Definitions
- the invention relates to a method and a device for producing wet laid nonwovens according to the preamble of claim 1 or 8.
- the closed decrease with the aid of a pick-up felt requires good adhesion of the nonwoven web during its run on the felt underside.
- the pick-up felt must have a sufficient moisture content.
- experience shows that the nonwoven web must contain a considerable proportion of pulp and have a paper-like character, because otherwise the adhesion is inadequate even if the pick-up felt has sufficient moisture, so that the nonwoven web is released from the pick-up felt and causes malfunctions.
- Another approach to this end is to avoid free trains by making compromises in the arrangement of the machine components, e.g. one above the other.
- water is used to form fibers into a fabric or wet fleece.
- the fibers are passed through a sieve in the water. While the water is being sucked through the sieve, the fibers are deposited on the sieve. This process step is called sheet formation.
- the nonwoven still contains significantly more water than fibers after sheet formation.
- About vacuum suction water is further removed from the nonwoven, but the substance at the interface to the screen, the Usually formed by a Schrägsiebformer, not a stable product, but a loose composite of fibers.
- the object of the present invention the object of providing a method and apparatus for producing wet nonwovens to improve the web performance at the start of production and / or after a production interruption.
- the temporarily closed trains offer the possibility of permitting, on the one hand, free traction between the treatment units / machine components and, on the other hand, assigning the temporarily closed trains to an automated solution so that the nonwoven web can be listed at higher machine speeds.
- the wet nonwoven fabrics produced on a screening device especially when long fibers are used, they have a sufficient strength to be replaced with compressed air from the screen of the screening device.
- a web-laying device at the interfaces between the screening device and a subsequent treatment unit or at interfaces between two adjacent treatment units, which is designed as a temporarily closed train. Detected from the temporarily closed draw is a final leader of the nonwoven web which is cut from the moving web on the downstream side of a wire of the screening device. This strip is transferred with air flows of the temporarily closed train to the respective subsequent treatment unit.
- the cut Endauf arrangementsband is removed from the screen to be transferred, for example by compressed air to a transport device. From the subsequent treatment unit, this band can be caught using an air flow, so that the created transfer of the Endauf arrangementssbandes represents a controlled temporarily closed train.
- the invention relates to a method and an apparatus for the production of wet-laid nonwovens.
- An example provided for wet-laid plant 1 is in Fig. 1 a and Fig. 1 b shown.
- a fiber suspension device 2 Thereafter, arranged in series are a fiber suspension device 2, a screening device 3, at least one subsequent treatment unit 4 and optionally a rewinder 5.
- a fiber suspension device 2 In the case of Fig. 1 a and Fig. 1 b shown wet-laid plant 1 is provided as at least one treatment unit 4 a Wasserstrahlverest Trents Rhein.
- further treatment units 6, 7 are provided.
- the treatment unit 6 is for example a drying screen and the treatment unit 7 is for example a dryer.
- the screening device 3 is shown as Schrägsiebformer. Alternative embodiments of the screening device 3 can be used. Between the screening device 3 and the subsequent treatment unit 4, an interface 8 is provided. For example, an interface 9 is provided between the treatment unit 4 and the treatment unit 6. Both interfaces 8, 9 are formed as free trains when the nonwoven web 10 is listed.
- the nonwoven web 10 produced has a sufficient strength, so that the material can be removed via an air flow from the wire 11. This is illustrated in the Fig. 2 and Fig. 3a, 3b combined with Fig. 4 ,
- the process according to the invention for the production of wet laid nonwovens provides that an aqueous suspension with fibers is deposited on a wire 11 of the screening device 3 and dewatered through suction boxes 12 under the wire is for sheet formation of a nonwoven web 10, which is removed from the screen 11 and at least one subsequent treatment unit 4 is supplied before the nonwoven web 10 is finally wound on a roll 23.
- the nonwoven web is transferred from the wire 11 to the at least one subsequent treatment unit 4 and / or at an interface 9 between two treatment units 4, 6 at a production start and / or after a production interruption with the aid of a web presentation 13.
