The pulp suspension is introduced via a headbox into a gap formed between a top wire and a bottom wire and dewatered to a forming roll, which ensures good retention. This is followed by a dewatering device, comprising a arranged in a wire mesh curved suction box with acting against the inner surface of the wire forming strips, which are arranged offset to the second wire provided forming strips. To increase the dry content of the fibrous web prior to transfer to the press device, a wet vacuum, a Siebsaugwalze and a high vacuum suction are provided. The sheet-forming device is adjoined by a press device which comprises a tandem arrangement of two double-felted shoe press devices arranged next to one another in the fibrous web running direction. Due to the press concept, the wet end is characterized by a long length.
Eine andere Ausführung beinhaltet die Kombination einer Blattbildungsvorrichtung in Form eines Hybridformers oder Gapformers mit einer der Blattbildungsvorrichtung nachgeordneten Kompaktpressenvorrichtung. Bei dieser handelt es sich um eine Pressenanordnung mit Funktionskonzentration an einzelnen Elementen, insbesondere mit mehreren Pressspalten - bzw. Nips, wie beispielsweise aus den Druckschriften
Ferner sind Kompaktpressenanordnungen vorbekannt, bei denen die zur Abnahme vom Formiertragsieb der Blattbildungsvorrichtung vorgesehene Abnahmesaugwalze zur Ausbildung wenigstens eines ersten Pressnips verwendet wird. Diese Ausführungen sind jedoch durch eine entsprechende Ausgestaltung und Auslegung der Abnahmesaugwalze mit Eignung zur Ausbildung des oder der Pressspalte sowie einen großen Umschlingungsbereich an der Abnahmesaugwalze charakterisiert, wobei letzterer große Dehnungsunterschiede zwischen der Ober- und Unterseite der Faserstoffbahn bewirkt.Further, compact press arrangements are previously known in which the Abnahmesaugwalze provided for removal from the Formingriefieb the sheet forming apparatus for forming at least a first press nip is used. However, these designs are characterized by an appropriate design and interpretation of the Abnahmesaugwalze suitable for the formation of the press nips and a large wrap on the Abnahmesaugwalze, the latter causes large differences in expansion between the top and bottom of the fibrous web.
Die zur Blattbildung in einer Siebpartie in Form von Hybrid- oder Gapformern verwendeten Former weisen ferner üblicherweise eine Siebsaugwalze auf, wobei die Bahnabnahmeposition einer Abnahmesaugwalze einer Pressenvorrichtung vom Formiertragsieb in der Pressenpartie bei horizontal angeordneten Formern aus geometrischen Gründen relativ knapp über dem Maschinenboden liegt.The former used for sheet formation in a wire section in the form of hybrid or Gapformern also usually have a wire suction, the Bahnabnahmeposition a Abnahmesaugwalze a press device from Formiertragsieb in the press section with horizontally arranged formers for geometric reasons is relatively close to the machine base.
Der Former weist zumindest über einen Teil der Entwässerungsstrecke eine Doppelsiebzone auf. Bei Ausführungen in Form eines Gapformers erfolgt der Eintrag der Faserstoffsuspension über einen Stoffauflauf in den Siebzwickel zwischen den beiden Siebbändern. Gapformer sind dabei vorzugsweise geneigt gegenüber einer horizontalen Ebene angeordnet. In der Entwässerungsstrecke sind neben der Formierwalze Entwässerungseinrichtungen vorgesehen, welche beispielsweise Formierleisten aufweisen, die gegenüber dem jeweiligen Sieb anpressbar sind. Dabei werden Ausführungen mit einander gegenüber in den beiden Siebbändern angeordnetem Formationskasten und Entwässerungskasten verwendet. Bezüglich der einzelnen Ausführungen möglicher Blattbildungsvorrichtungen in Form von Hybridformern wird stellvertretend auf die Druckschriften

Ausführungen der beschriebenen Former in Kombination mit Kompaktpressenanordnungen sind sehr aufwendig, durch eine große Baulänge sowie Höhe und eine große Anzahl an erforderlichen Bauteilen charakterisiert.Versions of the former described in combination with compact press arrangements are very expensive, characterized by a large length and height and a large number of required components.
Das verwendete Pressenkonzept führt ferner zu einer hohen Zweiseitigkeit der gebildeten Faserstoffbahn.The press concept used also leads to a high two-sidedness of the fibrous web formed.
Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Nassteil einer Maschine zur Herstellung von Faserstoffbahnen, insbesondere zur Herstellung von holzfreien Papieren derart weiterzuentwickeln, dass der erforderliche Bauraum, insbesondere die Baulänge minimiert wird und gleichzeitig die Zweiseitigkeit der im Nassteil gebildeten Faserstoffbahn reduziert. Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung soll sich dabei durch einen geringen konstruktiven und technologischen Aufwand auszeichnen.The invention is therefore the object of further developing a wet part of a machine for producing fibrous webs, in particular for the production of wood-free papers such that the required space, in particular the length is minimized while reducing the two-sidedness of the fibrous web formed in the wet part. The solution according to the invention should be characterized by a low design and technological effort.
Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung ist durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 charakterisiert. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind in den Unteransprüchen beschrieben.The solution according to the invention is characterized by the features of
Ein Nassteil einer Maschine zur Herstellung einer Faserstoffbahn, insbesondere Papiermaschine zur Herstellung holzfreier Papiere, mit den Merkmalen aus dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1, ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die die Siebpartie bildende Blattbildungsvorrichtung als Hybridformer oausgeführt und frei von einer Siebsaugwalze ist. Die Erfindung ist somit durch die Kombination einer Ausbildung der Blattbildungsvorrichtung als vorzugsweise im wesentlichen horizontal angeordneter Hybridformer charakterisiert, welchem eine Pressenvorrichtung nachgeordnet ist, die lediglich nur eine einzige Presseneinheit unter Ausbildung eines Spaltes bzw. Nips, das heißt eine einzelne Presseinrichtung, aufweist. Die Blattbildungsvorrichtung ist frei von einer Siebsaugwalze. Die Abnahmeeinrichtung für die Faserstoffbahn, die am Ende der Entwässerungsstrecke in der Blattbildungsvorrichtung vorliegt, ist als einfache Abnahmesaugwalze ausgebildet. Dies bedeutet, dass die Abnahmesaugwalze nicht an der Ausbildung eines Nips beteiligt ist, sondern lediglich die Funktion der Abnahme und Fixierung der Faserstoffbahn am Filzband übernimmt. Dazu ist diese vorzugsweise mit einer einfachen stationären Saugzone ausgeführt, die sich zumindest über den möglichen Umschlingungswinkel der Faserstoffbahn erstreckt und von einem drehbar gelagerten Mantel umgeben ist. Es besteht auch die Möglichkeit, Saugzonen mit unterschiedlicher Saugleistung in Faserstoffbahnumschlingungsrichtung betrachtet hintereinander zu schalten.A wet part of a machine for producing a fibrous web, in particular a paper machine for producing wood-free papers, having the features of the preamble of
Die im Wesentlichen horizontale Anordnung des Hybridformers beinhaltet die größtenteils in einer horizontalen Ebene oder mit geringfügiger Auslenkung aus dieser angeordneten ersten Entwässerungsabschnitte nach dem Stoffauflauf.The substantially horizontal arrangement of the hybrid former includes the first dewatering sections after the head box, which are mostly arranged in a horizontal plane or with a slight deflection therefrom.
Durch die Eliminierung der Siebsaugwalze wird der sich über die gesamte Bahnbreite erstreckende Abnahmebereich beziehungsweise die Abnahmestelle der Abnahmesaugwalze weiter nach oben verlegt. Die Ein-Spalt-Presseneinheit ist dabei zur Realisierung und Optimierung des Ein- und Auslaufpunktes der Faserstoffbahn durch den Pressspalt vorzugsweise geneigt gegenüber einer Senkrechten zu einer horizontalen Ebene in Laufrichtung der Faserstoffbahn angeordnet, vorzugsweise erfolgt die Verkippung im Bereich zwischen 0 bis 20°, ganz besonders bevorzugt 10 und 20° gegenüber einer Senkrechten.By eliminating the sieve suction roll, the removal area extending over the entire web width or the removal point of the removal suction roll is moved further upwards. The one-nip press unit is arranged to realize and optimize the entry and exit point of the fibrous web through the press nip preferably inclined to a vertical to a horizontal plane in the direction of the fibrous web, preferably the tilt takes place in the range between 0 to 20 °, completely more preferably 10 and 20 ° with respect to a vertical.
