The invention relates to a method for forming a three-layer board web, preferably a folding box board (FBB) or a solid bleached (sulfate) board (SBS), in a forming section (300) comprising a multilayer headbox (100) and a forming unit (200). In the method the layers of the three-layer board web are first formed of pulp suspension in the multilayer headbox (100) and fed to only one forming unit (200), a gap former where the pulp suspension from the multilayer headbox is fed to a gap between lower and upper wires for water removal and for joining the layers of the three-layer board web and where water is first removed by a non-pulsating forming shoe (37, 39).

A method for producing a paper roll by conveying a first smooth ply between an upper embossing roll with first projections defining a decorative motif, and a glue distribution or cliché roll; maintaining the cliché roll side by side to the upper embossing roll, the first ply interposed between the upper embossing roll and the cliché roll and subjected to incisions and to glue deposits at the first projections on one side of the first ply facing towards the upper embossing roll and on the opposite side of the first ply facing towards the cliché roll; conveying a second ply between the upper embossing roll and a coupling or marriage roll; maintaining the marriage roll side by side to the upper embossing roll by exerting a coupling pressure to perform the final coupling between the first ply and the second ply at the glue deposits forming a multilayer paper.

Apparatus (1) and method for producing absorbent structures with absorbent layers with channel(s) without absorbent material, using a first moving endless surface (20) with specific raised strip(s) (25) and a second moving endless surface (30) with specific mating strip(s) (31).

A method for creping paper includes applying an adhesive composition to an outer surface of a creping cylinder (Yankee cylinder) to form an adhesive coating, contacting paper with the adhesive coating, removing the paper and adhesive coating from the creping cylinder, and determining a quality of the adhesive coating. Determining the quality of the adhesive coating may include measuring a degree of cross-linking of the adhesive polymer, a concentration of the adhesive polymer in the adhesive coating, a water content of the adhesive coating, an ash content of the adhesive coating, or combinations thereof. Determining the quality of the adhesive coating may also include determining a thickness of the adhesive coating by measuring light absorbed by the coating and calculating the thickness using Beer's Law. Systems and apparatuses for determining the quality of the adhesive coating and for creping paper are also disclosed.
