Abstract (en)
[origin: GB2331469A] A pulp refiner 10 incorporates at least one rotatable disc 12 connected to a drive shaft 14. Stock consisting of pulp in water is supplied to the refiner through an inlet 22 causing the stock to pass between the rotating disc 12 and an adjacent face of a stator disc 38 to refine the pulp. The rotor disc 12 is caused to rotate sequentially faster and slower than the surrounding stock in order to assist the shredding, opening and fibrillating of the pulp. The refining process is maximised by inducing resonance of the rotor disc 12 in the same circumferential direction as its rotation, with the flexure that permits such resonance coming from slight torsional movement of the shaft 14. The resonance is monitored and consequently adjusted to maximise circumferential vibration.