- the respective temporarily closed train of a Bruauf arrangement 13 is generated by air currents. These flows of air act on an end band 14 which is cut by a cutter 16 which acts on the nonwoven web 10 downstream of the screen 11. By means of the cutting device 16, the Endiller operationssband 14 is separated from the residual web 15 of the nonwoven web 10. By means of the Endauf operationssbandes 14 the Bruauf operation takes place while the residual web 15 falls into a pulper 17.
- the Endiller arrangementsband 14 is lifted according to the invention as part of the running nonwoven web 10 by blowing by means of a compressed air device 18 from the screen 11.
- a compressed air device 18 By generating negative pressure at a transport path 19, the Endiller arrangementsband 14 is attached to a transport path formed by the transport path 19 and received by suction on the respective subsequent treatment unit 4.
- the suction on the subsequent treatment unit 4 for example, by means of a Saugfang liked 21st
- wet nonwoven products have sufficient strength when they have been dewatered on a screening device 3, which is designed, for example, as a skew screening machine. This is especially true when long fibers are used for nonwoven web production. Due to this generated strength of the nonwoven web through the screening device 3, the screen web can be released with compressed air from the compressed air device 18 from the screen 11 for a web performance. The lifted off the screen 11 Endauf operationsband 14 has sufficient stability to be transferred by compressed air to the transport path 19 device.
- the transport path 19 is in Fig. 2 shown as air guide device. In Fig. 3 the transport path 19 is designed as a suction conveyor belt. Both transport pathways 19 of the Fig. 2 and the Fig.
- the treatment unit 4 is for example a hydroentanglement.
- the final leader 14 can be further stabilized by such hydroentanglement.
- the transfer of the Endaufmentsbandes turn with compressed air from the wire 20 of the Treatment unit 4 are lifted and transferred with a vacuum-generating conveyor 19 to a next wire 22 of a subsequent treatment unit 6 according to the same principle.
- the Endauf operationsband 14 After the screen belt 22 such a vacuum dewatering the Endauf operationsband 14 is usually sufficiently stable to be inserted into a rope scissors. The lifting can in turn be done with compressed air through the wire. The Endauf operationsband 14 can be caught by a baffle plate or another screen belt and transferred to a rope scissors. The described transfer of the Endauf operationssbandes 14 with the temporarily closed train can be easily performed at production speeds between 200 to 250 m / min and higher.
- the nonwoven web 10 can be driven on the screening device 3 to the complete fabric width.
- the wet fleece is sufficiently stable to be guided over the entire fabric width directly after the screening device 3 via a free train to the next treatment unit.
- a change in the lift of the nonwoven web could quickly lead to web breaks. Therefore, preferably under the screen belt 11 of the screen 3, a variable, along the screen belt 11 displaceable vacuum suction 26 is mounted. After the nonwoven web runs in full width on the production line, with this vacuum suction box 26, the position of the web lift via an adjustment of the vacuum suction box 26 on the one hand and the adjustment of the vacuum on the other hand can be defined exactly. Thus, the free train between the vacuum suction 26 of the screening device 3 and the Saugfang worn 21 of subsequent treatment unit 4 can be defined exactly. An uneven lifting of the web is prevented.
- the web tension between the two screen belts 11, 20 is preferably controlled with a sag control. The same explanations apply to the interface 9 between two treatment units 4, 6.
- the Endiller arrangementsband 14 is removed according to the invention as part of the moving nonwoven web 10 by suction by means of a Ab Cyprussaugers 30 with a suction member 31 from the screen 11.
- a vacuum cleaner 30 At the top of the transport path 19 is arranged as a vacuum cleaner 30, a suction roll, which can act on a screen 11 so as to suck the Endiller arrangementsband 14 by means of negative pressure directly from the wire 11.
- Fig. 3a made statements accordingly.
- vacuum generation at the transport path 19, namely the Endauf arrangementsband 14 is then forwarded, as above to Fig. 3a was carried out in detail.
