The invention relates to a system of producing MFC (micro fibrillated cellulose) having a process device (30) of a pulper, a refiner or a screen configured to process MFC suspension to consistency of 0.5-5%. The system has a continuous pressing means (15; 25, 26) configured to dry the MFC suspension to a consistency of 6-60%. A method of producing MFC has at least one process stage (30) which processes a MFC suspension to a consistency of 0.5-5% by a process device (30). In the process stage the MFC suspension is pulped in a pulping stage in a pulper and/or refined in a refining stage by a refiner and/or screened in a screening stage by a screen. The MFC suspension having the consistency of 0.5-5% is dried in a drying stage of continuous pressing (15, 25, 26) by continuous a pressing device (15, 25, 26) to a consistency of 6-60%.

A former section including a headbox, a felt, a wire, a forming roll having a suction zone and a forming section, and a gap section defined by the section between the headbox and a position where the felt and the wire are brought together at the forming roll. The headbox distributes a pulp slurry into the gap section to be sandwiched by the felt and the wire to form a paper sheet. A bottom side of the paper sheet contacts the felt and a top side of the paper sheet contacts the wire, and the sandwiched felt, paper sheet and wire wrap around the forming roll. A press roll forms a nip with the forming roll through which the paper sheet is carried by the felt and the wire, and the suction zone of the forming roll is arranged in a section around the nip.

The invention relates to manufacturing low weight high quality paper suitable for use as a support layer of a release liner. A paper web is formed from pulp slurry, the moisture content of the paper web is reduced by a press section (PSEC), the paper web is supported by a belt (BELT1) from a first contact point (CP1) in the press section (PSEC) to a first separation point (SP1) in a drying section (DSEC), and the paper web is dried to form paper. The temperature profile of the paper web may be non-decreasing. When supported, the temperature of the paper web of the paper web may be higher than or equal to 56° C. to obtain a paper web having a dry content of at least 40 wt.-% at the first separation point.

The device for embossing and perforating foils for tobacco goods includes: a pair of embossing rolls, one of the embossing rolls having teeth for perforating the foil, the counter roll to the embossing roll with the perforating teeth being a matrix roll which has recesses that correspond to the teeth on the patrix roll, both embossing rolls being arranged in a perforation device, and the device being designed in order to be operated directly or indirectly online in a machine for producing tobacco goods. The use of patrix-matrix embossing rolls allows for a large variety of perforations, the device having a control unit designed to control the exact position, size and arrangement of the perforations on the basis of the quality of the foil to be processed.

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.

A seamed felt for use in a machine for producing a tissue web has a single-layer or multilayer base structure and at least one layer of non-woven fibers. The base structure has a textile structure with MD threads which form seam loops at the two front edges of the base structure. The fabric can be made endless by connecting its front edges by way of a seam. The seam can be formed by interlocking the seam loops of the two front edges and introducing a push-in element. The MD threads wholly or predominantly have a diameter 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 corresponding machine and a method for producing a tissue web.

A fibrous structure. The structure includes a plurality of semi-continuous knuckles extending from portions of the surface of the fibrous structure in a parallel path, wherein the plurality of semi-continuous knuckles are separated by adjacent semi-continuous pillow regions. Each semi-continuous knuckle comprises a plurality of discrete pillows, the plurality of discrete pillows are arranged in a spaced configuration along the path of each of the semi-continuous knuckle.
