SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING A FACING FOR A BOARD PRODUCT WITH STRATEGICALLY PLACED SCORES
A system and method for producing a board product made from paper products that have a pre-scored facing in addition to a medium (sometimes called fluting). Conventional corrugated board may feature a cross-corrugated medium and one or more facing that have no score lines that are impressed (at least prior to assembly with the corrugated medium). Such a conventional board product may be inferior because any score lines that are impressed will damage the underlying corrugated medium in some manner. A breakdown in the strength of the underlying medium leads to poor precision when the eventual board product is scored, cut, and folded. A lack of precision in folding a board product leads to gap variation and fishtailing as any articulated portion of the board product may not maintain a precise plane of articulation when folded.
Method and Device for Controlling the Traction of Corrugated Board in the Double Facer of a Production Line
The method includes the step of pulling the corrugated board along hot plates by means of an upper flexible member and a lower flexible member driven by two electric motors. By at least one electric parameter of the drive motor of the lower flexible member, the correct operation of the traction device and in particular the correct ratio of the linear feeding speeds of the two flexible members is checked. The method provides an iterative check of the controlled electric parameter and a possible correction of the speed of the flexible members to maintain the desired speed ratio.

CORRUGATED CARDBOARD SHEET MANUFACTURING SYSTEM
The corrugated cardboard sheet manufacturing system including a production state information acquisition device; a control value information acquisition device for acquiring control value information of a control element of a corrugated cardboard sheet manufacturing apparatus exerting an influence on the warp of a corrugated cardboard sheet; a warp information acquisition device for acquiring information of a warp amount of the corrugated cardboard sheet; a storage device for storing a performance data set including at least production state information, the control value information, and the warp information; a pre-control table storing a standard control value of the control element set in accordance with a production state; a correction table for correcting the standard control value to set an initial control value; an update device for updating the correction table by reflecting the performance data set; and control device for performing feedforward control of the control element using the initial control value.
Device for storing and removing cardboard for a bridge in a corrugated cardboard production line
A device for cardboard storage and removal for a bridge in a corrugated cardboard production line includes a bridge over which a conveyor system for conveying the single-sided laminated corrugated cardboard web is arranged. The exit end of the conveyor system for conveying the single-sided laminated corrugated cardboard web is provided with a clamping and cutting unit and a movable cardboard storage carriage unit is provided under the conveyor system for conveying the single-sided laminated corrugated cardboard web, under which conveyor system a conveyor belt system is provided in the bridge, and in the bridge an opening is provided, under which a waste cardboard collecting carriage is provided. The movable cardboard storage carriage unit stores the cardboard by means of cardboard storage rolls, which retain the single-sided laminated corrugated cardboard web flat on the bridge. In the event that a splicing defect is detected, the defective piece is cut out by the clamping and cutting unit and ejected by the conveyor belt system to the waste cardboard collecting carriage through the opening. Hence, it follows that productivity is improved.
Single facer for producing single face corrugated paperboard, and related method
A single facer including a first corrugating roller with a first rotation axis and a second corrugating roller with a second rotation axis. The two corrugating rollers form a corrugating nip, through which a paper sheet passes. The single facer also includes a pressing member, co-acting with the second corrugating roller and forming a pressure nip therewith, as well as a glue applicator co-acting with the second corrugating roller. With the second corrugating roller a suction box is associated, extending approximately parallel to the second rotation axis of the second corrugating roller and defining a suction area around the second corrugating roller. A series of laminar members, each of which is inserted in a respective one of the annular grooves of the second corrugating roller, are arranged between the pressing member and the first corrugating roller and extend in the respective annular grooves towards the suction box.
CORRUGATED BOARD PLANT
A corrugated board plant includes a corrugated board production assembly for producing a double-face laminated web of corrugated board, and at least one cutting assembly arranged downstream of the corrugated board production assembly, which has a cross-cutting device for producing sheets from the double-face web of corrugated board, and is capable of producing at least one identification sheet from the double-face laminated web of corrugated board, which is different from the sheets. The corrugated board plant further has a stack depositing area arranged downstream of the cutting assembly to stack the sheets and the at least one identification sheet in such a way as to form a stack, which is identifiable by means of the at least one identification sheet, in particular for further processing.
Plant and method for producing corrugated cardboard with gluing defect detector
The plant includes a single facer for the production of a corrugated board. Video cameras detect any gluing defects or other defects of the corrugated cardboard. An image processing unit and a central control unit provide information about the detected defects and can act on one or more operating parameters of the plant.
CORRUGATING ROLL UNIT CONVEYANCE APPARATUS AND APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR REPLACING CORRUGATING ROLL UNIT
A corrugating roll unit conveyance apparatus includes a mounting base having a first accommodation part for accommodating a corrugating roll unit to be removed and a second accommodation part for accommodating a corrugating roll unit to be installed; and a movement device for moving the mounting base to a first replacement position at which the first accommodation part faces the existing corrugating roll unit, a second replacement position at which the second accommodation part faces a space from which the existing corrugating roll unit has been removed, and a retracted position separated from the first replacement position and the second replacement position.
Method for producing corrugated board products having an oblique flute profile
The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for the production of a corrugated cardboard product. The apparatus comprises a first single facer and a second single facer which are provided in each case with a press-down belt and with a first and a second grooving roller respectively. The first and the second grooving roller are designed for embossing a wave profile onto a first and a second paper web respectively. The press-down belts, together with the respective grooving rollers, for connecting the first and the second paper webs in each case to a non-corrugated web for the production of a first and a second single-flute corrugated cardboard web respectively. The first single facer is equipped with a first oblique guide roller, the axis of rotation of which is inclined at a vertical inclination angle between side margins of the first paper web.