- the tuyere 18, according to Fig. 3a is provided, then preferably omitted.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zur Herstellung von nassgelegten Vliesstoffen nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 bzw. 8.The invention relates to a method and a device for producing wet laid nonwovens according to the preamble of
Aus
Beide Abnahmearten haben Nachteile. Die Überführung des Vlieses in freiem Zug zum nachfolgenden Bearbeitungsaggregat oder auf ein Transportband hat den Nachteil, dass die Vliesbahn eine erhebliche initiale Nassfestigkeit aufweisen muss, um die Abnahme vom Siebtuch und die freie Überführung bis zum nachfolgenden Aggregat ohne Abriss zu überstehen. Selbst wenn die Bahn nicht reißt, ist die Bahn bei der Abnahme vom Sieb als Folge ihrer Haftung an dem Siebtuch beträchtlichen Zugspannungen ausgesetzt, wodurch es zu einer Dehnungsbeanspruchung kommt, welche durch Veränderung der Geschwindigkeit der nachfolgenden Aggregate ausgeglichen werden muss.Both types of acceptance have disadvantages. The transfer of the web in free train to the subsequent processing unit or on a conveyor belt has the disadvantage that the nonwoven web must have a considerable initial wet strength to survive the decrease of the sieve cloth and the free transfer to the subsequent unit without demolition. Even if the train does not tear, the train is Upon removal from the wire, as a result of its adhesion to the wire cloth, it is subjected to considerable tensile stress, which results in a strain which must be compensated for by changing the speed of the following aggregates.
Die geschlossene Abnahme unter Zuhilfenahme eines Pick-up-Filzes setzt eine gute Haftung der Vliesbahn während ihres Laufes an der Filzunterseite voraus. Dazu muss der Pick-up-Filz einen ausreichenden Feuchtigkeitsgehalt aufweisen. Außerdem muss erfahrungsgemäß die Vliesbahn einen erheblichen Zellstoffanteil enthalten und einen papierähnlichen Charakter besitzen, weil sonst selbst bei ausreichender Feuchtigkeit des Pick-up-Filzes die Haftung mangelhaft ist, so dass sich die Vliesbahn von dem Pick-up-Filz löst und Betriebsstörungen verursacht.The closed decrease with the aid of a pick-up felt requires good adhesion of the nonwoven web during its run on the felt underside. For this purpose, the pick-up felt must have a sufficient moisture content. In addition, experience shows that the nonwoven web must contain a considerable proportion of pulp and have a paper-like character, because otherwise the adhesion is inadequate even if the pick-up felt has sufficient moisture, so that the nonwoven web is released from the pick-up felt and causes malfunctions.
Um diese Nachteile zu vermeiden, ist gemäß
Ein weiterer Lösungsansatz insoweit ist die Vermeidung freier Züge durch Kompromisse in der Anordnung der Maschinenkomponenten z.B. übereinander.Another approach to this end is to avoid free trains by making compromises in the arrangement of the machine components, e.g. one above the other.
Bei der Nassvliesproduktion wird Wasser genutzt, um Fasern zu einem Flächengebilde bzw. Nassvlies zu formen. Dabei werden die Fasern im Wasser über ein Sieb geführt. Während das Wasser durch das Sieb abgesaugt wird, werden die Fasern auf dem Sieb abgelegt. Diese Prozessstufe wird Blattbildung genannt. Je nach Art der Faser beinhaltet der Vliesstoff nach der Blattbildung immer noch deutlich mehr Wasser als Fasern. Über Vakuumsauger wird dem Vliesstoff weiter Wasser entzogen, dennoch ist der Stoff an der Schnittstelle nach dem Sieb, das üblicherweise durch einen Schrägsiebformer gebildet wird, kein stabiles Produkt, sondern ein loser Verbund von Fasern.In wet-laid fabric production, water is used to form fibers into a fabric or wet fleece. The fibers are passed through a sieve in the water. While the water is being sucked through the sieve, the fibers are deposited on the sieve. This process step is called sheet formation. Depending on the type of fiber, the nonwoven still contains significantly more water than fibers after sheet formation. About vacuum suction water is further removed from the nonwoven, but the substance at the interface to the screen, the Usually formed by a Schrägsiebformer, not a stable product, but a loose composite of fibers.
