A method for a treatment of a product web which is transported in an advance direction includes guiding the product web through a treatment gap which is formed by a first treatment roll being arranged in a first working position and a contour tool, providing a second roll, moving the second roll into a second working position in which the second roll forms a second treatment gap with the counter tool, and moving the first treatment roll into a first parked position in which the first treatment roll does not form a treatment gap with the counter tool.

A suction or blow thermal roller includes: a cylindrical body extending along a longitudinal direction; the cylindrical body including at least one inner tubular element and at least one outer tubular element that is concentrically arranged around the inner tubular element; the inner tubular element includes an outer diameter d and the outer tubular element includes an inner diameter D, being D>d; two hubs, each arranged at one end of the cylindrical body; at least one heat-exchange chamber realized between the inner tubular element and the outer tubular element. The roller includes a coating layer for the inner tubular element. The coating layer includes at least one rib arranged along a helical path around the longitudinal direction. The at least one rib is made in one piece in the coating layer, realizing at least one helical channel between the coating layer and the outer tubular element.

The present invention relates generally to an industrial roll, comprising: a substantially cylindrical metallic core; a base layer that is adhered to and circumferentially overlies the core; a polymeric topstock layer that circumferentially overlies the base layer; and a hydrophobic and/or amphiphobic coating that circumferentially overlies the topstock layer.

A process for the production or treatment of a fibrous web, in particular a paper or cardboard web, includes the following steps: a. drying of the fibrous web in a dryer section; b. subsequent cooling of at least one first side of the fibrous web by way of convection cooling, whereby the fibrous web has a temperature of 65 C. or less on at least the first side after cooling, in particular 50 C. and less; c. apply steam to at least the first side of the fibrous web, in particular the temperature on the first side after steam application is at least 70 C., optionally more than 80 C. or 90 C.; and d. treatment of the fibrous web in at least one calendering nip.

A roll cover and a roll in particular for use in a machine line for the production or processing of a fibrous web is provided, wherein the roll cover includes a radial outer functional layer which provides the surface of the roll cover in contact with the web, and wherein the functional layer has structural elements, in particular in the form of grooves and/or bores, wherein the functional layer is constructed of an elastomer material with a Poisson number greater than 0.4, between 0.45 and 0.5.

A technical roll, in particular for paper manufacturing, having an elongated roll core and at least one first covering which is provided on the roll core, wherein an empty duct or conduit is provided, which is suitable for receiving a polymer fibre and extends over the length of the roll such that the polymer fibre can be introduced at one end of the empty duct. The application also relates to a technical roll having a polymer fibre, to a method for introducing the polymer fibre into an empty duct, and to the use of a polymer-based optical waveguide as a sensor in a technical roll.

A calender for the treatment of web-like materials, including a fixed structure adapted to support two heated rollers shaped to be connected to the fixed structure, to a drive unit and to a heating system. The calender includes automatic elements for engaging and respectively for disengaging the rollers to and from the fixed structure, the drive unit and the heating system; the automatic elements are controlled by a programmable control unit and each of the rollers has an engaging surface shaped to be engaged by mechanical elements for moving the rollers which move the rollers between the calender and one or more waiting or parking stations while the rollers are at a temperature between 50? C. and 200? C.

A brake is provided for an idler roll (10) of a fiber web machine, in particular of a slitter-winder, which idler roll (10) has an outer shell surface (13). The brake (20) is located outside the outer shell surface (13) of the idler roll (10) in close vicinity of the idler roll (10) in a non-contacting position. The brake (20) has a permanent magnet (25), which is configured to be moved from non-braking position to a braking position and vice versa by an actuator or cylinder (35, 45).
