AirBond Heat Transfer System For Your Double Backer

AirBond Heat Transfer System For Your Double Backer

So What is AirBond? AirBond is the Only Heat Transfer System for your Double Backer accepted by the key International Corrugator Machinery Manufacturers. It replaces all Weight Rolls and existing Shoe Systems. AirBond was designed and developed not only to remove all the problems that Weight Rolls and existing Shoe Systems were giving, but to provide operator and production teams the best controls to accommodate all paper grades from micro flute lightweight 70gsm upto 440gsm double/ triple wall, giving the ability to increase production to meet the demands of today s customers.

Weight Rolls Do not provide the correct or sufficient even pressure to optimise the heat transfer process. De-lamination, Blistering, Wash Boarding and Warp problems occur due to poor and inconsistent heat transfer into the board, thus slowing down your production, increasing production costs with the additional problem of having to recycle more waste. Loose & out of balance Weight Rolls

Weight Rolls With Weight Rolls, edge crush is significant and this waste production is unacceptable. When running narrow width paper, weight rolls offer no adjustment, the same pressure is applied across the web, this in turn creates unnecessary wear to the belt and heating plates. Belt life is reduced and heating plates are expensive to replace.

AirBond Heat Transfer System With AirBond installed, production over the Double Backer can now run at it s optimum performance. Heat transfer takes place at the same time allowing moisture to be removed, producing the best quality board. All Heating Plate Pressures can be reduced, due to the AirBond Heat Transfer, giving you great savings on fuel consumption. Profit Cost Of Fuel

Operator HMI Controls

Operator HMI Controls Screen shows when the machine is stopped Screen shows when the machine is running narrow width paper Screen shows when the machine is running over X width Screen shows when the machine is running over Y width X and Y dimensions are machine width dependant

Operator HMI Controls The main operator page shows the pressures being applied at each section. This screen shows the system is configured for 3 heating section and a traction section. Three Heating and Traction Section Configuration. The system can be ran in Manual, semi automatic or fully automatic with remote computer job transfer. At order change the system will automatically change the settings to a job number which was created earlier. Every time the order is ran these settings can also be altered if need be.

Operator HMI Controls The steam page displays the actual steam pressure and temperature as a guide. The target pressure is what the operator changes when controlling the system. Three Heating Section Steam Control These pressures can be altered and saved whilst the machine is running. When the pressures are saved the next time the job number is ran it can automatically change the pressures. Making it easier for the operator to run the machine and giving more consistent board quality.

Operator HMI Controls Two Heating and Traction Section Configuration with Glue Gap Modulation. The main operator page shows the pressures being applied at each section. This screen shows the system is configured for 2 heating section and a traction section. As an option we can integrate the control of the doctor roll to glue roll gap. This will modulate with speed to the curve set by the operator. These settings can also be saved for recall at a later time.

Operator HMI Controls The glue curve page shows the set points entered by the operator. The red dot is the actual position of the glue gap relative to speed. Glue Curve Set Up Screen! These gaps can be altered and saved whilst the machine is running. When the gaps are saved the next time the job number is ran it will automatically change the glue curve. Making it easier for the operator to run the machine and giving more consistent board quality.

Feedback from Customer Following a further successful installation, we have worked with our customer to reduce steam and starch consumptions. Before the installation, the customer had three Heating Sections controlled by pressure on the heating section. In conjunction with the AirBond the pressure was reduced as follows: B Flute Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Before Installation After Installation 6 Bar 8 Bar 6 Bar 3 Bar 3 Bar 3 Bar E Flute Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Before Installation After Installation 3 Bar 4 Bar 5 Bar 2 Bar 2 Bar 3 Bar

Feedback from Customer After many years of difficult production at this customers factory, the customer replaced part of his existing shoe system with 5 AirBond Modules. After the installation of AirBond, the long standing Warp problems disappeared. Production speed increased straight away by 150 feet / Min (45M / Min)

What Does AirBond mean to You Either by installing a full system or replacing sections of existing heat transfer systems, AirBond is going to give you the following immediate results / benefits: Optimum Control Of Heat Transfer from your Double Backer Reduced Operating Costs through reduction in both energy and starch. Increased Board Quality and Reduction in Waste Produced. Higher Performance from Lighter Weight Papers. Reduced length Double Facers. Immediate conversion capability, Can Be Fitted to All Double Backers Greater efficiency when running all flute and grade combinations. Greatly reduced maintenance. Only High Grade Materials are used. 100% Backup Service and Support from Production and Field Service Engineers of JKSP Services with many Years of Experience in Corrugating, Converting and Materials Handling Systems Worldwide. The shortest Return on Investment (ROI) of any system offered.