Aus den dargelegten Gründen ist es deshalb vorteilhaft, bei voller Geschwindigkeit des Formers zu beginnen. Nur wenn der Former bei voller Produktionsgeschwindigkeit arbeitet, kann die erforderliche Stoffkonsistenz erzeugt werden, um einen Faserverbund herzustellen, der eine ausreichende innere Festigkeit hat, um auf das nächste Förderband bzw. auf das nächste Behandlungsaggregat bzw. die nächste Maschinenkomponente überführt zu werden. Bei niedrigen Produktionsgeschwindigkeiten waren, wie bereits vorstehend ausgeführt, freie Züge zwischen den Behandlungsaggregaten üblich. Mit der Steigerung der Produktionsgeschwindigkeiten sind diese aus Sicherheitsgründen insbesondere für die Bahnaufführung nicht mehr möglich.For the reasons set forth, it is therefore advantageous to start at full speed of the former. Only when the former is operating at full production speed can the required stock consistency be created to produce a fiber composite that has sufficient internal strength to be transferred to the next conveyor belt or to the next processing unit or machine component. At low production speeds, as stated above, free trains between the treatment units were common. With the increase in production speeds these are no longer possible for safety reasons, especially for the web performance.
Ausgehend von diesem Stand der Technik liegt dem Gegenstand der vorliegenden Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zur Herstellung von Nassvliesen zu schaffen, die die Bahnaufführung bei Produktionsbeginn und/oder nach einer Produktionsunterbrechung verbessern.Based on this prior art, the object of the present invention, the object of providing a method and apparatus for producing wet nonwovens to improve the web performance at the start of production and / or after a production interruption.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Merkmale der Ansprüche 1 bzw. 8 gelöst.This object is solved by the features of
Hierdurch wird erreicht, dass zur Herstellung von nassgelegten Vliesstoffen unter Verwendung einer Siebeinrichtung die erforderlichen Behandlungsaggregate/ Maschinenkomponenten in bekannter Weise der Reihe nach angeordnet werden können. Zwischen der Siebeinrichtung und dem mindestens einen nachfolgenden Behandlungsaggregat sind freie Züge vorgesehen. Dies ist vorteilhaft insbesondere dann, wenn alle Behandlungsaggregate/Maschinenkomponenten für eine wirtschaftliche und energetisch optimierte Arbeitsweise mit unterschiedlichen Siebbändern ausgestattet werden sollen. Dies ist beispielsweise insbesondere dann der Fall, wenn die Herstellung eines nassgelegten Vliesstoffes einen Schrägsiebformer, eine Wasserstrahlverfestigungseinrichtung und ein Entwässerungsband umfasst. Die sich zwischen diesen Behandlungsaggregaten ergebenden Schnittstellen sollen sich möglichst gegenseitig nicht beeinträchtigen, so dass insoweit freie Züge vorteilhaft sind.This ensures that the required treatment units / machine components can be arranged in a known manner in order to produce wet-laid nonwovens using a sieve. Between the screening device and the at least one subsequent treatment unit free trains are provided. This is advantageous, in particular, if all treatment units / machine components are to be equipped with different screen belts for economical and energy-optimized operation. This is particularly the case, for example, when the production of a wet-laid nonwoven fabric comprises a Schrägsiebformer, a Wasserstrahlverfestigungseinrichtung and a drainage tape. Which Interfaces resulting between these treatment units should as far as possible not interfere with each other, so that insofar free traits are advantageous.
