Paper Machine Clothing Single Layer Forming Fabric
Description
The single-layer forming fabric is the simplest forming fabric. They are woven
in 4-shed(Provides good stretch and drainage properties. Small fiber loss and
good sheet release.), 5-shed(Provides better stretch and drainage properties
than 4-shed. Retention can be improved by increasing weft yarns. Primarily used
on tissue machines.), and 8-shed for different applications. In flat woven type
fabric, the warp, during weaving, is composed of yarn which is referred to as
MD yarn. In order to make endless loops, fabrics are joined by connecting the
warp yarn at the end of each fabric. FILCON uses automated seaming machines for
connecting fabrics. According to their weaving shed, single-layer forming
fabrics could be used for the manufacture of kraft papers, tissue papers,
writing & printing papers, and so on.
