What Is a Conical Refiner?
A Conical Refiner is a crucial piece of equipment used in the papermaking industry during the stock preparation stage. Its primary function is to refine pulp, which is a mixture of fibers and water, to improve the quality and strength of the resulting paper.
The Conical Refiner gets its name from its distinctive conical shape, which plays a vital role in its operation. Inside the refiner, there are two cones positioned with their apexes facing each other. These cones are equipped with refining elements, which can vary in design and configuration depending on the specific requirements of the papermaking process.
Working and Application of Conical Refiner
During operation, the pulp mixture is fed into the space between the cones, where it undergoes refining. As the pulp passes through the narrow gap between the cones, it experiences intense mechanical forces exerted by the refining cones.
The Parason Confiner offers several advantages over other refining equipment, including:
- Gentle Fiber Treatment: The conical shape allows for gentle yet effective treatment of fibers, minimizing fiber damage while achieving desired refining outcomes with higher CEL and lower SEL.
- Uniform Refining: The refining elements inside the refiner ensure uniform refining across the pulp mixture, leading to consistent quality in the resulting paper.
- Energy Efficiency: Conical Refiners are designed to operate efficiently, consuming less energy compared to alternative refining methods.
- Compact Design: Conical Refiners are often designed to be compact, saving valuable floor space in the paper mill.
