Air Spring
The air spring is located in different areas of the paper production process. Air springs consist of a flexible elastomer rubber body with nylon fabric reinforcement, and rustproof plates with an air inlet and mounting blind nuts. The rubber bellows can be used both as vibration isolators and rubber actuators. The air springs absorb up to 99% of the unwanted vibrations avoiding further damages to the machines and metallic structures. At the same time, they reduce noise level.
Application
The Air springs are applied in different kind of applications in paper mills, where we can see the different functions that the air actuator provides in different parts of the paper manufacturing process:
1.Air spring used as an edge control system to align the bandage that carries the paper.
2.Tenses the web that carries out the paper.
3.Used as a press, to extract the humidity from the paper with the rollers located in the machine.
