Get Custom Recommendation →Compare Technical Routes by Machine Section
Each machine section has multiple technical routes available. Understand the pros, cons, and applicable scenarios for each option.
Forming Section
SSB Triple Layer
- • Separate paper-side and machine-side design considerations
- • Review fibre support and drainage together
Double Layer
- • Double-layer forming structure
- • Review with paper grade and forming-section configuration
Single Layer
- • Single-layer forming structure
- • Review with grade, furnish and machine configuration
Dryer Section
Flat Yarn Dryer Fabric
- • Flat-yarn dryer-fabric construction
- • Review sheet support, permeability and dryer position together
Round Yarn Dryer Fabric
- • Round-yarn dryer-fabric construction
- • Review permeability and dryer position with the machine conditions
Spiral Dryer Fabric
- • Very high air permeability (best for pulp drying)
- • Excellent dimensional stability
