There is provided a method of producing a containerboard, comprising the step of pressing a web formed from a pulp comprising NSSC pulp in an extended nip press, such as a shoe press, wherein the line load in the extended nip press is above 1200 kN/m. Further, there is provided a corrugated board comprising a liner and a fluting, wherein the fluting is formed from a pulp comprising NSSC pulp, the density of the fluting is above 725 kg/m3 and the geometric SCT index (ISO 9895) of the fluting is above 37 Nm/g.

A machine for producing a fibrous web, such as a tissue web, has pressing device with a pressing element and a counter-element with a closed surface for forming a pressure nip. A water-absorbing belt with a web side and an opposite pressing element side is guided together with the fibrous web through the pressure nip and the fibrous web is separated at the end of the pressure nip from the web side of the water-absorbing belt and runs further with the counter-element. The water-absorbing belt has at least a first ply and a second ply, and, as viewed in the thickness direction of the water-absorbing belt, a layer in or on the belt half which faces the pressing element, which layer has a higher specific throughflow resistance than the first ply and/or the second ply.

A shoe press belt with excellent mechanical properties, in particular a shoe press belt with excellent crack resistance and excellent resistance to land edge deficiency. The shoe press belt includes a felt-side resin layer containing a resin formed by curing a prepolymer having a terminal isocyanate group (—NCO) with a curing agent, wherein the prepolymer contains, in reacted form, a compound comprising 1,4-bis(isocyanate methyl) cyclohexane and a polycarbonate diol, and wherein the felt-side resin layer has grooves that are configured to receive water squeezed from a felt.

A press cover contains at least one polymer layer in which a reinforcing structure is embedded. The reinforcing structure contains at least one reinforcing thread, wherein the material of the reinforcing structure and that of the at least one polymer layer are selected such that the visible light transmittances thereof differ from each other.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a shoe press belt which exhibits improvement in mechanical characteristics such as crack resistance, wear resistance, delamination resistance and bending fatigue resistance, particularly in the surface wear resistance of the shoe press belt and the crack resistance of the bottom regions of water receiving parts. A shoe press belt which is produced by integrating a reinforcing substrate with a polyurethane layer including at least a felt-side layer and in which water-receiving parts are formed in the felt-side layer, wherein the polyurethane equivalent value of the second resin layer including the bottom regions of the water-receiving parts is adjusted so as to be larger than that of the first resin layer including a surface which is to be brought into contact with a felt.

There is provided a shoe press belt for a papermaking machine, comprising one or more resin layers. At least a part of the resin layers comprises a polyurethane resin comprising polymeric MIDI as an ingredient. The polyurethane resin may be a resin obtainable by reacting one or more curing agent(s) having an active hydrogen group, polymeric MDI and one or more urethane prepolymer(s) having a terminal isocyanate group, the urethane prepolymer(s) being obtainable by reacting one or more isocyanate compound(s) with one or more polyol(s).

Herein described is a plant for the production of web-like paper material comprising a forming equipment, which dispenses a paper material slurry on a support canvas, and a desiccating equipment, which is designed to desiccate the paper material slurry to form the web-like paper material. The desiccating equipment comprises at least one first rotary perforated cylinder and at least one second rotary perforated cylinder, on whose surface the paper material slurry conveyed by the support canvas dynamically adheres, and a heating system, which is designed to generate and deliver hot process air to at least one of the first rotary perforated cylinder and the second rotary perforated cylinder. The first rotary perforated cylinder is a cylinder operating under relative pressure conditions, wherein the hot process air is blown from inside the first rotary perforated cylinder towards the web-like paper material conveyed by the support canvas. The second perforated cylinder is a cylinder operating under relative vacuum conditions, wherein the hot process air is suctioned, through the second rotary perforated cylinder, from web-like paper material conveyed by the support canvas. A recovery circuit is designed for the recovery of the hot process air suctioned from the second rotary perforated cylinder and to deliver such hot process air to the first rotary perforated cylinder.

Collecting data includes generating a sensor signal from each of a plurality of sensors located on a sensing roll, wherein each signal is generated when each sensor enters a region of a nip between the sensing roll and mating roll during each rotation of the sensing roll; wherein a web of material travels through the nip and a continuous band contacts a region of the web of material upstream from or at the nip. A periodically occurring starting reference is generated associated with each rotation of the continuous band and the signal generated by each sensor is received so that the one of the plurality of sensors which generated this signal is determined and one of a plurality of tracking segments associated with the continuous band is identified. The signal is stored to associate the respective sensor signal with the identified one tracking segment.

The invention relates to sealing systems of suction rolls, comprising inside at least one suction box (4) which is sealed laterally by one sealing strip system (1, 2) respectively from the roll shell (3)and each sealing strip system (1, 2) comprises one sealing strip (1.1, 2.1), which is inserted in a sealing strip holder (1.2, 2.2), whereby at least one lubricant supply is integrated in at least one sealing strip holder (1.2, 2.2), whereby at least one opening (10) of the lubricant supply runs at an outer side of the sealing strip holder (1.2, 2.2) in the sealing strip holder (1.2, 2.2), which is located in front of the sealing strip (1.1, 2.1) in the direction of movement of the roll shell (3).

A fabric, in particular a felt, for use in a machine for producing a tissue web, has a base structure, which has a textile structure with MD threads, and at least one layer of nonwoven fibers. The MD threads predominantly or as a whole have a diameter ranging between 0.25 mm and 0.45 mm, in particular between 0.3 mm and 0.35 mm, and the thread density of the MD threads is more than 37%, in particular between 37% and 45%. There is also described a machine and a method for producing a tissue web using such a fabric.
