A wet laid process includes a method for making paper in which a composition containing co-refined cellulose fibers and cellulose ester fibers made into a thick stock composition in a machine chest, the thick stock is fed to a cleaning/screening zone through a device that regulates the flow rate of thick stock, the consistency of the thick stock fed to the screening/cleaning zone is reduced to form a thin stock composition; the thin stock composition is subjected to a process for cleaning the thin stock and feeding the cleaned thin stock through screens to form a cleaned and screened thin stock composition, and the cleaned and screened thin stock composition is fed to a headbox.

A device and a method for producing a pulp web in which the first clothing and the second clothing are wrapped partly round the forming roll and another roll. The pulp web formed is guided between the forming roll and the other roll on the first clothing and the second clothing is guided separately from the first clothing, at least in one section. This enables the pulp web to be produced with low energy consumption and operating costs.

[Task] The object of the present invention is to provide an industrial two-layered fabric with a long durability which exhibits an excellent surface smoothness and excellent marking characteristics, while at the same time improving wear resistance characteristics to balance warps and wefts. [Solution to the Task] An industrial two-layered fabric formed by binding yarns, diameters of all of the upper surface side warps are set to be the same, diameters of all of the lower surface side warps are set to be the same, diameters of the lower surface side warps are set to be larger than diameters of said upper surface side warps, and at least one, or more than one of said upper surface side warps are woven with said lower surface side wefts to constitute binding yarns binding said at least one upper surface side fabric and said at least one lower surface side fabric.

A fabric having a first woven fabric layer forming a paper side and made of first threads, and a second woven fabric layer made of second threads, the two woven fabric layers being connected by binder threads belonging to the first woven fabric layer such that at binding points the respective binder thread binds with one first thread on the paper side, then changes to the second woven fabric layer and binds with at least two second threads and then returns to the first woven fabric layer again and binds with a first thread on the paper side, wherein at binding points only one first thread is not bound by the said binder thread.

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.