Um die Anisotropie der Faserlage auf Ober- und Unterseite möglichst gleich zu halten, ist es wichtig, dass der Umschlingungswinkel der Faserstoffbahn an der Abnahmesaugwalze ein vordefiniertes oberes Maß nicht überschreitet. Dadurch wird erreicht, dass der Dehnungsunterschied zwischen der Bahnober- und Unterseite gering bleibt und somit die Faserorientierung durch die unterschiedliche Streckung nur unwesentlich beeinflusst wird. Bei einer Kombination einer flachen unteren Siebführung und Führung an der Abnahmesaugwalze ist dies gewährleistet. Der Umschlingungswinkel der Faserstoffbahn beträgt vorzugsweise ≤ 40°, besonders bevorzugt ≤ 30°, ganz besonders bevorzugt ≤ 25°.In order to keep the anisotropy of the fiber layer on the top and bottom as equal as possible, it is important that the wrap angle of the fibrous web at the Abnahmesaugwalze not exceed a predefined upper level. This ensures that the expansion difference between the web top and bottom remains low and thus the fiber orientation is influenced only slightly by the different extension. With a combination of a flat lower sieve guide and guide on the Abnahmesaugwalze this is guaranteed. The wrap angle of the fibrous web is preferably ≦ 40 °, more preferably ≦ 30 °, most preferably ≦ 25 °.
Die Ausbildung der einzelnen Presse erfolgt vorzugsweise in Form einer sogenannten Schuhpresseinheit. Dies bedeutet, dass ein in Faserstoffbahnlaufrichtung verlängerter Pressspalt geschaffen wird. Dazu umfasst die Presseneinrichtung zwei Walzen, eine erste Walze und eine Gegenwalze, die einen Spalt miteinander bilden und welche in einem ersten und einem zweiten Filz geführt sind. Die Geometrie des Anpresselementes bestimmt die Geometrie des Pressspaltes. Die Länge des Spaltes beträgt vorzugsweise > 250 mm, besonders bevorzugt > 300 mm, ganz besonders bevorzugt > 350 mm.The formation of the individual press is preferably in the form of a so-called shoe press unit. This means that an extended in the fibrous web running direction press nip is created. For this purpose, the press device comprises two rollers, a first roller and a counter roller, which form a gap with one another and which are guided in a first and a second felt. The geometry of the pressing element determines the geometry of the press nip. The length of the gap is preferably> 250 mm, particularly preferably> 300 mm, very particularly preferably> 350 mm.
Gemäß einer besonders vorteilhaften Ausführung ist nach dem Abnahmebereich, der durch die Abnahmesaugwalze und das Siebband gebildet wird, mindestens eine Antriebswalze in dem Siebband des Formers vorgesehen.According to a particularly advantageous embodiment, after the removal region, which is formed by the Abnahmesaugwalze and the wire, at least one drive roller is provided in the wire of the former.
Gemäß einer besonders vorteilhaften Ausführung ist es ferner zur Erhöhung des Trockengehaltes vorgesehen, anstelle der Siebsaugwalze mindestens einen Hochvakuumsauger mit einer Saugleistung > 50 bis 80 kPa vorzusehen, wobei die offene besaugte Länge, insbesondere bei holzfreien Papieren von > 30 bis 160 mm beträgt.According to a particularly advantageous embodiment, it is also provided to increase the dry content, instead of the suction sieve to provide at least one high vacuum suction with a suction> 50 to 80 kPa, the open evacuated length, especially in wood-free papers from> 30 to 160 mm.
Ist eine weitere Umlenkung des Untersiebes notwendig, kann dies durch nicht besaugte Elemente, wie einfache oder gerillte Leitwalzen oder eine Walze mit einer offenen Oberfläche bewerkstelligt werden. Dadurch werden ein Aufschwingen des Untersiebbandes und ein Abheben der Faserstoffbahn verhindert.If a further deflection of the lower wire is necessary, this can be done by unevaporated elements, such as simple or grooved guide rollers or a roller with an open surface. As a result, a Aufschwingen the Untersiebbandes and lifting the fibrous web are prevented.
