    • Factors that control run-ahead on printing presses 

      Hamel, J.; Menard, A.; McDonald, D. (Oklahoma State University, 1999-06)
      Run-ahead is a problem that occurs on printing presses where the paper rolls are braked by metallic bands applied to their periphery. Run-ahead occurs when the web in contact with the band decelerates faster than the roll, ...
    • Fast winder change with reduced influence on film tension 

      Schuster, Stefan; Oedl, Gunter (Oklahoma State University, 2015-06)
      For a 2 station turret winder it is shown that the film length increases at winder change (turret rotation, cutting arm movement und contact roller movement). It is shown how this change in length must create a change of ...
    • Film surface considerations for enhanced winding of thin films 

      Forrest, A. W., Jr.; Anderson, V. L. (Oklahoma State University, 1997-06)
      The primary defect for thin films ( < 25μm ) consists of sinusoidal ridges that run around the wound roll of film. Previous work has shown that these defects are buckles caused by compressive stresses in the transverse ...

      Kandadai, B. K.; Good, J. K. (Oklahoma State University, 2009-06)
      Wound-on-Tension (WOT) is the tension in the outermost layer of a winding roll that is created due to the incoming web tension and the tension induced by the nip roller called Nip-Induced-Tension (NIT). This paper presents ...

    • Flutter mechanism of sheet 

      Watanabe, Y.; Suzuki, S.; Sueoka, Y.; Kunimaru, H. (Oklahoma State University, 1991-05)
      Basic study has been conducted on sheet flutter which becomes an obstacle to the operation of printing machines and paper making machines in higher speed. Following three topics are presented in this paper.
    • Free vibration analysis of thin, tensioned, helically wrapped webs using Mindlin-Reissner finite element method 

      Lopez, Ernesto; Masters, James; Muftu, Sinan (Oklahoma State University, 2007-06)
      Free vibration analysis of a thin tensioned web, wrapped around a reverser was studied. The effect of helix angle was considered. The eigen-problem was formed using finite elements and solved numerically. Design parameters ...
    • Friction characteristics between thin plastic film and steel roller 

      Hashimoto, Hiromu; Sunami, Yuta (Oklahoma State University, 2015-06)
      To establish the Roll-to-Roll Printed Electronics, which can be applied to manufacture the high functional thin film based devices, it is needed to combine the Roll-to- Roll transportation system and coating technology ...
    • From predictive models to profitability in the web-handling industry 

      Hakiel, Z. (Oklahoma State University, 1995-06)
      This paper attempts to put some of the work being done by researchers in the web-handling field, including some of the papers to be presented at this conference, into a broader business context. Various ways of utilizing ...
    • Fully nonlinear solution to the stresses inside wound rolls 

      Forrest, A. W., Jr. (Oklahoma State University, 1999-06)
      The Hakiel approach has been the accepted method for calculating stresses in wound rolls. It determines the stress in rolls by summing the stress induced by wraps of film applied to the roll surface. This approach is called ...
    • Fully R2R gravure printed smart tags and related web handling challenges 

      Cho, Gyoujin (Oklahoma State University, 2013-06)
      Although a smart tag which can communicate with a smart phone via NFC (Near Field Communication) has been considered as a core tool for bringing up the ubiquitous society, the difficulties in integrating 13.56 MHz RFID ...
    • Future online concept for roll and sheet production in papermaking technology and process requirements for web handling 

      Welp, E. G. (Oklahoma State University, 2003-06)
      The process of on-line converting is discussed as a chance to increase the productivity and quality in roll and sheet converting in paper mills. In this article the technical and process related prospects will be presented ...
    • Gauge optimization of the reference tension and nip-load in winding systems using wound internal stresses calculation 

      Knittel, Dominique; Bencheikh, Issam; Boutaous, M'hamed; Bourgin, Patrick (Oklahoma State University, 2013-06)
      In the winding process, the quality of the roll is directly related to its stress state. The winding tension and nip-load are the most significant parameters which play an important role in the stresses generated within a ...

      Muftu, Sinan; Yang, Hankang (Oklahoma State University, 2013-06)
      A flexible web unavoidably deviates from its prescribed (linear) path during processing. The lateral web dynamics can be caused by tilt of rollers, web defects, off axis motion of the reels and other factors. In this work ...
    • Gentle wavy defects in knurled wound rolls
