corrugated cardboard web (2). Heating device (1) also includes at least one pressure unit (5), consisting of a bearing (6) arranged diagonally or transverse with respect to the direction of advance of the corrugated cardboard web (2). At least one pressure element (7) is attached to the bearing (6). The pressure element (7) is connected with the bearing (6) in a freely movable manner via at least one elastic medium (11). The elastic medium transfers the weight of the bearing (6) to the pressure element (7).

Abstract: A heating device (1) for a corrugated cardboard facility includes several heating plates (3) arranged sequentially along a path in the advancing direction of a sheet of corrugated cardboard (2). Compression elements (4) are arranged above the heating plates (3) in position to act on the sheet of corrugated cardboard (2) as it advances along the path. An intake belt (e) is located in a starting area (a) of the heating plates (3) between at least a part of the sheet of corrugated cardboard (2) and at least one compression element (4.1, 4.2).
