A method for treating a pulp web in a paper or tissue machine with an extended-nip press unit. This extended-nip press unit includes a shoe press roll with a revolving press belt and a backing roll, where the pulp web is dewatered in the extended press nip between the backing roll and the press belt and where the pulp web is carried on the revolving press belt of the press roll after the extended press nip to a transfer fabric that receives the pulp web. The transfer fabric is guided over a stationary transfer device in the transfer area. A corresponding device for treating the pulp web.

Provided are tissue webs, and products produced therefrom, that are generally durable, flexible and have improved cross-machine direction (CD) properties, such as CD tensile energy absorption (CD TEA), CD stretch and CD modulus. The inventive tissue products generally comprise a single tissue ply that has been prepared by through-air drying and more preferably by through-air drying without creping. Moreover, the products may be produced using a transfer fabric positioned between the forming fabric and the through-air drying fabric where the transfer fabric imparts the nascent web with a high degree of CD strain.

A fabric for a web-producing machine, such as a papermaker's machine for producing paper, tissue or board, contains a machine-side and a paper-side. The fabric further contains MD-yarns and CD-yarns interwoven with each other in a predetermined repeat pattern. The MD-yarns 12 have a non-circular cross-section, and a width-to-height aspect ratio of the MD-yarns 12 is greater than 10:1, preferably at least 11:1. Furthermore, a web-producing machine, such as a papermaker's machine for producing paper, tissue or board, contains a fabric of the above described type, where the fabric is preferably applied in a dryer section of the web-producing machine.
