The air cushioned headbox is crucial for paper production as it disperses fibers effectively, prevents fiber precipitation and re-flocculation, and ensures an even distribution of paper stock along the machine.
The air cushioned headbox comes in two models: Model 3800mm with a net paper width of 3800mm and Model 4200mm with a net paper width of 4200mm.
The working speed for both the Model 3800 and Model 4200 headboxes is between 280 to 480 meters per minute.
The high turbulence generated by the headbox creates micro-motions that help in effectively dispersing fibers, which increases the strength and quality of the paper sheet.
The diameter of the holyroll for both the Model 3800 and Model 4200 headboxes is Φ219 mm.
The headbox utilizes a square cone pipe cloth slurry distribution system combined with a step diffuser for optimal performance.
As the first component in the paper production process, the headbox plays a vital role in ensuring the proper formation and quality of the paper by controlling the distribution of the slurry.
The headbox is designed to fit specific paper machine configurations, so compatibility with your existing equipment should be confirmed before installation.
The outline size of the Model 3800 headbox is 5600 mm (L) x 2450 mm (W) x 1350 mm (H).
The outline size of the Model 4200 headbox is 6000 mm (L) x 2450 mm (W) x 1350 mm (H).
Yes, the air cushioned headbox can be arranged for both left and right-hand configurations.
Key features include effective fiber dispersion, high turbulence for improved paper strength, even slurry distribution, and compatibility with various paper machine setups.
Regular inspections and cleaning of the headbox components are recommended to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
Yes, by ensuring even distribution of the pulp and maintaining stable shotcrete, the headbox can significantly enhance production efficiency.
The headbox is typically constructed from high-quality materials designed to withstand the pressures and conditions of paper production.
