Definitions

  • the invention concerns a method for drying of paper, which method comprises the following steps:
  • the invention also concerns a dry end of a paper machine, which comprises a forward dryer section and a finishing section, which finishing section comprises a coating/surface-sizing equipment, an after-dryer, a calender, and a reeling station, and the dry end of the paper machine further comprises elements and/or assemblies and combinations formed out of said elements and at least one steam box in view of controlling the curling of the paper web at least in the area of the finishing section.
  • twin-wire draw and/or single-wire draw is/are employed.
  • twin-wire draw the groups of drying cylinders comprise two wires, which press the web one from above and the other one from below against heated cylinder faces. Between the rows of drying cylinders, which are usually horizontal rows, the web has free and unsupported draws, which are susceptible of fluttering, which may cause web breaks, in particular so when the web is still relatively moist and, therefore, of low strength.
  • each group of drying cylinders includes just one drying wire, on whose support the web runs through the whole group so that the drying wire presses the web on the drying cylinders against the heated cylinder faces, whereas on the reversing cylinders or rolls between the drying cylinders the web remains at the side of the outside curve.
  • the drying cylinders are placed outside the wire loop, and the reversing cylinders or rolls inside said loop.
  • the tendency of curling of paper is already affected in connection with the web formation, in particular at the sheet formation stage (for example, the applicant's Sym-FormerTM) by means of selection of the difference in speed between the slice jet and the wire, and by means of other running parameters.
  • the sheet formation stage for example, the applicant's Sym-FormerTM
  • a suitable initial curl form is regulated for the sheet in order that the curling of the paper after one-sided or double-sided copying could be optimized.
  • the reactivity of curling i.e. the extent to which curling occurs per unit of change in moisture content, is affected to a greater extent by means of a multi-layer structure of the paper, which is produced in connection with the web formation in the wet end.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a dry end of a paper machine in which no inverted groups are needed at all, but which, however, meets all other requirements that are imposed.
  • the object of the present invention is to approach these problems from a new point of view and to suggest novel solutions for said problems, which solutions are contrary to conventional modes of thinking.
  • a method for drying a surface-treated paper web or equivalent in an after-dryer of a paper machine as well as a dryer section of a paper machine for applying the method, wherein, in view of compensating for a tendency of curling of the paper web, in the after-dryer the paper web is dried in a dryer group/groups making use of a normal single-wire draw, and that, in connection with or after the drying, the paper web is treated by means of a device/devices in order to compensate for a tendency of curling of the paper web, which devices are, for example, a steam box, a blower unit, a moistening device, and/or a soft calender.
  • devices are, for example, a steam box, a blower unit, a moistening device, and/or a soft calender.
  • FI Patent Application No. 963024 a method for drying a paper to be surface-treated, in particular fine paper, in an after-dryer in a paper machine is described as well as an after-dryer in a paper machine for carrying out the method, wherein, after the surface-sizing or coating, the paper web is dried by means of an upwards open inverted group with single-wire draw, in which connection the tendency of curling formed in the paper web in the forward dryer section can be substantially eliminated and/or compensated for.
  • the object of the present invention is further development of the earlier solutions described above so that the curling of the paper can be controlled more efficiently in the dry end of the paper machine.
  • the dry end of a paper machine in accordance with the invention is mainly characterized in that the effect of said steam box is intensified by cooling the web prior to said steam box.

  • both the forward dryer section and the after-dryer have been accomplished exclusively by means of dryer groups with normal single-wire draw.
  • blowing through the wire is employed for regulating the curling; from above the different cylinders hot air is blown out of impingement blow devices, and evaporation takes place through the wire and affects the drying and, thus, the curling of the paper.
  • steam boxes and possibly blowings of moist air taken from the forward dryer section are employed for controlling the curling.
  • a lower support belt has also been added to a dryer group, which belt circulates against the lower faces of the reversing rolls while guided by its own guide rolls, and which support belt is so impermeable that it prevents evaporation of water out of the web from its lower face, whereby the tendency of curling can be controlled.
  • the forward dryer section has been accomplished exclusively by means of dryer groups with single-wire draw, to which groups, where applicable, impingement blow equipments have been added for regulation of the curling and, if necessary, also in order to increase the capacity.
  • the after-dryer has been accomplished so that it includes both dryer groups with single-wire draw and those with twin-wire draw, the curling being controlled by means of the dryer groups with twin-wire draw.
