  • Patent number: 7059051
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing fluted rolls, in particular for corrugating machines, comprises the steps of providing a fluted-roll blank which has a central longitudinal axis and a longitudinal direction that is parallel thereto and a surface; providing a grinding device for grinding, on the surface, flutings that run in the longitudinal direction, with the flutings comprising heads and roots that are parallel to each other and are regularly and alternately distributed along the circumference of the surface; and grinding fluting heads on the surface by means of the grinding device, with the fluting heads having the same cross-sectional curvature in the longitudinal direction.

  • Publication number: 20040241328
    Abstract: An adhesive applicator unit for a web of corrugated board comprises a frame which houses an adhesive applicator roll, and an adhesive pre-metering roll which is disposed underneath the applicator roll, and an adhesive re-metering roll which is disposed by the side of the applicator roll, each of which is rotatably drivably mounted. Formed between the adhesive pre-metering roll and the adhesive applicator roll is an adhesive pre-metering nip where pre-metering of the adhesive takes place. Between the adhesive applicator roll and the adhesive re-metering roll, provision is made for an adhesive re-metering nip where final re-metering and calibration of the adhesive film takes place.

  • Patent number: 6575217
    Abstract: The invention pertains to a device for splicing webs, in particular, paper webs for manufacturing corrugated cardboard, with a splicing unit (9) for preparing and splicing the rear end of a nearly empty active roll (5akt) to the front end of a web (5spl) to be spliced, and with the splicing unit (9) containing one respective intake (11) for the active web (5akt) and for the web (5spl) to be spliced. The device also contains a web unrolling device (13) that serves for accommodating several web rolls (21), with the web unrolling device (13) being constructed in such a way that it is able to accommodate at least three web rolls (21) such that a first web of the three webs delivered from the web rolls (21) can serve as the active web (5akt), a second web of the three webs (21) can serve as the web (5spl) to be spliced to the active web and the third web roll (21) can be simultaneously exchanged and/or the web in question can be prepared for the next splicing process.

  • Patent number: 6142048
    Abstract: The cutting device (1) for a continuous material, in particular a corrugated web, consists of rotating paired cutter bars (5, 6) mounted in bearings above one another, with blades (8) which run in the lengthwise direction of the cutter bars. Each cutter bar (5, 6) is connected directly with a driving motor (10) on each end (9). A synchronizing device (11, 12, 13) for the cutter bars (5, 6) is present.FIG. 1 is the main illustration.

  • Patent number: 6126771
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for manufacturing corrugated board in which the corrugated board is produced by gluing at least three individual constituent webs (3, 5, 7) respectively on two sides oriented toward each other, wherein in a single work cycle, at a first glue application point (A), a first constituent web (3) is coated with glue and at a second assembly point (B), the first constituent web (3) is glued to a second constituent web (5) to form a half-finished web (31), and wherein in the same work cycle, at a second glue application point (D), glue is applied to a third constituent web (7) or to the half-finished web (31) and the third constituent web (7) is glued to the half-finished web (31) at a second assembly point (C) that is removed in the web travel direction in relation to the first assembly point (B). Furthermore, the invention relates to a device for carrying out the process according to the invention.

  • Patent number: 6092579
    Abstract: A machine for the production of a single-face lined web of corrugated board comprises a pressing device for pressing a liner web on a paper web provided with a corrugation. This pressing device comprises a vapor permeable pressing belt which consists of a fabric of metal with warp threads and weft threads. The warp threads arc provided in groups of three warp threads at a time, the distance of two neighboring groups of warp threads being smaller than the width of each group of warp threads. Preferably, the material of the weft threads is softer than the material of the warp threads, the weft threads having notches, in each of which a warp thread is disposed.

  • Patent number: 5918519
    Abstract: An apparatus for the manufacture of sheets of corrugated web of variable size comprises a margin cutting arrangement, which is disposed--in the conveying direction--downstream of, and separated from, longitudinal cutting arrangements and which is provided with cutting devices for cutting margins, which are permanently in engagement with the web of corrugated board. In the case of changes of format width accompanied by changes of the width of the margins to be cut off, this makes it possible that the latter can be cut continuously, which helps avoid malfunction.

  • Patent number: 4306932
    Abstract: Apparatus is provided for the production of a corrugated pasteboard having a cover coating on at least one side. The apparatus includes a toothed corrugating element, a toothed corrugating counter-element co-operating therewith, a glue applicator and a drying apparatus. At least one corrugating element is an endless element (2) which loops at least partially around the other element (1). In this manner the noise generation and roll wear are reduced, the quality of the corrugated cardboard is improved, the paper consumption and difficulties of adjustment of parts of the apparatus are reduced and the feed and introduction of the paper web are facilitated.