Gemäß einer besonders vorteilhaften Weiterentwicklung der erfindungsgemäßen Lösung ist die Presseneinrichtung als Schuhpresse mit einer Gegenwalze, die frei von einem Abstützelement im Pressspalt ausgeführt ist, ausgebildet. Diese Ausführung ermöglicht es, auch dickere und qualitativ höherwertige holzfreie Papiere herzustellen. Die Ausgestaltung der Presseneinrichtung bedingt die Ausübung eines geringeren Pressimpulses, vorzugsweise ≤ 5MPa und Linienlasten von vorzugsweise < 700 kN/m. Neben den geringen Investitionskosten weist diese Art von Pressen den Vorteil auf, dass aufgrund des einfachen Aufbaus der Gegenwalze die Wartungskosten erheblich reduziert werden können. Die Schuhlänge an der Presseinheit mit dem flexiblen Pressmantel beträgt auch hier > 290 mm, vorzugsweise > 350 mm. Dabei kann die Schuhpresswalze im oberen oder aber unteren Filzband angeordnet werden, wobei vorzugsweise eine Anordnung im oberen Siebband gewählt wird.According to a particularly advantageous further development of the solution according to the invention, the press device is designed as a shoe press with a counter-roller which is designed to be free of a support element in the press nip. This design makes it possible to produce thicker and higher-quality wood-free papers. The design of the press device requires the exercise of a smaller pressing pulse, preferably ≤ 5MPa and Line loads of preferably <700 kN / m. In addition to the low investment costs, this type of presses has the advantage that due to the simple construction of the counter roll, the maintenance costs can be significantly reduced. The shoe length on the press unit with the flexible press cover is also> 290 mm, preferably> 350 mm. In this case, the shoe press roll can be arranged in the upper or lower felt band, wherein preferably an arrangement in the upper screen belt is selected.
Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung ermöglicht es mit geringem Abnahmewinkel vom Formiertragsieb und ohne Siebsaugwalze die Ausgestaltung eines Nassteils einer Maschine zur Herstellung von Faserstoffbahnen mit geringem Bauraumbedarf und geringer Zweiseitigkeit zu gewährleisten.The solution according to the invention makes it possible to ensure the design of a wet part of a machine for the production of fibrous webs with a low space requirement and low two-sidedness with a low acceptance angle from the forming screen and without suction sieve roller.
Gemäß einer besonders vorteilhaften Ausführung wird ein Hybridformer verwendet, der im wesentlichen durch drei unterschiedliche Entwässerungsabschnitte charakterisiert ist, wobei ein erster Entwässerungsabschnitt eine Vorentwässerungsstrecke bildet, die von einem vom Untersieb gebildeten Längsbereich gebildet wird, der zweite Entwässerungsabschnitt eine Doppelsiebzone aufweist, in dem die zu entwässernde Faserstoffsuspension zwischen einem Obersieb und einem Untersieb hindurchführt wird, wobei an den beiden Sieben jeweils Entwässerungseinrichtungen wirksam werden. Die Doppelsiebzone endet mit der Trennung der beiden Siebbänder, wobei erfindungsgemäß die Führung zumindest über einen erheblichen Teil der Doppelsiebzone, vorzugsweise über die gesamte Doppelsiebzone, in horizontaler Richtung erfolgt und erst im Anschluss daran oder bereits zur gewünschten Trennung von der Führung in der Horizontalen abgelenkt wird. Im daran sich anschließenden weiteren Entwässerungsabschnitt sind Saugelemente vorgesehen, die entweder eine ebene oder eine gekrümmte Oberfläche aufweisen, die am Innenumfang des Siebbandes wirksam wird. Im ersten Entwässerungsabschnitt, dem Langsieb, wird aufgrund der einseitigen Filtration in Schwerkraftrichtung eine Anreicherung von feinen Füllstoffen auf der Blattoberseite erfolgen. Durch die Entwässerung am Obersieb der nachfolgenden Doppelsiebzone, die durch einen entsprechenden Entwässerungskasten im Obersieb charakterisiert ist und einen Formationskasten im Untersieb, wobei in beiden Leisten vorgesehen sind, die am Innenumfang des jeweiligen Verbundes wirksam werden und die Leisten gegeneinander versetzt angeordnet sind, wobei diese entweder lediglich nachgiebig, d.h. elastisch bzw. federnd gelagert oder aber vorzugsweise mit einem variablen Druck gegenüber dem unteren Siebband beaufschlagbar sind, wird der feine Füllstoffgehalt der Oberseite auf das Niveau der Unterseite gebracht. Somit wird hinsichtlich der Verteilung von feinen Füllstoffen eine Symmetrie gewährleistet. Bei einem derartigen Hybridformer hängt der Entwässerungsdruckverlauf im wesentlichen nur vom Anpressdruck der Formierleisten ab, dies bietet den Vorteil, dass hier flexibel auf sich ändernde Verhältnisse reagiert werden kann, insbesondere auf