Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for the production of wood-based panels according to the preamble of claim 1 and an associated apparatus for carrying out the method according to claim 14.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a method for preheating particles, especially fibers or chips, in a spreader to form a Pressgutmatte in the course of the production of wood-based panels, which makes it possible to avoid the disadvantages presented above and the mentioned possibility of temperature setting in the scattering stations with a minimum of effort to allow.
  • a device for carrying out the method is to be created which is able to work economically.
  • the object is achieved according to claim 1, characterized in that during the dropping of the particle stream from the scattering bin or in the scattering head of nozzles in the particle curtain water vapor at a temperature of 100 ° - 180 ° C, preferably 105 - 130 ° C for adjusting the humidity and the temperature of the particles is injected.
  • the solution for a device for carrying out the method according to claim 14 is that in the scattering machine between dosing bunker and scattering head and / or in the scattering head to baffles steam strips are mounted with steam nozzles over the entire width of the scattering head.
  • the use of nozzles achieves such a high vapor velocity that a particle flow of up to 30 cm in thickness is just penetrated.
  • the exit velocity of the steam from the nozzle is between 5 and 50 m / sec.
  • the exit velocity is selected as a function of the thickness of the particle flow and the spray angle.
  • flat jet nozzles are used, which form a complete steam curtain, through which the particles fall across the full width.
  • the spraying should take place after the particles leave the spreading hopper or the dosing hopper on their way to the spreading head.
  • the nozzles and the tube for supplying steam to the nozzles can be integrated into the baffles or mounted at a certain distance of 1 - 30 cm to the particle flow.
  • the spraying can also take place alternately or simultaneously into the particle flow from both sides. These arrangements allow a steam curtain to be formed into which the particles enter and the vapor losses described above not occur.
  • the steam jet should be directed at an angle of 20-160 °, preferably 90 ° to the particle flow. If too low an angle is chosen, the steam does not fully penetrate the particle flow and the heating is uneven.
  • the amount of steam is adjusted according to the selected preheating temperature as a function of the mass flow passing on the steam strip.
  • fibers are heated to heat a particle stream from 40 t / h of 40 ° to 50 ° C, a steam quantity of 320 kg / h with complete condensation of the injected steam needed, ie 0.8 kg / h of steam per 1 t / h of particulate material. Since a small part of the steam is not condensed and mixed with the air, about 380 kg / h are sprayed onto the particle stream by means of a steam strip.
  • the amount of steam supplied to the steam bar per unit time can be adjusted by means of a proportional steam valve or a pressure reducing valve.
  • Fluctuating particle temperatures in the pressed material mat which are usually caused by outside temperature differences, are often the cause of burst wood-based panels after a press.
  • the temperature of the particles in the pressed material mat can be measured and used to control the amount of steam or to adjust the valve position of the steam valve.
  • a constant particle temperature is obtained in front of a press, which significantly increases the production reliability in terms of bursting of the plates after the press and also allows further optimization of the pressing program.
  • the pressing speed can be increased at a constant particle temperature. This means that the press speed and the system capacity are increased not only by the increased particle temperature but also by more constant production conditions.
  • the particles of the cover layers should preferably be raised to a temperature higher than 60 ° C., preferably 80 ° C., while the particles of the middle layer are heated to a maximum of 60 ° C.
  • a homogeneous density profile with a uniform density across the plate cross section is also desired.
  • the middle layer is not preheated to a significantly higher temperature and the top layer or not heated to a maximum of 50 ° C.
  • the glued particle moisture must be lowered with increasing temperature increase, since the moisture of the particles increases due to the condensation of the steam. For each 1 ° C increase in temperature, the humidity must be reduced by 0.04 - 0.08%.
  • the steam supply pipe for the nozzles should be equipped with a condensate separator.
  • the use of slightly superheated steam prevents wet steam from escaping from the nozzles, which would lead to water spots on the plates.
  • a scattering machine 1 consists of a dosing bunker 2 with scattering head 3 arranged underneath.
  • the particle stream 6 is usually discharged across the width of the spreading head 3 in the dosing bunker 2, depending on the requirement of the wood-based material board to be produced by means of the discharge belt 13 and the discharge rollers 12 and into the scattering head promoted.
  • the particle stream 6 impinges on an adjustable guide flap 4, which directs the particle stream 6 in a targeted manner onto dividing rolls 5, which distribute the particle stream 6 in the scattering head 3.
  • the divided particle stream 6 is finally guided via guide plates 7 onto the orientation rollers 9.
  • Orientation rollers 9 deposit the particles oriented or not orientated on the forming belt 10, as required, and thus form the pressed material mat 11 or, if several are arranged one behind the other Spreading machines 1 also only one layer of a pressed material mat 11.
  • the pressed material mat 11 is then as quickly as possible in a press (not shown) pressed. This can be depending on the equipment a floor or continuously operating press for the production of wood-based panels.
  • steam strips 8 are arranged in the baffles 8, which inject steam into the past sweeping particle stream 6. It is not essential in the context of the invention whether the steam strips 8 are arranged in the upper or lower region of the baffles 7. To avoid stray errors, it is common to construct the baffles 7 so that caking or accumulation of particles, especially on the back, are avoided. It is up to the reading designer how to arrange or encapsulate the steam strips 8 in order to ensure smooth spreading. In a second embodiment according to FIG. 2 , which can also occur in combination with the first, are the steam strips 8 directly above the dividing rollers 5, and below the Dosierbunkers 2.
  • the bed of particle flow 6 does not necessarily take place from a Dosierbunker 2, but can also directly from a Blow-line or via other delivery variants for particles.
  • the particle stream 6 emerging from the dosing bunker 2 is vaporized at the moment by means of the steam strip 8 when it encounters the deflector 4.
  • the spraying takes place over the entire width of the particle stream 6 and can also take place from two sides, but parallel to the transport direction of the forming belt 10, in order to avoid scattering errors.
  • this has a temperature of 100 ° to 180 ° C, preferably from 105 to 130 ° C.
  • a control of the supplied amount of steam depending on the desired temperature of 40 ° - 80 ° C and carried out the particle throughput are, with the Pressgutmatte 11 should leave the spreader and optimally is pressed immediately afterwards.
  • the spraying can be carried out at a speed of 5 to 50m / s.
  • the particle flows 6 of the cover layers must be at 70 ° -80 ° C. and the particle flows 6 of the cover layers Middle layers are preheated to 50 ° - 60 ° C.
  • the particle flows 6 of the outer layers must be preheated to 50 ° C and the particle streams 6 of the middle layers to 70 ° - 80 ° C.
  • the steam nozzles 15 may be formed as flat jet nozzles, be arranged close to tight and in several rows. In this case, it is possible to set the rows of the steam nozzles 15 at different angles to the particle stream 6 in order to increase the efficiency of the steam injection. In this case, it is of course possible to form the steam bar 8 as a tube or as a square, wherein the steam bar 8 should always have means for condensate removal 14 or a condensate bag is attached.
  • the optimum arrangement of the steam strips 8 to the particle flow is 1 to 20 cm away, the steam strip 8 can of course also be designed to be pivotable.
