A process for producing a papermakers' fabric, wherein the paper contacting surface of the fabric is molded between two preferably heated surfaces adapted to apply contact pressure to the fabric to optimally smoothen the paper contacting surface of the fabric and egalize caliper variations in the fabric. Preferably the two surfaces are surfaces of two cooperating rolls formed in a nip press. The fabric is passed through the nip press into engagement with the heated rolls thereby molding and smoothening the surface of the fabric. |
