Claims
- 1. A process for applying an application medium onto a material web, in an apparatus having a first twin wire zone and a second twin wire zone, the process comprising:forming the material web in the first twin wire zone between a first opposing pair of driven endless wires; transferring the material web to the second twin wire zone between a second opposing pair of driven endless wires; and applying the application medium onto the material web through at least one of said second opposing pair of driven endless wires.
- 2. The process according to claim 1, wherein said applying comprises applying the application medium onto the material web through at least one of said second opposing pair of driven endless wires having a different, finer mesh structure than said first opposing pair of driven endless wires.
- 3. The process according to claim 1, wherein said material web has two sides, and wherein said applying comprises applying the application medium to only one side of the material web through at least one of said second opposing pair of driven endless wires.
- 4. The process according to claim 1, wherein said material web has two sides, and wherein said applying comprises applying the application medium to both sides of the material web through both of said second opposing pair of driven endless wires.
- 5. The process according to claim 1,wherein said applying comprises applying the application medium onto a first side of the material web through at least one of said second opposing pair of driven endless wires, and further comprising: draining via suction on a second side of the material web opposite said first side of the material web.
- 6. The process according to claim 5, further comprising, after said draining:applying additional application medium to said second side of the material web through a remaining one of said second opposing pair of driven endless wires; and draining via suction on said first side of the material web.
- 7. The process according to claim 5, further comprising, after said draining:again draining via suction on said second side of the material web.
- 8. A process for forming a material web and applying an application medium onto the material web, in an apparatus having at least one twin wire zone, the process comprising:introducing a fibrous suspension into the at least one twin wire zone between at least one opposing pair of driven endless wires; draining the material web in said at least one twin wire zone to form the material web from the fibrous suspension; applying the application medium onto the material web on a first side of said material web; draining the application medium from the material web from a second side of said material web opposite said first side; applying the application medium onto the material web on said second side of the material web; and draining the application medium from the material web from said first side of said material web; wherein at least one of (1) the applying on the first side and draining from the second side of the material web, and (2) the applying on the second side and draining from the first side of the material web, occurs directly opposite from each other with respect to positioning along the at least one twin wire zone.
- 9. The process according to claim 8, whereinall of said applying and said draining are performed in order in alternate positions along said at least one twin wire zone.
- 10. The process according to claim 8, whereinsaid applying the application medium onto the material web on said first side of said material web and said draining the application medium from the material web from said second side of said material web are performed from positions directly opposite one another across said at least one twin wire zone, and said applying the application medium onto the material web on said second side of said material web and said draining the application medium from the material web from said first side of said material web are performed from positions directly opposite one another across said at least one twin wire zone.
- 11. A paper machine, comprising:a first twin wire zone, having a first opposing pair of driven endless wires, that circulates and bears a material web; a second twin wire zone, having a second opposing pair of driven endless wires, that circulates in the same direction as said first twin wire zone and accepts said material web from said first twin wire zone, said second twin wire zone provided downstream in the direction of circulation from said first twin wire zone; and at least one application device along said second twin wire zone for applying an application medium onto at least one side of the material web through at least one of said second opposing pair of driven endless wires.
- 12. The paper machine according to claim 11, whereinsaid at least one of said second opposing pair of driven endless wires, through which the application medium is applied, has a different, finer mesh structure than said first opposing pair of driven endless wires.
- 13. The paper machine according to claim 12, wherein both of said second opposing pair of driven endless wires have the same mesh structure as one another.
- 14. The paper machine according to claim 11, further comprising:at least one drainage device that drains the application medium applied onto said material web, said at least one drainage device being disposed along said second twin wire zone.
- 15. The paper machine according to claim 14, whereinsaid at least one drainage device and said at least one application device are arranged in alternate positions along said second twin wire zone.
- 16. The paper machine according to claim 14, whereinsaid at least one drainage device and said at least one application device are arranged in positions opposing one another across said second twin wire zone.
- 17. The paper machine according to claim 11, further comprising:at least two drainage devices that drain the application medium applied onto said material web, said at least two drainage devices being disposed along said second twin wire zone.
- 18. The paper machine according to claim 11, wherein each of said second opposing pair of driven endless wires comprises a porous belt.
- 19. The paper machine according to claim 11, further comprising:at least one application device along said first twin wire zone for applying an application medium onto at least one side of the material web through at least one of said first opposing pair of driven endless wires; and at least one drainage device that drains application medium applied onto the material web, said at least one drainage device being disposed along said first twin wire zone.
- 20. A paper machine, comprising:a twin wire zone, having a first driven endless wire and a second driven endless wire opposing said first driven endless wire, said twin wire zone circulating and bearing a material web; a first application device along said twin wire zone that applies an application medium onto a first side of the material web through said first driven endless wire; a first drainage device that drains the application medium applied onto said material web, said first drainage device draining the application medium, through said second driven endless wire, from a second side of said material web opposite said first side; a second application device along said twin wire zone that applies the application medium onto the second side of the material web through said second driven endless wire; and a second drainage device along said twin wire zone that drains the application medium applied onto the material web, said second drainage device draining the application medium, through said first driven endless wire, from the first side of the material web; wherein at least one of (1) said first application device and said first drainage device, and (2) said second application device and said second drainage device, are arranged directly opposite each other.
- 21. The paper machine according to claim 20, whereinsaid first application device, said first drainage device, said second application device, and said second drainage device are arranged in order in alternate positions along said twin wire zone.
- 22. The paper machine according to claim 20, whereinsaid first application device and said first drainage device are arranged in positions directly opposing one another across said twin wire zone, and said second application device and said second drainage device are arranged in positions directly opposing one another across said twin wire zone.
