The present invention relates to an adhesive composition comprising, among others, (i) microfibrillated cellulose and (ii) a metal in oxidation state of II or greater. The present invention further relates to uses of such an adhesive composition and to products prepared with such an adhesive composition. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a process for making corrugated paperboards or cardboards, or solid paperboards or cardboards by using such an adhesive composition.

The single facer includes a load-bearing frame for housing a first corrugating roller and a second corrugating roller, meshing with each other and mounted in the load-bearing frame. The single facer further includes a pivoting structure, pivoted to the load-bearing frame about a pivoting axis and including two pivoting arms supporting two guide rollers of a continuous flexible member. Two actuators raise and lower the pivoting arms and the guide rollers. A hinge system allows to keep the pivoting structure cantilevered to replace the continuous flexible member.

The single facer includes a load-bearing frame for housing a first corrugating roller and a second corrugating roller, meshing with each other and mounted in the load-bearing frame. The single facer further includes a pivoting structure pivoted to the load-bearing frame about a pivoting axis and provided with a first guide roller and a second guide roller (35) pivotally supported for rotation on the pivoting structure. A continuous flexible member is guided about the guide rollers. Furthermore, provided for is a control system adapted to displace the pivoting structure to a working position, wherein the continuous flexible member is pressed against the second corrugating roller, and to a raised position, wherein the first guide roller and the second guide roller are spaced from the second corrugating roller.

“A controller of a corrugated fiberboard sheet manufacturing apparatus can execute a steady operation where a corrugating roll rotates at a first set speed, a deceleration operation where the corrugating roll is decelerated to a second set speed, and an acceleration operation where the corrugating roll is accelerated to a third set speed. In the steady operation, the controller set an on-off valve to a closed state for steam supply to a hollow portion at a first set pressure by a pressure adjusting valve. In the deceleration operation, the controller maintains states of the valves. In the acceleration operation, the controller switches the on-off valve to an open state, and adjusts the pressure adjusting valve for steam supply to the hollow portion at a second set pressure.”

Systems for providing efficient manufacturing of paper, sheet, and/or box products of varying size and structure, often with pre-applied print (“pre-print”), are provided herein. One or more controllers can be used to aggregate upcoming orders and information needed to complete the manufacturing process for the order. A controller enables a user to prepare control plans (e.g., reel maps, reel plans, etc.) for processing rolls of web product through the manufacturing process. Criteria filtering and/or various features enable generation of efficient and effective control plans for rolls of web product, including, in some cases, multiple orders. The control plan may include a set of instructions for operating one or more systems within the manufacturing process to form the desired finished paper-based product. In such a regard, efficient manufacturing of various paper-based products, including corrugated boxes, folded carton, labels, flexible paper, industrial bags, plates, cups, décor, and many others, can be achieved.

A network-based system and method for providing desired moisture set point values for individual papers lines based on the physical properties of each liner and the atmospheric conditions associated with a corrugator is disclosed. The desired moisture set point values are based on the hygroexpansivity of each individual paper liner. Once the moisture set point value has been determined, a conditioning apparatus adjusts a moisture value for each liner in order to tune the post-warp characteristics of the final corrugated product.

A corrugated cardboard pest repellent system for repelling and/or exterminating various pests around, within, or between layers of a corrugated cardboard construct while reducing the risk of contamination of goods or exposure by handlers. The corrugated cardboard pest repellent system generally includes one or more liners secured by an adhesive to one or more layers of a corrugated medium that has been treated by a pest repellent. The pest repellent is positioned on the underside of each crest of the one or more layers of the corrugated medium to prevent incursion of pests into the corrugated medium. Multiple layers may be stacked to form various constructs including a single face corrugated cardboard construct, a single wall corrugated cardboard construct, a double wall corrugated cardboard construct, and a triple wall corrugated cardboard construct. The resulting constructs may be utilized for various purposes, including forming various types of containers, padding, or liners.

A cardboard sheet manufacturing system includes an information editing unit storing production state information, operation state information, and warping state information as acquisition information in a storage unit, the information editing unit deleting, in a case where the stored acquisition information includes prescribed information to be deleted, the information to be deleted from the storage unit and outputting the acquisition information stored in the storage unit as editing information. The system also includes an editing information storage unit storing the editing information output from the information editing unit, a prediction model calculation unit calculating a prediction model of the warping state based on the editing information stored in the editing information storage unit; and a control table update unit updating a target value of a control value of a control element in the cardboard sheet manufacturing apparatus, based on the prediction model.
