Abstract (en)

[origin: DE10012257A1] The air boundary layer reduction unit is a suction device (26) with resilient sections (28, 30, 32) sliding on the paper ground. Preferred features: The resilient section is a dragging scraper (28), preferably at the outlet side of the suction unit. It is plastic film, sheet metal or a composite. It is curved in the direction of running (L). A brush (30) is included at the inlet side. It has bristles of differing hardness, increasing in the running direction. Spacing between non-flexible sections and the ground, is about 10 mm. Spacing between the trailing edge of the suction unit and the point of incidence of coating medium is 1-100 mm, preferably 10-50 mm. A variant based on the foregoing principles employs an air blower in place of the suction device. In further implementations, a sealing roller is employed and/or a conditioner (a strip) removes the uppermost layers of the air boundary layer.