einen veränderten Mahlgrad oder ein Flächengewicht, ohne dass sich die Eigenschaften der gebildeten Papierbahn merklich ändern oder Blattstörungen auftreten. Dabei passen sich die flexiblen Formierleisten den unterschiedlichen Entwässerungsbedingungen bei variablen Schichthöhen an, wobei der Anpressdruck der Leisten konstant bleibt.According to a particularly advantageous embodiment, a hybrid former is used which is essentially characterized by three different dewatering sections, wherein a first dewatering section forms a pre-dewatering section formed by a longitudinal section formed by the lower wire, the second dewatering section has a twin-wire zone in which the dewatering sections Pulp suspension is passed between an upper wire and a lower wire, wherein at the two screens each drainage devices are effective. The twin-wire zone ends with the separation of the two sieve belts, wherein according to the invention the guide takes place over a substantial part of the twin-wire zone, preferably over the entire twin-wire zone, in the horizontal direction and is deflected only subsequently or already to the desired separation from the guide in the horizontal , In the subsequent further dewatering section suction elements are provided which have either a flat or a curved surface which is effective on the inner circumference of the wire. In the first dewatering section, the wire, an enrichment of fine fillers on the top side of the sheet will occur due to the one-sided filtration in the direction of gravity. By draining the upper sieve of the following Doppelzutiebzone, which is characterized by a corresponding dewatering box in the upper sieve and a formation box in the lower sieve, being provided in two strips, which are effective on the inner circumference of the respective composite and the strips are arranged offset from one another, which either only yielding, ie elastic or spring-mounted or preferably with a variable pressure against the lower wire belt can be acted upon, the fine filler content of the top is brought to the level of the bottom. Thus, symmetry is ensured with respect to the distribution of fine fillers. In such a hybrid former, the dewatering pressure curve essentially depends only on the contact pressure of the molding strips, which offers the advantage that it is possible to respond flexibly to changing conditions, in particular to a changed freeness or basis weight, without appreciably affecting the properties of the paper web formed change or leaf disorders occur. The flexible forming strips adapt to the different dewatering conditions with variable layer heights, whereby the contact pressure of the strips remains constant.
Die Siebführung im Auslaufbereich erfolgt dabei wie bereits ausgeführt vorzugsweise in horizontaler Richtung beziehungsweise geringfügig geneigt zu einer in horizontaler Richtung ausgebildeten Ebene. Dementsprechend gestaltet sich auch die Anordnung der Abnahmestelle für die Faserstoffbahn von Seiten der Abnahmesaugwalze. Die Abnahmestelle am Außenumfang ist dabei entweder in einer verlängerten Ebene zur Langsiebführung angeordnet oder aber liegt darunter, wobei hier ein Schrägungswinkel zwischen dem Formiertragsieb, insbesondere dem unteren Siebband in den in einer horizontalen Ebene liegenden Entwässerungsabschnitten und der Abnahmestelle an der Abnahmewalze im Bereich von 0 bis 30°, vorzugsweise 1 bis 10° eingehalten wird. Die Bahnführung an der Abnahmesaugwalze erfolgt derart, dass diese maximal in einem Umschlingungsbereich von 40° an der Oberfläche der Abnahmesaugwalze geführt wird. Dadurch wird vermieden, dass durch Dehnungen an der Faserstoffbahn unterschiedliche Eigenschaften im Bereich der Ober- und Unterseite erzeugt werden.The Siebführung in the outlet area is carried out, as already stated, preferably in the horizontal direction or slightly inclined to a plane formed in the horizontal direction. Accordingly, the arrangement of the take-off point for the fibrous web designed by the Abnahmesaugwalze. The take-off point on the outer circumference is either arranged in an extended plane to the longitudinal screen or is below it, in which case a helix angle between the Formiertragsieb, in particular the lower wire in the lying in a horizontal plane drainage sections and the take-off point on the take-off roll in the range of 0 to 30 °, preferably 1 to 10 ° is maintained. The web guide on the take-off suction roll is carried out in such a way that it is guided to a maximum extent in a wrap-around region of 40 ° on the surface of the take-off suction roll. This avoids that by stretching on the fibrous web different properties in the area of the top and bottom are generated.

