Broke Cleaning and Screening
Online Course Description:
"Broke" refers to partly or fully manufactured paper or board that is discarded from paper or board making, converting, and finishing processes. It also refers to the stock made by repulping these materials. Broke is continuously being produced and it is the job of the "broke system" to collect this valuable resource and supply it back to the paper or board making process for reuse. Many broke systems include cleaning and screening stages just before the broke fiber is returned to the machine furnish. The purpose of broke cleaning and screening systems is to remove contaminants from the broke stream, break apart fiber flakes and bundles in the broke to improve sheet uniformity and minimize fiber losses, and return a clean, consistent flow of broke to the machine furnish.
