Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of corrugated paper production, and in particular relates to a continuous production process of multi-pit corrugated paper. Background Art

[0002] Corrugated paper is a commonly used packaging material, widely used in the packaging and transportation of various commodities. However, traditional processes often struggle to achieve continuous production efficiency. The supply of raw paper and the connection between various production links are not smooth, resulting in frequent shutdowns and restarts, which greatly reduces production efficiency. Traditional processes also lack effective quality control methods. Key quality parameters such as thickness, moisture content, and adhesive strength of corrugated paper cannot be monitored and precisely controlled in real time, resulting in inconsistent product quality and difficulty meeting the needs of the high-end packaging market. Therefore, the development of an efficient, stable, and quality-controlled continuous production process for multi-pit corrugated paper is of great practical significance. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a continuous production process for multi-pit corrugated paper, which adopts a full-process continuous production mode, realizes seamless connection of equipment through a multi-roll base paper automatic paper feeding system and an intelligent PLC control system, shortens the production cycle and improves production capacity.

[0004] The technical solutions adopted by the present invention are as follows:

[0005] A continuous production process for multi-corrugated paper, characterized in that the process includes: base paper preparation, corrugation forming, gluing, laminating, drying, cutting and stacking; specifically includes the following steps:

[0006] Step 1: Prepare the base paper

[0007] According to the purpose and quality requirements of multi-corrugated paper, choose appropriate face paper, lining paper, core paper and corrugated base paper;

[0008] The base paper is installed on a base paper rack, which can accommodate multiple base paper rolls at the same time, and a tension control system is used to ensure that the base paper maintains appropriate tension during transportation;

[0009] Step 2: Corrugated Forming

[0010] The core paper is processed into a corrugated shape by a single-face corrugating machine, which includes upper and lower corrugating rollers, a pressure roller and a glue coating device. The core paper is pressed into a corrugated shape between the heated corrugating rollers and glue is coated on the flute peaks;

[0011] For multi-corrugated paper, multiple single-faced corrugated papers are combined through a laminating machine;

[0012] Step 3: Glue

[0013] Using special corrugated paper glue, the glue is evenly applied to the flutes of the corrugated paper or the surface of the paper through a gluing device, and the gluing device is set on the single-face corrugating machine and the laminating machine;

[0014] Step 4: Fit

[0015] The glued single-sided corrugated paper is laminated with the face paper or lining paper on a laminating machine, which presses the paper and corrugated paper tightly together through a pressure roller.

[0016] For multi-corrugated paper, multiple laminating operations are performed to laminate different layers of corrugated paper and paper together in sequence.

[0017] Step 5: Drying

[0018] The laminated corrugated cardboard is processed in a segmented temperature-controlled drying tunnel, with the temperature in the front section at 100-110°C and the temperature in the back section at 80-90°C, and then naturally cooled to a moisture content of 8-10%.

[0019] Step 6: Cutting and stacking

[0020] The continuously produced corrugated paper is cut horizontally into appropriate lengths according to the order requirements by a cross-cutting machine controlled by a computer;

[0021] The corrugated paper is cut longitudinally by a slitting machine into the required width. The blade of the slitting machine can be adjusted as needed;

[0022] The cut corrugated paper is stacked by a stacking machine;

[0023] Furthermore, an automated control system is used to centrally control and coordinate the operation of the base paper rack, single-face corrugated machine, laminating machine, drying tunnel and cutting machine.

[0024] Furthermore, the single-sided corrugated machine is equipped with A / B / C pit combination corrugated rollers, the upper roller temperature is 180-200°C, the lower roller temperature is 160-180°C, and the coating is 20-22% solid content corn starch glue (35-45g / m 2 ).

[0025] Furthermore, the specific process of lamination in step 4 is as follows:

[0026] The first layer of lamination: single-faced corrugated cardboard (A flute) and core paper are laminated by glue roller;

[0027] The second layer of lamination: superimpose B-flute or C-flute single-faced cardboard to form an AB or ABC type multi-pit structure.

[0028] Furthermore, the laminating machine accelerates the curing of the glue through a high-frequency preheater (120-140° C.), the laminating pressure is 300-500 kPa, and the laminating residence time is 30-60 s.

[0029] Furthermore, the humidity in the drying tunnel is ≤15%, and the segment temperature is dynamically adjusted by PLC.

[0030] Furthermore, the online detection step is also included:

[0031] The laser sensor monitors the corrugated height in real time and triggers an alarm when the deviation exceeds ±0.1mm;

[0032] The uniformity of the glue line is detected by an infrared imager, and the glue amount is automatically adjusted when the glue coverage is less than 90%.

[0033] The technical effects achieved by the present invention are:

[0034] The process of the present invention realizes continuous and uninterrupted operation from base paper preparation to cutting and stacking. The base paper rack can simultaneously accommodate multiple base paper rolls and continuously supply paper. The various production equipment are closely connected, avoiding frequent shutdown and startup, greatly shortening the production cycle, and increasing the output per unit time. The automated control system is used to centrally control and coordinate the operation of the base paper rack, single-face corrugated machine, laminating machine, drying tunnel, cutting machine and other equipment, reducing the time and errors of manual operation. The production speed and process parameters can be automatically adjusted according to preset parameters to achieve fast and efficient production.

[0035] The present invention configures the single-face corrugated machine with A / B / C pit combined corrugated rollers, accurately controls the temperature of the combined corrugated rollers, and ensures the quality of corrugated forming. The laminating machine accelerates the curing of glue through a high-frequency preheater, ensuring the close fitting of paper and corrugated paper. At the same time, the drying tunnel adopts segmented temperature control and controls the humidity at ≤15%. The segmented temperature is dynamically adjusted by PLC to ensure that the moisture content of the corrugated paper is stable at 8-10%, thereby ensuring the stability and consistency of product quality. Energy can be reasonably allocated according to the drying requirements of the corrugated paper, avoiding excessive energy consumption. At the same time, the natural air cooling method further reduces energy costs. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