Die
Erfindungsgemäß ist der Hybridformer 6 horizontal ausgerichtet, das heißt die Führung der Faserstoffsuspension S erfolgt dazu im wesentlichen in einer horizontalen Ebene im Bereich der Vorentwässerungszone 13 sowie der Doppelsiebzone 14 und vorzugsweise einem Entwässerungsteilabschnitt III-1. Die Entwässerungseinrichtung 17 in der Doppelsiebzone 14 besteht dabei aus einem einer Einlaufwalze 38 nachgeordneten und auch als Obersiebsaugkasten bezeichneten Entwässerungskasten 21 und einem im unteren Siebband 15 im Bereich der axialen Erstreckung unter dem Entwässerungskasten 21 angeordneten Formationskasten 22. Der Entwässerungskasten 21 und der Formationskasten 22 enthalten sogenannte Formierleisten, wobei vorzugsweise die im Formationskasten 22 enthaltenen Formierleisten 23 an der Innenfläche am unteren Siebband 15 gegenüber diesem entweder elastisch gelagert sind oder aber vorzugsweise einzeln anpressbar sind. Die einzelnen Formierleisten im unteren Siebband 15, insbesondere Formationskasten 22 sind separat geführt und in Sieblaufrichtung betrachtet nicht mit den benachbarten Formierleisten gekoppelt. Diese Formierleisten 23 sind zwischen den Formierleisten 24 des Entwässerungskastens 21 positioniert und werden über Mittel 25 zur Realisierung einer variablen Anpresskraft gegenüber dem Innenumfang 26 an das Siebband 15, insbesondere das Untersieb, gedrückt. Die Mittel 25 umfassen im einfachsten Fall Mittel zur Druckerzeugung, beispielsweise pneumatische oder hydraulische Einrichtungen. Der Entwässerungsdruck ist damit über den Druck, der über die Mittel 25 einstellbar ist, variierbar, wobei die Variation in Abhängigkeit der Auftragsdicke sowie der Eigenschaften der Faserstoffsuspension S erfolgt. Insbesondere kann der Anpressdruck in Sieblaufrichtung betrachtet unterschiedlich eingestellt werden. Die einzelnen Formierleisten erstrecken sich dazu zumindest über die Stoffauflauf- bzw. Faserstoffsuspensionsführungsbreite, vorzugsweise über die gesamte Maschinenbreite.According to the invention, the hybrid former 6 is oriented horizontally, that is to say the guidance of the pulp suspension S takes place essentially in a horizontal plane in the region of the predewatering
Erfindungsgemäß wird eine einfache Abnahmesaugwalze 12 verwendet. Diese ist durch wenigstens eine stationäre Saugzone S12 charakterisiert, um welche der Saugwalzenmantel 36 rotiert. Aufgrund der nahezu horizontalen Führung des unteren Siebbandes 15 in den einzelnen Entwässerungsabschnitten I bis III mit geringfügiger Neigung gegenüber der Horizontalen, vorzugsweise im Bereich von 1 bis 20°, ganz besonders bevorzugt 1 bis 10° kann die Abnahmesaugwalze 12 in Bezug auf die Gesamtmaschinenkonfiguration in einer Höhe angeordnet werden, die gegenüber Ausführungen mit aufwendiger Siebsaugwalze höher ist. Dabei kann insbesondere durch den Verzicht auf eine Siebsaugwalze und die nunmehr erfolgende Führung über entsprechende Saugeinrichtungen 18 die Auslenkung des Siebbandes 15 gegenüber der Horizontalen relativ gering gehalten werden, so dass die Lagerachse M12 der Abnahmesaugwalze 12 oberhalb der Verlängerung der die Entwässerungsabschnitte I bis III-1 charakterisierenden Ebene angeordnet werden kann. Die Faserstoffbahn 3 wird am Außenumfang 37 der Abnahmesaugwalze 12 über einen Umschlingungswinkel γ ≤ 40°, vorzugsweise γ ≤ 30°, ganz besonders bevorzugt γ ≤ 25° geführt. Der Umschlingungswinkel γ wird dabei möglichst gering gehalten, um den Dehnungsunterschied zwischen der Ober- und der Unterseite der Faserstoffbahn möglichst gering zu halten und die Faserorientierung durch die unterschiedliche Streckung an den Außenseiten nur unwesentlich zu beeinflussen.According to the invention, a simple
