Improved apparatus and methods of operating a turn up apparatus on a paper machine to improve the performance of a paper machine turn up process is presented. The apparatus may include a cross track with an internal slot for a paperband to move upon and affixed a surface that is proximate to the first internal slot. The first apron may lie across a surface above a location for the paperband and interact with the paperband when the paperband is pulled out of the apparatus during a turn-up operation. An apron tensioning device may provide an additional force against an edge of a surface of the apron. A curved track may hold the paperband at an angle to an axis of the cross track, and the paperband feeding device may advance the paperband during a portion of a turn-up operation.

TURN-UP PAPERBAND GUIDE WITH VARIABLE TENSION CONTROL
Improved apparatus and methods of operating turn-up apparatus on a paper machine to improve performance of a paper machine turn-up process via the inclusion of the ability to vary an amount of tension on a paperband being deployed during a turn-up procedure. A cross track may have a first internal slot for the paperband to move upon and a second slot to support a first adjustable track top holder. The first adjustable track top holder holds a first top tension band in a fixed position relative to an underlying first bottom tension band.
Apparatus for variable width turn-up procedures on a paper processing machine. The apparatus may include a turn-up tape dispenser fixedly attached to a proximal end of a transverse track and movable with the transverse track along the first linear bearing. A movable turn-up tape exit point may be mounted to a second linear bearing. The second linear bearing may be independent of the transverse track or attached to the transverse track. The apparatus may include a brake operable to secure the transverse track in a position relative to the surface of the first spool. Furthermore, the apparatus may include a movable track curve that allows a placement of the track curve to be moved.
Apparatus and methods for improved turn-up procedures on a paper making machine that include a flexible portion of a turn-up tape track and movement of a track curve portion to avoid interference with threading a paper web to a spool. A transverse turn-up tape track may be extended across a first spool to a track curve and the track curve may be set at a lower position that does not interfere with a paper web during threading, and subsequently repositioned to a position from which a turn-up position may be performed. The paper web threading leader may continue to be wound around the first spool until a full width of the paper web has been spooled onto the first spool. The transverse turn-up tape track may be maintained essentially stationary relative to the first spool.

High speed paper web turn-up system with a prepared length paper band coil
An improved paper band delivery assembly for reliable high speed delivery of a turn-up paper band across a moving web of paper being wound onto a spool. The turn-up paper band is made ready for a turn up procedure by coiling a predetermined length of paper band suitable for a particular machine and retaining the coiled paper band in a reservoir pending deployment across a spool for a turn up procedure. The paper band may be coiled via manual operation or via automated operation. Coiling apparatus may be modularly replaced on a paper making machine. The coiled paper band may be supported within the reservoir on rollers, pins, or other items conducive to fast and reliable uncoiling.
Methods and apparatus for reducing condensation in a track. An electric device continuously heating compressed air to a regulated temperature is mounted adjacent to a portion of a track associated with a tape delivery assembly. A flexible hose assists with regulating the air flow to expel and repel debris. Tee fittings are used to provide extra flexibility to adapt to various pipe sizes.

A single-use box containing a paper band coil. Previously known methods of feeding a paper band coil into turn-up machines are spatially inefficient and may cause significant problems in application. In contrast, this pre-loaded, single-use box is an adaptable and efficient way to feed paper band coil into a variety of turn-up machine configurations.

Provided herein are applicators and methods for dispensing adhesive tape. Such adhesive tape applicators include a housing adapted to contain a roll of adhesive tape; a compressible tape hub attached to an inner surface of the housing and adapted to rotatably support the roll of adhesive tape; and an adhesive roller apparatus for applying the adhesive tape to a substrate. The compressibility of the compressible tape hub provides a means of braking and tearing the adhesive tape roll.

Turn-up tape delivery assembly comprising a dual channel track for paper web turn-up systems
An improved tape delivery assembly for delivering a turn-up tape across a moving web of paper being wound onto a spool, the assembly being part of a paper web turn-up system, the tape being used to sever and transfer the leading edge of the cut paper web onto an empty spool. The track body of the tape delivery assembly extending across the paper web comprises a dual internal pathway, having a primary longitudinal channel and a secondary longitudinal channel through which a primary or secondary tape is passed, respectively. A primary tape dispenser assembly delivers the primary tape into the primary channel and a secondary tape dispenser assembly delivers the secondary tape into the secondary channel. A braking mechanism is provided to retard travel of the primary and secondary tapes for removal from the track body.

A torn paper web capture system that is a mechanism for securing a band, tape or strap, preferably composed of paper, across a paper roll as the roll is rotating. A sensor means detects the torn paper web and initiates both the shut down of rotation of the paper roll and the release of the band. The band resides within a guide track, the track being generally C-shaped in cross-section Upon contact with spool journal or similar rotating member the end of the band adheres and is wrapped around the rotating member. This wrapping action takes up the slack in the band and pulls it from the guide track and against the paper web, thereby securing the loose end of the paper web. The contact between the band and the rotating member may be initiated in multiple ways, such as with a nip roller, an actuating shoe member, or the like.
