A major revolution in the tissue industry: The new GALENO creping doctor holder stops vibration at the creping blade – and thus raises productivity and improves Yankee safety. How does that work? Very simple, with unique Clouth Sprenger innovative technology.

Into the future using customized solutions – Prevent chatter

Our Research and Development Department got to the bottom of quality problems and expensive downtime in tissue production. Following research into vibration around the creping process, a significant cause was traced and the idea for the GALENO was born. Simply: the GALENO prevents the creping blade vibrating. This is achieved as the creping blade is held inside the holder and fixed using a clamp hose to prevent transmission of vibration. A further damping element at the upper end of the holder prevents vibration along the entire length of the creping blade.

Raise your productivity. Protect your Yankee.

A great feature of the GALENO is the option to adjust the operating angle during running, without having to stop the machine or change blades. There is an integrated water circuit which prevents thermal deflection of the doctor beam, as it effectively counteracts the large differences in temperature between the Yankee surface and the environment. Safer and easier tissue production – with the Clouth Sprenger GALENO creping doctor system.

One solution, many advantges:

  • durable: Prevent chattermarks and expensive Yankee regrinds
  • cost efficient: low-maintenance creping technology
  • raise productivity: minimise machine downtime
  • flexible: adapt the level of the GALENO doctor system automation to your requirements

Features

No distortion of the doctor beam caused by temperature-related deflection

The temperature of the doctor beam is equalised, so avoiding any deflection due to temperature differences in different areas of the tissue machine.


Blade damping in the holder

By clamping the creping blade in the holder using an innovative pneumatically pre-stressed hose, effective vibration damping is achieved where it matters most: directly at the blade.


Damping the blade close to the Yankee

The vulkollan ‘shoe’ has maximum contact with the creping blade, damping vibration at the Yankee.


Profiling the doctor blade

The backing blade is held in position by the individual profiling fingers and can be individually adjusted over the entire width of the doctor, enabling the creping blade to be perfectly profiled to the Yankee surface.

GALENO in action

Design

  • The mounting beam of the creping holder consists of a double pipe
  • Vulkollan profile with metal inlay as damping-element at the Yankee
  • Pneumatically pre-stressed hose as damping-element in the holder
