Technical field
[0001] In general, present invention relates to producing of fiber webs in a fiber web production
line. More especially the present invention relates to a method according to preamble
part of the independent method claim and to a system according to preamble part of
the independent system claim.
[0002] In this description and the following claims by fiber webs are meant for example
a paper and board webs.
Background
[0003] The fiber webs are produced by fiber web production methods in fiber web production
systems, typically in fiber web production lines. As known from the prior art in fiber
web production methods and systems typically comprise an assembly formed by a number
of apparatus arranged consecutively in the fiber web production line. A typical fiber
web production and treatment line comprises a head box, a wire section and a press
section as well as a subsequent drying section and a reel-up. The production and treatment
line can further comprise other devices and/or sections for finishing the fiber web,
for example, a pre-calender, a sizer, a final-calender, a coating section. The production
and treatment line also typically comprises at least one slitter-winder for forming
customer rolls as well as a roll packaging apparatus.
[0004] It is known that a fiber web production lines can be hundreds of meters long. Modern
fiber web production lines can produce over 450,000 tons of fiber web per year. Speed
of the fiber web production line can exceed 2,000 m/min and width of the fiber web
in the production line can be more than 11 meters.
[0005] In the fiber web production lines, the production of the fiber web takes place as
a continuous process. A fiber web completing in the fiber web production line is reeled
by the reel-up around a reeling shaft i.e. a reel spool into a parent roll, diameter
of which can be more than 5 meters and weight more than 160 tons. The purpose of the
reeling is to modify the fiber web manufactured as planar to a more easily processable
form. On the reel-up located in the fiber web production line the continuous process
of the fiber web production line breaks for the first time and shifts into periodic
operation.
[0006] The fiber web of the parent roll produced in the fiber web production line is fullwidth
and typically even more than 100 km long so it is slitted into component fiber webs
(partial fiber webs) with suitable width and length for the customers of the fiber
web mill and wound around winding cores into so-called customer rolls (partial fiber
web rolls) before delivering them from the fiber web mill. The slitting and winding
up of the fiber web takes place as known in an appropriate separate machine i.e. in
a slitter-winder.
[0007] On the slitter-winder, the parent roll is unwound in an unwinding section, the wide
web is slit on a slitting section into several narrower component webs which are wound
up on a winding section around winding cores, such as spools, into customer rolls.
When the customer rolls are completed, the slitter-winder is stopped and the wound
rolls i.e. the so-called set is removed from the slitter-winder and new winding cores
for a new set of new component fiber web rolls are to be transferred to winding stations
for winding the new set of the new component fiber web rolls. Then, the process on
the slitter-winder is continued with the winding of a new set. These steps are repeated
periodically until the fiber web runs out of the parent roll, whereby a parent roll
change is performed and the operation starts again as the unwinding of a new, next
parent roll.
[0008] Slitter-winders employ winding devices for winding the customer rolls of different
types depending on, inter alia, on the type of the fiber web being wound. On slitter-winders
of two drum winder type, the fiber web is guided from the unwinding via guide rolls
to the slitting section, where the fiber web is slit into component fiber webs, which
are further guided via guide rolls to the winding (support or carrier) drum of the
two drum winder and slit component webs are wound around a winding core on support
of the winding drums. On slitter-winders of the multistation winder type, the web
is guided from the unwinding via guide rolls to the slitting section, where the fiber
web is slit into component fiber webs, which are further guided via guide rolls to
the winding drum/drums on the winding stations to be wound up onto winding cores into
customer rolls. In multistation winders the adjacent component fiber webs are wound
up on different sides of the winding drum/drums. Multistation winders have one to
three winding drums and in them each component web is wound to a component fiber web
roll in its own winding station.
