MACHINE AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCING A FIBER MATERIAL WEB

摘要

Machine and process for producing a fiber material web that includes at least one press device having a shoe press unit and a drying drum, such that the shoe press unit and the drying drum are positioned to form an elongated press nip. The mach ine also includes at least one belt that is water-permeable and water-absorbent and that is adapted to guide the fiber material web through the press nip, and at least o ne suction device located ahead of the elongated press nip, relative to a belt trav el direction. The at least one belt is guided over the at least one suction device. The process includes guiding the at least one belt over the at least one suction dev ice and suctioning the at least one belt, such that moisture is removed from the at leas t one belt, and guiding the fiber material web and the suctioned at least one belt thr ough the extended press nip.
