Pope Reel

The reels with a supporting drum of the POPE type, are designed for reeling the paper web. The paper web is consistently wound onto a roll, known as the reel spool. The revolutions of the reel spool are influenced by the downward pressure generated by the carrying cylinder, which is powered by a geared electric motor.

The supporting drum can be constructed from cast iron or entirely welded from structural carbon or stainless steel. Positioned between stands is a doctor equipped with electromechanical oscillation for surface cleaning. On the control side of the paper machine, there is a fixed or free rope pulley, depending on the paper threading system into the reel. The supporting drum features an internal cooling system used for cooling the paper web from the drying section.
