A medium processing apparatus includes a conveyor, a liquid applier, a crimper, a movement assembly, and circuitry. The crimper presses and deforms at least a portion of a plurality of media including a medium to which liquid is applied by the applier, to bind the media. The circuitry causes the assembly to move the applier from a standby position to a position at which the applier faces a liquid application position on the medium before the medium is conveyed to a position at which the liquid is applied; causes the applier to apply the liquid when the medium is conveyed to the position at which the applier faces the liquid application position; causes the assembly to not move the applier to the standby position until application of the liquid to the media ends; and causes the assembly to move the applier to the standby position after the application ends.

An application mechanism is used to apply water to wet paper in a process for producing planar cushioning material and filler material made of paper having a spatial structure with embossing on each side. The water can be applied to the paper like ink, so as to keep it sufficiently moist for the embossing process. Likewise, it is possible to use ink to apply a two-dimensional imprint, whereby sufficient wetting can also take place, but at the same time an optical effect is achieved.

A sheet humidifying device, a method, and a cardboard sheet manufacturing device are provided with: a pre-heating roll that has an outer peripheral surface on which a corrugating medium is wrapped; and a humidified water jetting device that jets humidified water onto the outer peripheral surface of the pre-heating roll on which the corrugating medium has not been wrapped.

The invention relates to a method and system for improving the application of a coating on a Yankee cylinder (CR) in tissue paper machines. The invention implements a moisture-controlled environment (12) in an area of the exposed Yankee cylinder between the take-off position (TO) and ahead of the transfer position (TP) of the web, i.e. before and/or after the application of a coating with Performance Enhancing Material (PEM), wherein the cooling effect on the Yankee surface is increased by increased evaporation rate of water in the coating or water additionally applied onto the coating.

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.

A system and method for producing a board product made from paper products that have embossed medium that features an improved structural profile. The improved structural profile may include a triangular flute pattern wherein each flute may exhibit a first linear leg support and a second linear leg support that each support a center apex structure. The apex may have a substantially flat portion that is configured to engage a facing. As such, the board product may further include one or more facings that are adhesively coupled to the embossed medium. Further, the apex of each “triangle” may also have a groove or channel for receiving an adhesive in a continuous and uniform manner.

Disclosed herein is a method and apparatus for improving the heating capacity of steam-heated hot plates, and in particular, to steam-heated hot plates used in the corrugating industry. One or more separators and thermocompressors are added to the output of the hot plates to separate blow through steam from condensate and pressurize and inject the steam back into the hot plates.
