Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for coating a material web on both sides, in particular a paper or cardboard web, according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • Devices with a pair of press rollers are known for applying glue (starch, CMC, synthetic glue) or pigment dispersions to paper or cardboard webs on both sides, the web being guided through the press nip.
  • glue starch, CMC, synthetic glue
  • An application and metering system is arranged on each of the press rolls, which first applies a metered film of coating material to each press roll, which is then transferred to the web in the press nip.
  • a generic device is described in DE-GM 84 14 413.
  • a nozzle chamber which is open towards the press roll is used as the application and metering system and is closed at its outlet end by a metering element which can be pressed against the press roll.
  • a doctor rod is used as the metering element, which has grooves on its circumference that were produced by wrapping it with a wire.
  • the amount of coating material applied to a roller can be influenced via the groove cross section.
  • Other known metering elements are doctor bars with a smooth surface, doctor blades or doctor strips. With these elements, the application weight can be varied using the contact pressure.
  • the invention has for its object to improve a generic device so that the amount of coating material applied by each system can be determined for separate adjustment and / or control of the application and metering systems.
  • the amount of coating material taken up by the web is determined not directly on the web, but on each of the press rolls before transfer to the web. This enables the quantitative determination of the coating material delivered to the web by each application and metering system.
  • Another advantage is that when using dosing elements that are subject to wear - z. B. wire-wound doctor rods -, monitoring of wear is possible in order to replace worn out dosing elements early. Because of the wear, the quantity applied to the respective press roll changes; when a certain limit value is reached, the metering elements can be changed so that damage to the roll surface due to wire breakage, etc. is avoided.
  • the subclaims contain preferred, since particularly advantageous, embodiments of the invention.
  • the second measuring device on each press roll according to claim 2 each measures the amount of coating material not taken up by the material web before the rolls are newly coated. This enables an even more precise determination of the amount of coating material actually taken up by the material web, in particular in the case of types of paper or cardboard in which the transfer from a press roller to the web cannot be exactly predetermined.
  • Measuring devices for determining the amount of water on the press rolls according to claim 3 are sufficient in many applications to be able to set or control the coating device exactly.
  • the proportion of solid constituents applied to the web can be calculated with sufficient accuracy from the composition of the coating material.
  • Measuring systems based on infrared absorption according to claim 4 have proven to be particularly advantageous. They use the effect that molecular compounds, e.g. B. OH and CH, absorb light energy at precisely defined wavelengths. For this purpose, a light beam emitted by a halogen lamp is emitted onto the measuring surface to be tested (coated press roll surface). The reflected radiation is collected and evaluated. So a quantity of substance located on the roller surfaces can be measured directly and the proportion absorbed by the web, e.g. B. determine the amount of water or solids.
  • molecular compounds e.g. B. OH and CH
  • Fig. 1 shows roughly schematically a coating device according to the invention in side view.
  • the coating device shown in the drawing is integrated in a paper machine. It consists of two identical press rolls 1, 2, between which a press nip 3 is formed.
  • the paper web 4 to be coated is fed to the press nip 3 from above such that the press roll 1 is wrapped somewhat.
  • the web 4 is deflected by a guide roller 5 to a drying device, not shown.
  • the press rolls 1, 2 are rubberized on their surface. Outside the area of the press nip 3, an application and metering system 6, 7 is arranged on each press roll 1, 2, which can be pivoted onto the respective press roll 1, 2 in the area not wrapped by the web 4.
  • Each of the application and metering systems 6, 7 has an application chamber 6.1, 6.2 open to the respective press roll, into which the coating material is fed under pressure.
  • each application chamber 6.1, 7.1 is closed off by a metering element 6.2, 7.2, which strips off the excess coating material applied to the press roll 1 or 2 to the desired film thickness.
  • a metering rod with a structured surface that is to say elevations and depressions, is preferably used as the metering element, with which metering can be carried out volumentrically.
  • Such doctor rods are known. You assign z. B. circumferential grooves that are generated by wrapping with a wire.
  • doctor rods with a smooth surface, doctor blades or doctor strips can also be used as dosing elements.
  • a measuring device 8, 9 for continuously determining the amount of coating material applied to the press rolls 1, 2 is arranged on each press roll 1, 2 in the direction of rotation behind the application and metering system 6 or 7 and in front of the press nip 3.
  • a measuring system based on the absorption of infrared radiation is preferably used.
  • infrared radiation is generated by a halogen lamp, a spectrum of which is selected with filters and radiated onto the surface to be tested.
  • the reflected radiation is collected and evaluated by a concave receiver.
  • filters infrared radiation is preferably radiated onto the roller surfaces in a spectrum which contains wavelengths which are absorbed by OH compounds. In this way, the water content of the coating material located on the roller surfaces can be determined quantitatively.
  • the coating material is delivered to the web 4 in the press nip 3.
  • the proportion of solids can be calculated from the composition of the coating material.
  • the device is calibrated at the beginning. For this purpose, different amounts are applied to the press rolls 1, 2 with the same water or solids content and then the amounts taken up by the web are measured; e.g. B. by weighing or moisture measurement directly on the web. With the calibration curve determined in this way, the amount of coating material taken up can be calculated directly from the amount on the roller surfaces during operation.
  • a further measuring device is arranged on each press roll 1, 2 in the area behind the press nip 3 and in front of the respective application and metering system 6, 7, with which the amount of coating material remaining on the roller surfaces after transfer to web 4 and before recoating is determined.
  • the amount of coating material taken up by the material web 4 can thus be determined as the difference between the two respective measured values.
  • the amount of coating material applied to the web 4 by each application and metering system 6, 7 can be determined separately. This enables a uniform coating on both sides, in particular the even application of pigments on each side of the web. Furthermore, the device according to the invention offers the possibility of monitoring the wear of metering elements. Due to the wear, the order quantity given to the respective press roll changes. In the case of dosing elements with a structured surface, the application quantity drops because the passage cross-section is reduced when worn. When a certain limit value is reached, the dosing elements can be exchanged early in order to avoid damage to the roller surface due to wire break etc.
