• Reeling
    Optimize secondary arm mechanics to wind a uniform roll with minimum bulk loss. Also reduce reel breaks and improve yield in converting.

  • Rewinding
    Compute roll unweighting curve to wind a uniform roll while conserving bulk and stretch. Also set draws and speeds.

  • Conformal Lips
    Contoured profiles of the suction lips, such as Uhle box, dewatering and pick-up slots reduce the contact psi against the felt, thus reducing felt and lip wear.

  • Negative Crown Roll
    A felt roll crowned negatively straightens the bow, resulting in uniformity of drainage, suction, nip mechanics and felt wear across the deckle.

  • Crowning
    Develop crown curve for rolls in contact to produce a uniform line load. Special cases considered are: multiple roll stack, skewed rolls, rubber covered rolls and zero-crown rolls.
