A papermaking machine having at least one of a dryer section or a press section configured to receive a web of material, at least one inductive energy generator, and first and second fabrics, which can be dryer or press fabrics, including induction heat susceptors. The first and second fabrics are supported for movement through the at least one of the dryer section or the press section and adapted to contact the web of material. The inductive energy generator is used to generate heat in the induction heat susceptors in order to heat a paper web being carried by the fabrics in order to remove moisture.

A Yankee drier for paper production including a body having a metal mantle with circular cross-section and two side heads on which are formed or mounted two respective coaxial pins arranged along a rotation axis of the Yankee, the body being configured to rotate with a predetermined angular speed around the rotation axis. Inside the body is arranged a fixed electromagnetic induction heating system comprising one or more inductors interacting electromagnetically with the mantle to produce induced electric currents in the same mantle, the one or more inductors being arranged near the radially innermost surface of the mantle.

A papermaking machine including a Yankee including a body provided with a metal mantle with circular cross-section and two end heads on which are formed or mounted two respective coaxial pins arranged along a rotation axis of the Yankee, the body being configured to rotate with a predetermined angular speed around said rotation axis. Inside the body is arranged a fixed electromagnetic induction heating system including one or more inductors interacting electromagnetically with the mantle to produce induced electric currents in the same mantle, the inductors being arranged near the radially innermost surface of the mantle. In the machine is arranged a structured web configured for transporting a sheet of fibrous material up to the contact of the latter with the mantle of the Yankee.
