An applicator head for a curtain applicator for coating a continuous material web with liquid or pasty application medium. The applicator head has an outlet edge extending substantially over the width of the applicator head. The application medium passes out of the applicator head in a free-falling curtain. A rinsing device allows the outlet edge to be supplied with a flowing gaseous rinsing medium. There is also described a method for coating a continuous material web by way of such a curtain applicator. The application medium passes out of the applicator head in the form of a free-falling curtain and subsequently comes into contact with the material web. The region of at least one of the outlet edges can be supplied with a flowing gaseous rinsing medium.

Curtain applicator

A method and a device for the application of starch on a moving fiber web, especially on a packaging paper web such as a testliner or a corrugated medium web, include first applying starch to a first roll and/or a second roll and passing the fiber web through a treatment nip formed by the first roll and the second roll. At least one of the first or the second roll, preferably both rolls, have a hardness of 15 P&J (Pusey & Jones) or lower, preferably 5 P&J or lower and most preferably 1 P&J or lower. The starch is applied to the first roll and/or the second roll by a slot die and/or a slide die and then transferred to the fiber web in the treatment nip.

At least one rinsing device is used to apply a flowing gaseous rinsing medium to the at least one separation edge, and at least one blocking device is suitable for keeping air movements of the ambient air away from the curtain. A method for coating a moving material web is also provided.

Curtain application unit and method for applying an application medium

A curtain applicator for applying a liquid or pasty application medium to at least one surface of a running material web, in particular a fibrous web. The curtain applicator has an applicator nozzle, in particular a slotted nozzle, which under the effect of gravity, and optionally with further forces, is suitable for dispensing a single-tier or multi-tier curtain onto the surface of the material web. The curtain applicator further has a wiping device which is suitable for keeping entrained air carried by the material web away from the curtain. Moreover, there is provided at least one further blocking device which is suitable for keeping air movements of the ambient air away from the curtain.

Curtain applicator and method for applying an application medium

The present invention relates to a doctor device for metering and/or leveling a liquid to pasty medium applied to a moving surface, the surface in the case of direct application being a paper, board or other fibrous web and in the case of indirect application being the surface of a transfer element which transfers the medium to the fibrous web. The doctor device includes a cylindrical metering rod and a pressure tube, with which the metering rod can be pressed against the moving surface for the purpose of metering and/or leveling the medium applied. Additionally, the doctor device is of modular design, having a top part and a bottom part, the top part being provided with a first holder for holding the pressure tube, and the bottom part being provided with a second holder for holding a clamping tube.

Doctor device

The present invention provides a doctor device for metering and/or equalizing a liquid-to-pasty medium applied to a running surface, wherein in the case of direct application the surface is a running paper web, paperboard web or other fibrous web and in the case of indirect application a transfer element which transfers the application medium to the fibrous web. The doctor device has a holder arranged on a support beam for accommodating a doctor element used for the metering and/or equalizing. The holder has a first fixed support face bar and a second moving support face bar, wherein to open and close the holder the second support face bar is displaceable respectively away from the first support face bar or toward it such that in the closed state of the holder the doctor element is fixed from the outside and in the open state of the holder it is released.

A device for applying a medium in the form of a liquid or a paste to a moving substrate, the substrate being a surface of a web of paper, a paper board, fibrous material and/or a transfer element including an application chamber, a first element, a second element and at least one limiting element. The first element is associated with the application chamber on an output side of the application chamber in a direction of movement of the moving substrate. The second element is associated with an input side of the application chamber. The at least one limiting element is associated with a lateral end of the application chamber. The at least one limiting element adjusting a width of application of the medium on the moving substrate. The at least one limiting element having a flexible sealing plate that substantially seals a space between the moving substrate, the first element and the second element. The sealing plate includes a fitted wearing body that is directed toward the moving substrate, with the wearing body being proximate to the first element and the second element.

Application device

A coating/drying device including a first application device, a second application device and a drying device. The first application device for applying application medium to a first side of a fiber material web, moving in a running direction. The second application device for applying application medium to a second side of the fiber material web, the second side being opposite the first side. The second application device being an application device operating without contacting the fiber material web. The drying device is arranged downstream of the first application device and the second application device in the running direction of the fiber material web.

Device for coating and drying both sides of a material web of paper or board

A machine for one of producing and treating, and separately treating a material web including a material web dispensing device, at least one application apparatus, a drying device, a processing device and a material web smoothing device. The material web dispensing device dispenses a material web continuously. The at least one application apparatus is arranged along a material web path after the material web dispensing device. The application apparatus applies a liquid or a pasty application medium to at least one side of the web as it moves along the material web path. The at least one application apparatus including at least one contactless application unit discharging the application medium as a free application medium jet, an application medium curtain, an application medium veil or an application medium droplet spray. The at least one contactless application unit applying the application medium to the material web on the basis of forces imparted to the application medium, movement impulses imparted to the application medium or movement of the application medium induced by the force of gravity. The drying device is arranged along the material web path after the application apparatus. The drying device drying the moving material web to a drying state. The processing device is arranged along the material web path after the drying device. The processing device at least processing, picking up and/or discharging the web.

Machine for making/treating a sheet of material

Two axially parallel rolls are pressed against each other in a device for producing and/or treating a moving material web. Sensor elements are arranged in the force transmission path running from the force-producing elements via the rolls, outside roll bodies of the two rolls. As a result of displacing the sensor elements out of the roll bodies of the rolls, the production of the rolls is less complicated and less expensive. No sensors have to be embedded in the roll bodies, which opens up the possibility of using standard rolls. In addition, the occasional grinding of the rolls can in this way be performed without any regard to the sensor elements. Nevertheless, the pressure prevailing between the rolls can continue to be measured directly, since the sensor elements are arranged in the transmission path of the pressing force.
