Creating a stable tissue roll
In the reel section of a tissue machine, the paper web is guided through various components, including the reel drum, reel spools, and reel spool handling system. These components work together to ensure precise winding, tension control, and uniform edge alignment, resulting in a well-formed and stable tissue reel.
One of the key techniques to achieve optimal roll structure is proper tension control. Maintaining the right tension throughout the winding process helps in creating uniform and well-formed rolls. This can be achieved by utilizing advanced control systems that monitor and adjust tension levels in real-time.
