20080196855 | PRESS SECTION AND PERMEABLE BELT IN A PAPER MACHINE - A permeable belt, a belt press including a roll having an exterior surface and the permeable belt, and a method of drying or pressing a web with the permeable belt. The permeable belt can be tensioned to at least 30 KN/m. A side of the permeable belt has an open area of at least approximately 25% and a contact area of at least approximately 25%. This Abstract is not intended to define the invention disclosed in the specification, nor intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way. | 08-21-2008 |
20080210397 | Press Section and Permeable Belt in a Paper Machine - A belt press for a paper machine, the belt press including a roll having an exterior surface and a permeable belt. The permeable belt has a first side and is guided over a portion of the exterior surface of the roll. The permeable belt has a tension of at least approximately 30 KN/m, the first side has an open area of at least approximately 25% and a contact area of at least approximately 10%. | 09-04-2008 |
20080251227 | TISSUE MACHINE - An apparatus for producing a fibrous web, in particular a tissue web, with a press zone through which the fibrous web is passed in a lying position between a circulating permeable structured belt and a circulating permeable non-structured supporting belt. A press nip is provided on a Yankee Cylinder through which the fibrous web is passed in the lying position together with the structured belt between the structured belt and the Yankee cylinder, whereby the press zone is limited on the side adjacent the supporting belt by a substantially smooth surface, and whereby the supporting belt is not brought together with the fibrous web and the structured belt until proximate to the press zone. | 10-16-2008 |
20090165979 | ADVANCED DEWATERING SYSTEM - System for drying a tissue or hygiene web. The system includes a permeable structured fabric carrying the web over a drying apparatus. A permeable dewatering fabric contacts the web and is guided over the drying apparatus. A mechanism is used to apply pressure to the permeable structured fabric, the web, and the permeable dewatering fabric at the drying apparatus. This Abstract is not intended to define the invention disclosed in the specification, nor intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way. | 07-02-2009 |
20090165980 | ADVANCED DEWATERING SYSTEM - System for drying a tissue or hygiene web. The system includes a permeable structured fabric carrying the web over a drying apparatus. A permeable dewatering fabric contacts the web and is guided over the drying apparatus. A mechanism is used to apply pressure to the permeable structured fabric, the web, and the permeable dewatering fabric at the drying apparatus. This Abstract is not intended to define the invention disclosed in the specification, nor intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way. | 07-02-2009 |
20100170651 | PRESS SECTION AND PERMEABLE BELT IN A PAPER MACHINE - A pressing arrangement including at least one first fabric and second fabric both being permeable. A paper web is disposed between the first fabric and the second fabric. A pressure producing element is in contact with the first fabric. A support surface of a supporting structure is in contact with the second fabric. A differential pressure is provided between the first fabric and the support surface that acts on the first fabric, the paper web, and the second fabric, whereby the paper web is subjected to mechanical pressure and experiences a predetermined hydraulic pressure so as to cause water to be drained from the paper web. The pressing arrangement is structured and arranged to allow air to flow in a direction from the first fabric through the paper web and through the second fabric. | 07-08-2010 |
20100243190 | ADVANCED DEWATERING SYSTEM - A belt press for a paper machine, the belt press including a roll having an exterior surface and a permeable belt. The permeable belt including a first side being guided over a portion of the exterior surface of the roll. The permeable belt having a tension of at least approximately 30 kN/m. The first side of the belt having an open area of at least approximately 25% and a contact area of at least approximately 10%. A web travels between the permeable belt and the exterior surface of the roll. | 09-30-2010 |
20110146932 | ADVANCED DEWATERING SYSTEM - Method of drying a paper web in a press arrangement. The method includes moving the paper web, disposed between at least one first fabric and at least one second fabric, between a support surface and a pressure producing element and moving a fluid through the paper web, the at least one first and second fabrics, and the support surface. This Abstract is not intended to define the invention disclosed in the specification, nor intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way. | 06-23-2011 |
20120061044 | ADVANCED DEWATERING SYSTEM - A permeable belt for use in a system for dewatering and/or drying a fibrous web. The permeable belt capable of being subjected to a tension of at least approximately 30 kN/m, the permeable belt having at least one side having an open area of at least approximately 25% and a contact area of at least approximately 10%. | 03-15-2012 |
