A method and apparatus for removing particles, such as dust, generated by a moving web is disclosed. A dust control platform is positioned adjacent to a traversing web to catch the particles generated by the web. The particles pass through one or more apertures defined by an accumulation surface. The particles pass through the accumulation surface and into an accumulation chamber. The accumulation chamber may include a sweeping device or other device that may be used to transfer the accumulated particles to a collection chamber. The collection chamber is connected to a vacuum source. Vacuum is applied to the collection chamber by the vacuum source such that the particles are removed from the collection chamber.

An apparatus for adjusting a scraper bar in a line for producing a paper web, having a wire, assigned to which are scraper bars oriented transversely to its direction of movement and situated at a distance from one another. The scraper bar is supported by a support bar and is adjustable with respect to the support bar and with respect to the wire by means of a positioning device. The scraper bar and the support bar are coupled together by way of links that are mounted thereon. The distance or the angular position of the scraper bar with respect to the support bar and thus with respect to the wire is adjustable by a displacement of the scraper bar with respect to the support bar.
