Abstract: A web-tension-measuring device has two plates, which can be rotated relative to one another about an axis of rotation, to be precise such that the one free end of the one plate can be moved towards, or away from, the corresponding, opposite free end of the other plate. A force transducer is arranged in the region of the free ends of the two plates and outside the axis of rotation. The force transducer is configured, during movement of the free ends of the two plates towards one another, to detect a corresponding compressive loading arising from the movement and, during the movement of the free ends away from one another, to detect a corresponding tensile loading between the two plates.

Abstract: A flow body for a format control unit of a Fourdrinier wire machine for producing a web of fibrous material, includes: a flow dividing device which is configured for separating an edge strip from a fibrous stock suspension stream, in a region of a flow division the flow dividing device including a rounded edge with a curvature radius greater than 2 mm.

Abstract: A machine, for at least one of producing and treating a web of fibrous material in which the web is guided along a web guide path by at least one web guide device from one of a web production section and a web input section to pass at least one web treatment device, includes a first apparatus configured for forming a transfer strip of the web and for transferring the transfer strip through the machine, the machine being configured for transferring the web along the web guide path in that the first apparatus is configured for forming the transfer strip which is a leading transfer strip of the web, for guiding the transfer strip through the machine, and for increasing the transfer strip to a full width of the web and thereby performing tail widening; and a second apparatus configured for detecting a break in the web, the second apparatus being configured for responding to a break in one of the transfer strip and the web during a transfer of the web and during an increase in a width of the transfer strip.

Abstract: A machine for producing and/or treating a material web, in particular of paper or board, in which the material web can be guided along a material web guide path by means of at least one material web guide device from a material web production section or material web input section, in order to pass at least one material web treatment device, having an apparatus for forming a transfer strip of the material web and transferring the transfer strip through the machine, it being possible for the material web to be transferred along the material web guide path in that, by means of the apparatus for forming and transferring the transfer strip, a leading transfer strip of the material web is formed and guided through the machine, and the width of the transfer strip is increased to the full material web width (what is known as “tail widening”), and having an apparatus for detecting a break in the material web.

Abstract: Apparatus for treating a fibrous web that includes at least one supporting surface arranged to support a surface of the fibrous web, and at least one sealing device positionable adjacent a surface of the web opposite the surface of the web supported by the at least one supporting surface. The at least one sealing device includes a positionably adjustable sealing element. A distance between the positionably adjustable sealing element and the surface of the web opposite the surface supported by the at least one supporting surface is adjustable.

Abstract: Device for treating a fibrous pulp web that includes at least one support face, which is one of moving and stationary. The fibrous pulp web may be guided over the at least one support face. The device also includes at least one sealing device positioned on a side of the fibrous pulp web facing away from the at least one support face to strip at least a majority of a bordering air layer that entrained by the fibrous pulp web. The at least one sealing device may include a sealing disc that is one of substantially straight and at least partially curved, and that is at least one of elastically formed and resiliently mounted.

Abstract: Upon the measurement of lateral acceleration conditions on a rail vehicle and the optimizing accordingly of the inclination of the load-bearing floor, problems result due to time delays between the measurement and the setting as well as to disturbances which are included in the measurement. They are eliminated in the manner that track data relevant to lateral inclination are stored in a track modeling memory (27) together with the actual position (I) detected, the track data relevant at that time or in the future are called up and the precise floor inclination (.alpha..sub.1) necessary at the time is calculated (29) as a function of the detected instantaneous speed (9) of the vehicle and set (11).