Nach dem Abnahmebereich 19 ist eine Antriebswalze 20 im unteren Siebband 15 angeordnet.After the
Die Presseinrichtung 8 ist gegenüber der Vertikalen in einem Winkel δ im Bereich von 10 bis 20° geneigt ausgeführt, das heißt gegenüber einer Senkrechten zur Bahnlaufrichtung, wobei die Neigung vorzugsweise in Bahnlaufrichtung erfolgt. Dadurch kann aufgrund des höher gelegenen Abnahmebereiches 19 der Abnahmesaugwalze 12 über die gesamte Maschinenbreite optimale Ein- und Auslaufbedingungen für die zwischen den Filzbändern 10 und 11 geführte Faserstoffbahn 3 im Pressspalt 9 realisiert werden und gleichzeitig kann auch die Pressenarbeit im Hinblick auf die Entwässerung optimiert werden. Bei der Ein-Spalt-Presseneinheit 8 handelt es sich vorzugsweise um eine Schuhpresseinheit 27, das heißt eine Presseinrichtung mit einem in Faserstoffbahnlaufrichtung verlängerten Pressspalt 9. Die Länge des Spaltes beträgt vorzugsweise > 250 mm, besonders bevorzugt > 300 mm, ganz besonders bevorzugt > 350 mm. Dieser wird beispielsweise von einer ersten Presswalze 28 mit über einen um ein Tragelement angeordneten flexiblen Mantel 29 realisiert, welcher mittels einer, die Form des Pressspaltes 9 bestimmenden gekrümmten Oberfläche eines Anpresselementes 30 gegen eine Gegenwalze 31 drückt. Die Gegenwalze 31 kann dabei als innengestützte Walze, d.h. mit einem nicht flexiblen sondern starren Walzenmantel 32 und einem ein Stützelement 33 tragenden Joch, wobei das Stützelement 33 zur Manteldeformation gegen den Innenumfang des Walzenmantels 32 anpressbar ist, ausgebildet werden. Diese Ausführung erlaubt hohe Linienlasten und Trockengehalte, wie sie insbesondere bei der Herstellung von dünnen Faserstoffbahnen erwünscht sind. Gemäß einer besonders vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung zur Anwendung bei der Herstellung dickerer Papiere ist die Gegenwalze 31 frei von einem Abstützelement. Eine derartige Ausführung wird in
Die erfindungsgemäße Kombination eines horizontalen Hybridformers 6 mit nachgeordneter Ein-Spalt-Presseneinrichtung 8 und einfacher Abnahmesaugwalze 12 erlaubt den Einsatz eines hinsichtlich Bauraum und erzielbarer Verringerung der Zweiseitigkeit der gebildeten Faserstoffbahn 3 besonders optimierten Nassteiles 1, wobei diese Konfiguration auch auf einfache Art und Weise an Langsiebanordnungen nachrüstbar ist.The inventive combination of a horizontal hybrid former 6 with downstream one-gap press device 8 and simpler

Die offene besaugte Länge an den Saugeinrichtungen im Abschnitt III beträgt dabei vorzugsweise im Bereich von einschließlich 30 bis 160 mm. Die Saugeinrichtung ist als Hochvakuumsauger mit einem Unterdruck im Bereich >50 bis 80 kPa ausgebildet.The open suctioned length of the suction devices in section III is preferably in the range of 30 to 160 mm inclusive. The suction device is designed as a high-vacuum suction with a negative pressure in the range> 50 to 80 kPa.
Ist eine weitere Umlenkung des unteren Siebbandes 15 erforderlich, kann dies durch nicht besaugte Elemente, wie einfache oder gerillte Leitwalzen oder Walzen mit offener Oberfläche realisiert werden, um ein Aufschwimmen des Siebbandes und Abheben der Faserstoffbahn zu vermeiden.If a further deflection of the

Die Abnahmewalze 12 selbst ist im oberen Filzband 10 angeordnet und bildet im Zusammenwirken mit dem unteren Siebband 15 den Abnahmebereich 19 zur Aufnahme der Faserstoffbahn 3 und Weiterführung mit dem Filzband 10.The
