Abstract: A variable representing runnability of a paper web to be manufactured with a paper machine or processed with a finishing apparatus is measured and the speed difference between operational groups of the paper machine and/or the finishing apparatus is adjusted on the basis of the measurement of said variable such that the moisture profile of the paper web is measured substantially along the entire width of the paper web, the minimum and maximum values for moisture are defined on the basis of the moisture profile, a drawing window describing the allowable tension to be directed to the paper web is defined, the lower and upper limits of the drawing window being defined on the basis of the minimum and maximum values for moisture, and the speed difference between the operational groups is adjusted so that the paper web tension is within the range defined by the drawing window.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an induction heating coil comprising a litz cable which is wound into a spiral to form a bobbin, and means for cooling said cable indirectly. The litz cable is arranged to be cooled by means of an indirect cooling system that comprises a tube which is wound in an intermeshed fashion with the windings of the litz cable. The present invention relates also to a method on a paper or board machine or on a paper finishing machine, in which method at least one induction heating coil comprising a wound litz cable is used for heating a component, and said coil is cooled indirectly by a cooling medium.

Abstract: In the method for heating a roll in a paper or paperboard machine or finishing machine for paper or paperboard, several adjacent induction coils (2) are used which are located at different points in the axial direction of the roll, and said induction coils are made to move back and forth in the axial direction of the roll with respect to the roll (3) to be heated. The movement is utilized to even out such an irregular power distribution and correspondingly uneven heating response in the axial direction of the roll which result from the structure and/or mutual location of individual coils, and it can be used e.g. for profiled induction heating of a calender roll.
