DATA SHEET PAPER AND DRYING MACHINES DRYER SECTION COMPONENTS September 2, 1994 POSI-EYE SHEET DETECTOR DESCRIPTION The operation of the Posi-Eye Sheet Detector is based on intensity changes of reflected light (color range of paper and fabrics must be taken into consideration). It measures the sheet on the fabric or roll surface and does not require an open draw or a sensor measuring through the sheet. By help of a sheet detector it is now possible to detect sheet breaks and blow down the sheet on fast machines. ‘The Posi-Eye Sheet Detector is suitable for all paper machines. I can be located in any position. This allows, for example, the sheet to be run into the pulper after the 4th press during a break. The sheet can also be blown down before the inverted dryer group and before the double felted group. ADVANTAGES * Unique equipment on the market: positioning does not require open draws. * Insensitive to dirt and built-up: suitable for dusty, damp and hot locations: loose pieces of paper for example do not disturb its operation, and paper wads cannot be formed in dryer section, * Reliable operation, does not give false indications, * Mechanically strong.

September 7, 1994 MILLING OF BASE PLATES DESCRIPTION The paper machine foundation has influence on the mechanical operation of the machine and through this on the maintenance cost as well as on the paper quality. A good foundation requires flat base plates. Alterations in the foundation compared to the original situation during mounting increase dynamic vibration of the machine and change geometrical position on structures. Level differences and tilting can be repaired in a rebuild without removing the paltes by machining, provided that the paltes are properly secured. On- site machining results in better accurcy than the conventional installation accuracy of machined plates. Returning the flatness of the foundation to within tolerance eliminates geometric deviations and dampens vibration, which reduces oil leaks and increases the service life of bearing and gears. Tilt problems of dryers are also eliminated and the moisture profile improves. ADVANTAGES * Minimized foundation-based vibration, fewer oil leaks and increased bearing service life. * Improved moisture profile (uniform condensate layer), * Fast machining method saves time in rebuild or repai be reused. * Unnecessary dismounting and remounting of base plates as well as regrouting can be avoided.