Für moderne Schrägsiebanlagen werden einerseits hohe Produktionsgeschwindigkeiten gefordert, andererseits bestehen Sicherheitsrichtlinien, die das Eingreifen der Operator in die Maschine untersagen. Da auf Schrägsiebproduktionslinien das Produkt bei voller Produktionsgeschwindigkeit aufgeführt wird, ist dafür erfindungsgemäß eine automatisierte Lösung möglich.On the one hand, modern production lines require high production speeds, on the other hand there are safety guidelines that prohibit the intervention of the operator in the machine. Since the product is listed at full production speed on skew-screen production lines, an automated solution is possible according to the invention for this purpose.
Erfindungsgemäß bieten die temporär geschlossenen Züge die Möglichkeit, zum einen freie Züge zwischen den Behandlungsaggregaten/Maschinenkomponenten zuzulassen und zum anderen die temporär geschlossenen Züge einer automatisierten Lösung zuzuordnen, damit die Vliesstoffbahn bei höheren Maschinengeschwindigkeiten aufgeführt werden kann.In accordance with the invention, the temporarily closed trains offer the possibility of permitting, on the one hand, free traction between the treatment units / machine components and, on the other hand, assigning the temporarily closed trains to an automated solution so that the nonwoven web can be listed at higher machine speeds.
Vorteilhaft wird genutzt, dass die auf einer Siebvorrichtung erzeugten Nassvliesstoffe insbesondere dann, wenn lange Fasern verwendet werden, diese eine hinreichende Festigkeit besitzen, um mit Druckluft vom Sieb der Siebvorrichtung abgelöst zu werden.Advantageously, it is used that the wet nonwoven fabrics produced on a screening device, especially when long fibers are used, they have a sufficient strength to be replaced with compressed air from the screen of the screening device.
Erfindungsgemäß ist deshalb vorgesehen, an den Schnittstellen zwischen der Siebeinrichtung und einem nachfolgenden Behandlungsaggregat bzw. an Schnittstellen zwischen zwei benachbarten Behandlungsaggregaten eine Bahnaufführungseinrichtung vorzusehen, die als temporär geschlossener Zug ausgebildet ist. Erfasst von dem temporär geschlossenen Zug wird ein Endaufführungsband der Vliesbahn, das auslaufseitig eines Siebbandes der Siebeinrichtung von der laufenden Bahn geschnitten wird. Dieser Streifen wird mit Luftströmungen des temporär geschlossenen Zuges auf das jeweils nachfolgende Behandlungsaggregat übertragen. Gleiches gilt für die Schnittstellen zwischen jeweils zwei benachbarten Behandlungsaggregaten, z.B. zwischen dem Siebband einer Wasserstrahlverfestigung und einem nachgeordneten Entwässerungsband.According to the invention, it is therefore provided to provide a web-laying device at the interfaces between the screening device and a subsequent treatment unit or at interfaces between two adjacent treatment units, which is designed as a temporarily closed train. Detected from the temporarily closed draw is a final leader of the nonwoven web which is cut from the moving web on the downstream side of a wire of the screening device. This strip is transferred with air flows of the temporarily closed train to the respective subsequent treatment unit. The same applies to the interfaces between two adjacent ones Treatment units, for example, between the wire belt of a hydroentanglement and a downstream dewatering belt.
Weiterhin ist vorgesehen, dass das geschnittene Endaufführungsband vom Sieb abgenommen wird, um beispielsweise per Druckluft an eine Transporteinrichtung übergeben zu werden. Von dem nachfolgenden Behandlungsaggregat kann dieses Band unter Einsatz einer Luftströmung gefangen werden, so dass die geschaffene Überführung des Endaufführungsbandes einen kontrolliert temporär geschlossenen Zug darstellt.Furthermore, it is provided that the cut Endaufführungsband is removed from the screen to be transferred, for example by compressed air to a transport device. From the subsequent treatment unit, this band can be caught using an air flow, so that the created transfer of the Endaufführungsbandes represents a controlled temporarily closed train.

