A method is disclosed of facilitating the removal of contaminates from a belt in a papermaking system. The method includes the step of providing a fluid in a shaped fan such that the interface between the fluid and the belt is non-linear and at least generally forms the shape of an arc.

An apparatus for controlling the conditions of at least one band circulating in a paper making machine along a circulation direction is provided with at least one first detecting device configured to detect at least one first parameter indicative of the humidity of the band and positionable in a first position between a pressing station and a conditioning station of the paper making machine; at least one second detecting device configured to detect at least one second parameter indicative of the humidity of the band and positionable in a second position downstream of the conditioning station; and at least one processing unit configured to determine at least one datum indicative of the condition of the band on the basis of the first parameter indicative of the humidity and of the second parameter indicative of the humidity.

Embodiments are directed to methods for inhibiting contaminants formation during papermaking operation. The method includes preparing an aqueous solution having a pH greater than 7.0 and comprising peroxide; and applying the aqueous solution onto or within one or more of forming wires, press felts and woven through air drying (TAD) belts prior to contacting and transporting a wet paper web to inhibit the formation of wet paper web contaminants onto the surfaces of or within the forming wires, press felts and woven TAD belts.

To provide an easily maintainable spraying apparatus.

The present invention is directed to a spraying apparatus 100 including: a nozzle device 1 including nozzle sections 1a and 1b for spraying a fluid; tubes 2a and 2b via which the fluid is supplied to the nozzle sections 1a and 1b; a cableveyor 3 whose hollow portion 3a accommodates the tubes 2a and 2b; a base 10 to which the nozzle device 1 is attached; a drive transmission section 11 to which the base 10 is attached; a drive section 12 that drives the drive transmission section 11; and a chassis 20 that accommodates the cableveyor 3 and the drive transmission section 11, wherein the drive transmission section 11 and the cableveyor 3 are provided next to each other so as not to vertically overlap each other, and the drive section 12 drives the drive transmission section 11 so that the nozzle device 1 moves via the base 10.

A device for cleaning a continuously revolving clothing in a machine producing and/or processing a paper, cardboard, tissue or other fiber web, includes at least one cleaning nozzle generating at least one fluid cleaning jet directed towards the clothing and a channel discharging fluid and dirt from the clothing in a discharge direction. The discharge channel has a first portion with a receptacle opening at the beginning of the discharge channel and a cleaning opening facing the clothing forming a cleaning zone. The nozzle causes the jet to impact the clothing in the cleaning zone. The receptacle opening is oriented opposite a clothing running direction and the nozzle provides the jet with a velocity component transverse to the running direction striking the clothing in an angular range 20<B<80, particularly 30<B<70 relative to a clothing plane seen in the clothing running direction.
