  • Patent number: 9885153
    Abstract: Disclosed is a device for forming an extended nip between a counter roll and a shoe roll for machining a material web, wherein the shoe roll has a support and a flexible roll shell, which can rotate around the support (4) and which rests in the region of the extended nip upon a head surface of a press shoe guided on the support, and the press shoe displaceably rests on the support in order to generate a press pressure via a pressure chamber to which fluid can be applied, the pressure chamber is disposed as a pressure pad, on which the press shoe rests surficially on the rear side, wherein the pressure pad is inserted into a groove-like chamber, wherein the press shoe has a stamp-like section on the rear side, which stamp-like section descends into an invaginable pressure pad in order to perform reciprocating movements, and the pressure pad is guidedly supported on the groove-like chamber along a pressure pad lateral wall that forms a roll wall.

  • Patent number: 9856603
    Abstract: A method for producing a fibrous pulp web, in which a fibrous pulp suspension is dewatered in a Twin Wire Former to form a fibrous pulp web which is dried with a TAD dryer. A pre-dewatering device with a hood and suction roll is provided after the Twin Wire Former and before the TAD dryer. The fibrous pulp web is guided through the pre-dewatering device between exactly two machine cloths. The machine cloth between suction roll and the web is a porous felt, and the machine cloth between web and hood is a structured wire. A volume flux of hot drying fluid greater than 100 m3/(m2·min), preferably greater than 250 m3/(m2·min,) is drawn through the fibrous pulp web into the suction roll.

  • Publication number: 20040221480
    Abstract: A device for drying a paper web has a drying drum mounted at least partially inside a housing, whereby the cylinder wall of the drying drum is provided with a large number of apertures or openings so that hot air can flow through the cylinder wall, a heating device to generate hot air, a feed device to apply the hot air to the paper web, and a device to carry off the air containing moisture. In order to permit a compact design, the housing surrounds at least one hood which partly encloses a cylinder wall of the drying drum with the heating device being located inside the hood. Both the feed device and the heating device should be located preferably inside the hood.
