Application
Corrugated Paper Production
Specialized machine clothing for corrugated medium and fluting paper production. PAPTEX fabrics deliver excellent drainage and runnability for high-speed corrugated paper machines.
The Challenge
Application Context
Paper grade, machine speed, width, and drainage configuration all affect clothing selection. The challenge is balancing runnability, sheet quality, and service life.
The Solution
How PAPTEX Supports
We provide a complete fabric portfolio optimized for specific paper grades — from forming and press fabrics to dryer fabrics and dewatering belts. Each is tailored to the specific drainage, retention, and surface quality requirements of the target paper grade.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the right fabric for my paper machine?
Selection depends on your paper grade, machine speed, machine type, and performance goals. Our engineers analyze your specific parameters — including headbox design, dewatering element configuration, and current fabric performance — to recommend the matching solution.
Can fabrics be used across different paper grades?
While some fabrics can be used across similar grades, optimization is recommended per grade. Different grades (tissue vs. kraft vs. fine paper) have very different requirements for drainage, retention, and surface quality.
How long does fabric installation take?
Forming fabric change typically takes 4-8 hours depending on machine width and complexity. Dryer fabric change is faster (2-4 hours). We provide installation supervision to minimize downtime.