[0009] It is known from prior art to provide clean/good quality edges for the fiber web
by trimming the width of the full width fiber web before the reel-up by cutting in
longitudinal direction an edge strip of the fiber web, i.e., removing a trim strip
from the wide fiber web by water jet cutting in order to provide desired trim width
for the fiber web to be reeled onto the parent roll. One arrangement known from prior
art is disclosed in patent publication
US7166194 B2. In this known arrangement a water jet cutter for separation of a trim strip from
a moving paper, cardboard, tissue or other type of fiber web, in a machine for the
production and/or conversion of the fiber web is provided. The water jet cutter is
located approximately above a pulper, for the purpose of capturing the trim strip
that is separated from the fiber web. The arrangement has also a support plate equipped
with a cutout for the water jet, so that it can pass through unimpeded. According
to an example of the arrangement the water jet cutter is located in the dryer section
of the fiber web production or conversion line and in order to produce clean edges
on the fiber web, the water jet cutter is utilized in the unsupported section of the
fiber web, for example at the end of one dryer group, and specifically at the end
of the last dryer group.
[0010] It is also known from prior art to provide a trim strip slitting and removal arrangement
for slitting a trim strip from a fiber web in connection with a slitter-winder. In
patent application publication
WO2009022053A1 is disclosed one known arrangement for this purpose. This known arrangement comprises
an edge strip trimmer and a supporting device for the edge strip adapted at a distance
from the slitting point of the edge strip trimmer in the running direction of the
trimmed strip, in which the supporting device is adapted in transverse direction relative
to the running direction of the web in the region of the slitting point on the trim
strip's side. It is disclosed that by this arrangement even an edge strip with a width
up to 300 mm can be cut. In this known arrangement the edge slit device is based on
roller blades. One disadvantage in cutting by blades is that the cutting causes dusting
and also web breaks may occur.
[0011] In patent application publication
WO2018236264A1 is disclosed a paper making machine comprising a forming section in which a fiber
web can be formed; a drying section in which a formed fiber web can be dried; and
a reel-up on which a dried fibrous web can be wound into a roll, and the paper making
machine has at least one water jet cutting device arranged to cut the fiber web that
is moving in the machine direction such that the fiber web is divided into at least
one waste part and a remaining part and the waste part is guided away from the path
of the remaining part.
[0012] In patent application publication
US2002124701A1 is disclosed a movable integral water jet web cutting and trim chute unit adapted
for relative movement inwardly of an outside edge of a web travelling in a first direction
to cut a strip from the travelling web and to remove the strip, the movable integral
water jet web cutting and trim chute unit comprising: a support plate adapted to extend
relative to the plane of the travelling web to support the web immediately prior to
and after the strip is cut from the edge of the travelling web as the unit moves relative
to the web, and the support plate having a cutting aperture; a water jet nozzle positioned
behind the support plate aligned with the cutting aperture for directing a water jet
through the cutting aperture and away from the support plate to cut through the web
and form the strip; a trim chute extending out of and away from the plane of the travelling
web from the support plate and having an opening in the support plate downstream of
the cutting aperture, the trim chute opening being bounded by a first side edge extending
in the first direction of web travel substantially in alignment with the cutting aperture
to limit that portion of the web passing over the trim chute opening; and negative
pressure means associated with the trim chute for drawing the strip into and through
the trim chute.
[0013] In patent application publication
EP3855373A1 is disclosed a method of generating optimal trimming patterns for trimming raw rolls
and/or sheets for fulfillment of a flat sheet stock and/or customer orders.
[0014] In patent application publication
WO2018236264A1 is disclosed a paper making machine comprising a forming section with least one water
jet cutting device arranged to cut the fibrous web that is moving in the machine direction
such that the fibrous web is divided into at least one waste part and a remaining
part and wherein the paper making machine is arranged to direct the at least one waste
part away from the predetermined path and to convey the remaining part further in
the machine direction along the predetermined path.
