The Kingsley KingFlex holders is designed
for high performance doctoring in a variety of paper machine
roll positions, with a remarkably low rate of blade consumption.
Pneumatic pressure provides balanced blade pressure across
the roll face at all times during operation. By balancing
blade-to-roll pressure and assuring a precise fit, the KingFlex
Doctor assures longer blade life, which reduces downtime necessary
for blade and roll maintenance. To maintain optimum doctoring
during changes in machine operating conditions, loading pressures
can be adjusted through the pressure-regulating panel. Air
Loading cylinders are an available option to open the doctor
from the roll.
KingFlex holders are constructed of
stainless steel with stainless loading plates, and are ruggedly
built to give dependable operation under difficult conditions.
On applications such as breast rolls, press rolls, breaker
stack rolls, first and last dryers, sweat dryers, MG, bottom,
intermediate and top calender rolls and reel drums, KingFlex
holders have proved to be ecinomincal. Loading fingers, constructed
of cast stainless steel for better corrosion resistance, are
manufactured with blade retaining grooves. Blade tabs facilitate
either front or end removal.
Two pneumatic pressure tubes run the
full length of the holder–the load tube which provides
precise, uniform and adjustable control to the blade, and
the unload tube which is used to lift the holder for blade
changing. The tubes rest against loading fingers, mounted
on a pivot rod. A flexible stainless steel loading plate connects
all fingers in the holder. The doctor blade is inserted between
the loading plate and stainless steel fingers. During operation,
pneumatic pressure is applied to the loading tube, which actuates
the fingers and transfers pressure to the blade tip. With
the inherent flexibility of the top plate supported by separate
loading fingers, the loading pressure is distributed evenly
across the roll face through the doctor blade.
