  • Publication number: 20090226706
    Abstract: The invention concerns a doctor blade of a fiber web machine, where the doctor blade is of a composite structure comprising a fiber material as reinforcement, and a binder. The reinforcement in the composite structure is essentially composed of a fiber material which is free from carbon fiber and the composite structure comprises particulate carbon in order to improve the thermal conductivity of the doctor blade.

  • Patent number: 5976064
    Abstract: A roll for use in the production of paper having a frame and a roll coating produced by thermal spraying. The coating is sealed by crystals formed out of a sealing-agent solution after the elimination of water therefrom. A coating for a roll for use in the production of paper produced by thermal spraying and having pores. In order to seal the coating, a sealing agent is crystallized in the pores in the coating.

  • Patent number: 5830537
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a roll for use in the production of paper in which the roll is coated by thermal spraying. A sealing-agent solution is spread onto a coating of the roll which is produced by thermal spraying to seal pores in the coating, the sealing-agent solution is then allowed to be absorbed into the pores in the coating. The roll is heated in order to eliminate the water from the sealing-agent solution, and upon elimination of the water, the sealing-agent solution crystallizes in the pores in the coating after which the roll is allowed to cool. A roll for use in the production of paper having a frame and a roll coating produced by thermal spraying. The coating is sealed by crystals formed out of a sealing-agent solution after the elimination of water therefrom. A coating for a roll for use in the production of paper produced by thermal spraying and having pores. In order to seal the coating, a sealing agent is crystallized in the pores in the coating.

  • Patent number: 5235747
    Abstract: The invention concerns a roll for use in the production of paper, in particular a center roll in a press section of a paper making machine, with which the web is in direct contact and from which the web is detached. In the invention, a composite structure has been formed onto the cylinder mantle of the roll. According to the invention, the roll face is provided with a surface layer which protects the roll from wear and which provides good properties for detaching of the web, this surface layer being formed by thermal spraying of a powder wherein metal and ceramic phases are in the same powder particle. The roll face is additionally provided with a dense layer for protection against corrosion, which layer is made of stainless steel whose chromium content is 10 to 29% and which layer is placed between the surface layer and the roll mantle. The function of the layer for protection from corrosion is to protect the roll mantle from corrosion and to promote the adhesion of the surface coating to the roll.

  • Patent number: 5167068
    Abstract: The present invention concerns a roll used in the manufacture of paper, for example a central roll in a press or a calender roll, with which the web is in direct contact and from which the web is detached. A coating has been formed onto a cylinder mantle of the roll, the coating being partly made of metal and also including a ceramic material. An outer face of the coating is formed of carbide-rich areas and of matrix areas placed between the carbide-rich areas. The present invention also concerns a method for manufacturing such a roll.

  • Patent number: 5111568
    Abstract: A roll for use in paper making has a surface comprising a porous material in which the press have been sealed by an electrolyte to achieve optimal paper web dewatering capacity, lessen adherence of a paper web to the roll surface, and to improve the corrosion resistance and mechanical strength of the roll coating. A method for making the roll by electrochemical deposition of the electrolyte in the pores of the roll surface is also disclosed.
