Abstract: The invention concerns an equipment in the system of rolls in a supercalender for equalizing the profiles of linear loads between the rolls. In the normal way, the system of rolls comprises an upper roll, a lower roll, several intermediate rolls placed between the upper roll and the lower roll, as well as lifting spindles (40) placed at both sides of the system of rolls. The equipment in accordance with the invention comprises lightening devices (10) acting upon the bearing housing (38) at each end of at least one roll, the lightening devices being arranged to eliminate the distortions caused by the weight of the bearing housings (38) and the auxiliary devices attached to same in the lateral areas of the profiles of linear load between the rolls.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a continuously running rewinder with a pressure roller for winding a paper web, for instance, from a supercalender onto a reel-up drum. The rewinder comprises roll stands, which are provided with a primary drive for rotating a rewinding reel-up drum, a pressure roller assembly including the pressure roller via which the web is routed to pass before entering the rewinding reel-up drum and which can be actuated to swing from an open position to a closed position toward the roll stands so that the pressure roller assembly is pressed against the rewinding reel-up drum to form with it a nip for the web. The rewinder includes a pressing bar, whose path of movement is adapted to pass between the pressure roller and the rewinding reel-up drum and via which the web is routed to pass so that when the bar is in its lower position and the pressure roller assembly in its open position the bar holds the web at a lower level than that of the nip.
