Measurement, Analysis and Reduction of Paper Machine Vibrations

Paper machines are often negatively affected by vibrations, which frequently leads to lower paper quality (e.g. barring) and reduced production output.

These vibrations are mostly caused by rotating rollers or wires in combination with the interactions of individual machine components. Amplified by structural resonances (e.g. machine frames interacting with the foundation), this can lead to a vibration level that is no longer acceptable.

Our service portfolio in the area of paper machines:

Root cause analysis and balancing (of coupled rotors)
Vibration measurement to assess the current condition (e.g. before modernization)
Analysis of vibration reduction concepts on a computational model
Development and implementation of vibration reduction concepts
Acceptance measurements

Example of dominant excitation of guide rollers at higher frequencies