[0015] In practice a very common problem in connection with production of fiber webs is
that width of the fiber web on the reel-up does not correspond to width required based
on widths of required customer rolls to be produced on the sitter winder as in practice
used edge cutting devices (trim cutting devices) at the slitter-winder typically are
not capable of cutting wide enough edge strips for removal of wide enough trim strip
such, that the width of the full width web would correspond to that required by the
set of the customer rolls to be produced. This leads to producing extra partial fiber
web trim rolls as the too wide trim strip is slitted by the slitter itself and then
wound in the winder. In some cases these extra rolls can be sold, but seldom at a
reasonable price and thus this is an uneconomical option. Thus, these extra rolls
often are to be stored to be rejected and to be delivered to repulping even though
being of quality fiber web. This is typically labor- and time-consuming at least partially
manual work and often totally manual work.
[0016] In practice mostly the known edge cutting devices for controlling the trim of the
fiber web need a support device on opposite side of the fiber web in respect of the
cutting device. The cutting devices typically are based on either water jet cutting
or on cutting by rotating blades. After cutting the trim strip is typically guided
to repulping via a pipe-like removal device, which typically has an underpressure
created by an ejector, a shredder blower or an underpressure blower. In these types
of devices the maximum of the trim strip is 150 mm, in some rare cases at most 300
mm.

adjustment, torque values of center drives, are controlled.
[0039] Additionally according to an advantageous aspect the information of the width of
fullwidth fiber web at the trim cutting is transmitted to calculations of drives of
the slitter-winder.
[0040] According to an advantageous aspect of the invention the changing width of the fiber
web is covered by movements of core chucks of the winding section of the slitter-winder
and if needed extensions for the core chucks can be used.
[0041] According to an advantageous aspect the cut trim strips are removed to a pulper,
advantageously to a pulper located below the last drying cylinder of the drying section,
or to a reject conveyor leading to a pulper.
[0042] According to an advantageous embodiment the trimming i.e. the edge cutting of the
fiber web is performed in the drying section of the fiber web production line at a
location, where the fiber web runs between two, following each other located drying
cylinders or at a drying cylinder or between last drying cylinder of the drying section
and a guide roll following the last drying cylinder.
[0043] According to an advantageous aspect the trimming i.e. the edge cutting of the fiber
web is performed by water jet cutting or by rotating blades or by laser cutting. Water
jet cutting is advantageous in view of dust forming during the cutting as it does
not cause dusting. Advantageously, water jet of the water jet cutting is a high pressure
water jet, typically with pressure over 600 bar, advantageously over 1500 bar. The

or drive group, the threading can be performed with a narrower fiber web.
[0046] According to an advantageous aspect the fiber web is trimmed by cutting from least
one edge of the fiber web in longitudinal direction of the fiber web a trim strip
and the trim strip is removed from the system of producing of fiber webs at a different
location in respect of location of the trimming after the trimming. Advantageously,
the trim strip is guided to a pulper or to a reject conveyor leading to a pulper.
Advantageously, the cutting is performed by a water-jet cutting device. This provides
that no separate system for removing the trim strip is needed.
[0047] According to an advantageous aspect the fiber web is trimmed in the drying section
by cutting at least one edge of the fiber web in longitudinal direction of the fiber
web before or at a drying cylinder of the drying section such, that from the fiber
web a trim strip is removed and the trim strip is removed from the drying section
at a different location in respect of location of the trimming. Advantageously, the
trim strip is guided to a pulper or to a reject conveyor leading to a pulper. Advantageously,
the trim strip is removed from the drying section at a location on other side of the
drying cylinder, before or at which the trim strip is cut, preferably by doctoring.
Thus, after cutting the trim strip is first guided over the drying cylinder, before
or at which the trim strip is cut. Advantageously, the cutting is performed by a water-jet
cutting device. This provides that no separate system for removing the trim strip
is needed.
[0048] Advantageously, the trim strip is guided to a pulper or to a reject conveyor leading
to a pulper. Advantageously, the cutting is performed by a water-jet cutting device.