Mittels der Schneideinrichtung 16 wird das Endaufführungsband 14 von der Restbahn 15 der Vliesbahn 10 abgetrennt. Mittels des Endaufführungsbandes 14 erfolgt die Bahnaufführung, während die Restbahn 15 in einen Pulper 17 fällt.The respective temporarily closed train of a

Erfindungsgemäß wurde festgestellt, dass Nassvliesprodukte eine hinreichende Festigkeit besitzen dann, wenn sie auf einer Siebeinrichtung 3 entwässert wurden, die beispielsweise als Schrägsiebmaschine ausgebildet ist. Dies gilt insbesondere auch dann, wenn zur Vliesbahnherstellung lange Fasern verwendet werden. Aufgrund dieser erzeugten Festigkeit der Vliesbahn durch die Siebeinrichtung 3 kann die Siebbahn mit Druckluft aus der Drucklufteinrichtung 18 vom Sieb 11 für eine Bahnaufführung gelöst werden. Das vom Sieb 11 abgehobene Endaufführungsband 14 besitzt ausreichende Stabilität, um per Druckluft an die Transportwegeinrichtung 19 übergeben zu werden. Die Transportwegeinrichtung 19 ist in
Die so geschaffene Überführung des Endaufführungsbandes 14 stellt einen temporär geschlossenen Zug dar. Wesentlich ist insoweit, dass durch die erfindungsgemäße Ausbildung eine kontrollierte Abhebung, Überführung und die dann folgende kontrollierte Aufnahme möglich ist.The thus created transfer of the
Wie in
Nach dem Siebband 22 einer solchen Vakuumentwässerung ist das Endaufführungsband 14 meist ausreichend stabil, um in eine Seilschere eingeführt zu werden. Die Abhebung kann wiederum mit Druckluft durch das Siebband erfolgen. Das Endaufführungsband 14 kann durch ein Luftleitblech oder ein weiteres Siebband gefangen und in eine Seilschere übergeben werden. Die beschriebene Überführung des Endaufführungsbandes 14 mit dem temporär geschlossenen Zug kann problemlos bei Produktionsgeschwindigkeiten zwischen 200 bis 250 m/min und höher durchgeführt werden.After the
Nachdem das Endaufführungsband 14 durch den Trockner, beispielsweise Behandlungsaggregat 7, und eine Qualitätssicherung 25 bis zum Aufwickler 5 geführt worden ist, kann die Vliesbahn 10 auf der Siebeinrichtung 3 auf die komplette Warenbreite breitgefahren werden. Dabei ist das Nassvlies ausreichend stabil, um auch über die gesamte Warenbreite direkt nach der Siebeinrichtung 3 über einen freien Zug auf das nächste Behandlungsaggregat geführt zu werden.After the
Bei den eben erwähnten Produktionsgeschwindigkeiten könnte eine Veränderung in der Abhebung der Vliesbahn schnell zu Bahnabrissen führen. Daher ist vorzugsweise unter dem Siebband 11 der Siebeinrichtung 3 ein variabler, entlang des Siebbandes 11 verschiebbarer Vakuumsaugkasten 26 montiert. Nachdem die Vliesbahn in voller Breite auf der Produktionslinie läuft, kann mit diesem Vakuumsaugkasten 26 die Position der Warenbahnabhebung über eine Justierung des Vakuumsaugkastens 26 einerseits und der Einstellung des Vakuums andererseits exakt definiert werden. Damit wird der freie Zug zwischen dem Vakuumsaugkasten 26 der Siebeinrichtung 3 und der Saugfangeinrichtung 21 des nachfolgenden Behandlungsaggregats 4 exakt definiert werden. Eine ungleiche Abhebung der Warenbahn wird verhindert. Die Warenbahnspannung zwischen den beiden Siebbändern 11, 20 wird mit einer Durchhangregelung vorzugsweise kontrolliert. Die gleichen Ausführungen gelten für die Schnittstelle 9 zwischen zwei Behandlungsaggregaten 4, 6.At the production speeds just mentioned, a change in the lift of the nonwoven web could quickly lead to web breaks. Therefore, preferably under the
