Abstract
A method and device in the regulation of the headbox of a paper machine/board machine, in which additional flows are introduced into the pulp suspension at different points across the width of the headbox. The concentration of the additional flows is different than the average concentration of the pulp suspension. The additional flows are introduced through additional-flow pipes to the vicinity of inlet openings of turbulence tubes of a turbulence generator. The grammage profile of the web in the direction of width of the web is regulated in the headbox by adjusting the distance of the end of the additional-flow pipe/pipes from the turbulence generator, whereby the amount of the additional flow entering into the additional-flow pipes and, at the same time, the amount of the pulp suspension flow are regulated.