This provides that no separate system for removing the trim strip is needed.
[0049] By the invention and its advantageous features several benefits are achieved: There
is no limitations to the maximum width of the trim strip as the trim strip is cut
already before the reel-up, preferably before the last drying cylinder of the drying
section, advantageously at the end of the drying section based on the required with
of the customer rolls to be produced in the slitter-winder. The need of making extra
fiber web trim rolls is eliminated or at least minimized. Also, due to the invention
the trim strips can be re-used in the process. Additionally, even eliminating the
edge trimming at the slitter-winder may be achieved. As the trimming is performed
already before the last drying cylinder of the drying section, advantageously at the
end of the drying section, the possible slack edges caused by the drying shrinkage
are removed before the slitter-winder and thus the outermost customer rolls i.e. edge
rolls produced by the slitter-winder are of good quality.
[0050] The exemplifying embodiments of the invention presented in this patent application
are not to be interpreted to pose limitations to the applicability of the appended
claims. The verb "to comprise" and its derivatives are used in this patent application
as an open limitation that does not exclude the existence of also unrecited features.
The features described hereinafter are mutually freely combinable unless explicitly
stated otherwise.
Brief description of the drawings
[0051] In the following the invention is explained in detail with reference to the accompanying
drawing to which the invention is not to be narrowly limited, in which
In figure 1 is shown schematically an example of the system and the method of producing
of the fiber webs.
In figure 2 is shown schematically another example of the system and the method of
producing of the fiber webs.
In figure 3 is shown schematically an example of a trim cutting device to be utilized
int the system and the method of producing of the fiber webs.
Detailed description
[0052] During the course of the following description like numbers and signs will be used
to identify like elements according to the different views which illustrate the invention
and its advantageous examples. In the figure some repetitive reference signs have
been omitted for clarity reasons.
[0053] In the example of figure 1 the production line of a fiber web product is shown very
schematically and it is well understood by one skilled in the art that the actual
production line for the fiber web product comprises several components, parts and
devices which can be constructed in various ways known as such to one skilled in the
art.
[0054] In the example of figure 1 the production line for fiber webs comprises a head box
10, a wire section (i.e. forming section) 20 and a press section 30 as well as a subsequent
drying section 40 a reel-up 80 and a slitter-winder 90. The production line may also
comprise a sizer 50 and a pre-calender 60 and a coating section 70. The production
line may also comprise a calender and/or a roll packaging apparatus or a sheet cutter.
After the sizer 50 drying equipment is typically located to dry the fiber web and
also after the coating section 70 typically drying equipment is located to dry the
fiber web before reeling the fiber web in the reel-up 80 to a parent roll. In production
of the fiber webs from the head box 10 pulp is fed onto the wire section (i.e. forming
section) 20, in which water is removed from the pulp by water removal means. In the
press section 30 water is further removed by pressing the fiber web in press nips
and/ or in shoe - or belt nips. In the subsequent drying section 40 the fiber web
is dried, typically by contact drying by leading the fiber web to run in contact over
heated surfaces of drying cylinders. In the example of the figure 1 after the drying
section 40 in the sizer 50 sizing substance is applied onto the fiber web and thereafter
the fiber web is typically drying by following drying equipment, which may comprise
drying cylinders. Thereafter in the example of the figure 1 the fiber web is pre-calendered
in the pre-calender 60 and at least one coating layer is applied onto the fiber web
in the coating section 70. In the reel-up 80 the fiber web is reeled into the parent
roll, which is unwound in an unwinder of the slitter-winder 90 and then slit into
partial webs in a slitter, which are wound to customer rolls in the winder. The customer
roll may be packed in a roll packaging machine. The fiber web may also be cut into
sheets in a sheet cutter.
