Abstract
A method and apparatus are disclosed for preventing warp in the manufacture of corrugated board formed from three webs; namely, a single face liner, a medium, and a double face liner. The method includes moisture measurements of the single-face liner and double-face liner over a plurality of zones transverse to the direction of liner motion. For each zone of each liner an iteratively determined asymptotic zonal time average moisture value is calculated. If the zonal time average difference is greater than a predefined amount, corrective action is taken by increasing or decreasing the amount of water sprayed onto the single-face liner for that particular zone. Furthermore, an average moisture content reading for the single-face and double-face liners is taken and if outside a predetermined range, corrective action is taken by adjusting the preheater wrap arm angle for some or all of the webs. Adjustments of the corrective action in view of web speeds are automatically made.

Important Notes on Latency of Status data
Please note there is up to 60 days of latency in this Status indicator for certain status conditions. You can obtain up-to-date Status indicator readings by ordering PAIR for the file.
An application with the status "Published" (which means it is pending) may be recently abandoned, but not yet updated to reflect its abandoned status. However, an application filed less than one year ago is unlikely to be abandoned.
A patent with the status "Granted" may be recently expired, but not yet updated to reflect its expired status. However, it is highly unlikely a patent less than 3.5 years old would be expired.
An application with the status "Abandoned" is almost always current, but there is a small chance it was recently revived and the status not yet updated.
Important Note on Priority Date data
This priority date is an estimated earliest priority date and is purely an estimation. This date should not be taken as legal conclusion. No representations are made as to the accuracy of the date listed. Please consult a legal professional before relying on this date.