[0055] The fiber web production line comprises at least one trim cutting device 100 before
the reel-up, preferably before the last drying cylinder of the drying section 80 for
cutting the fiber web in longitudinal direction of the fiber web. The trim cutting
device 100 is advantageously located at the end of the forming section 20 and/or at
the end of the drying section 40 and/or in connection with the possible drying equipment
of the sizer 50 and/or of the coating section 70. Advantageously, the location of
the trim cutting device is such, that no supporting devices for the run of the fiber
web at the cutting location is needed as tension of the fiber web W keeps the fiber
web W at the cutting location supported. The trim cutting device 100 is advantageously
a water jet cutting device or a cutting device comprising rotating blades or a laser
cutting device. The trim cutting device 100 is positioned to a beginning point in
width direction of the fiber web such, that trim strip of required width is provided
to set the width of the fiber web to correspond to that required by the set of the
customer rolls to be produced in the slitter-winder.
[0056] The trim cutting device 100 performs the trimming i.e. the edge cutting of the fiber
web to the trim width defined by the total width of the customer rolls to be slitted
and wound in the slitter-winder 90 and the trimming is performed before the reeling
on the reel-up 80, advantageously in the drying section 40, of the fiber web production
line. The trim width is controlled based on information 105 of the required with for
the set of the customer rolls to be produced in the slitter-winder 90. The cut trim
strip is cut in transverse direction after the longitudinal cutting. The cut trim
strip is removed to a pulper 115 or to a reject conveyor leading to a pulper 115.
Advantageously, the cut trim strip is removed directly to the pulper or to the reject
conveyor by a doctor and no removal pipes or like equipment are needed.
[0057] In figure 2 is schematically shown end part of the drying section 40 comprising drying
cylinders 41, 42 located in two rows. The fiber web W runs alternating around one
drying cylinder 41 in one row and around another cylinder 42 in the other row. As
shown in the example of figure 2 advantageously the trimming i.e. the edge cutting
of the fiber web by the trim cutting device 100 is performed in the drying section
40 of the fiber web production line at a location, where the fiber web runs between
two, following each other located drying cylinders 41, 42 (fig. 2) or at a drying
cylinder 42.
[0058] In figure 3 an example of a trim cutting device 100 to be utilized int the system
and the method of producing of the fiber webs W. The trim cutting device comprises
a water jet cutting nozzle 130 creating a high pressure water jet 135 by which the
fiber web W is cut. The water jet cutting nozzle 130 may also comprise at least one
air blower 137 creating an air shield around the high pressure water jet 135 to avoid
disturbances in the water jet 135. On the opposite side of the fiber web W in respect
of the water jet cutting nozzle a suction pipe 120 is arranged for removing from the
fiber web W detached matter, such as cuttings, shearings, fibers, excessive water,
in the cutting by the water jet 135. The suction pipe 120 has an away from the fiber
web W tapering form and its towards the fiber web W located end 125 has a trumpet-like
form. At the end 125 towards the fiber web W of the suction pipe 120 inside the suction
pipe 120 may be arranged at least one water flushing means 127 to enhance the removal
of the fiber web during the cutting detached matter and to keep the suction pipe 120
clean. In some cases there might be along the run of the fiber web W at least one
supporting means 140 for supporting the run of the fiber web W and for keeping the
distance between the fiber web W and the end 125 of the suction pipe 120 steady and
as desired. Advantageously, the location of the trim cutting device is such, that
no supporting devices for the run of the fiber web at the cutting location is needed
as tension of the fiber web W keeps the fiber web W at the cutting location supported.
The trim cutting device 100 is positioned to a beginning point in width direction
of the fiber web such, that trim strip of required width is provided to set the width
of the fiber web to correspond to that required by the set of the customer rolls to
be produced in the slitter-winder. Thus, the water jet cutting device 130 and the
suction pipe 120 are configured to be correspondingly movable.
[0059] In the description in the foregoing, although some functions have been described
with reference to certain features and examples, those functions may be performable
by other features and examples whether described or not. Although features have been
described with reference to the certain examples, those features may also be present
in other examples whether described or not.
