FSI quantifies the number of fiber support points per unit area on the paper side. Each MD/CD yarn intersection = a fiber anchoring point. Higher FSI = more uniform fiber mat = better retention + fewe
A comprehensive guide to selecting forming fabrics based on paper grade, machine speed, and dewatering requirements. Learn how weave pattern, air permeability, and fiber support affect paper quality.
A specialized guide for tissue producers on forming fabric selection and optimization. Covers low-basis-weight sheet support and dewatering requirements for 14–22 gsm tissue grades.
Tissue (<40 gsm)→70-95 threads/cm. Culture (40-120 gsm)→50-70. Packaging (80-200 gsm)→35-55. Heavy-weight (200-400+ gsm)→25-40. Finer mesh = better fiber support but lower drainage. The right mesh is
PAPTEX SSB (Surface-Support-Binder) Triple Layer Forming Fabric represents the pinnacle of forming fabric technology. Engineered with a proprietary self-binding weave structure, it combines a fine pap
PAPTEX Double Layer Forming Fabric strikes the ideal balance between performance and cost-effectiveness for medium-speed paper machines. The dual-layer construction features a fine paper-side warp for
PAPTEX 2.5-Layer Forming Fabric bridges the gap between double-layer economy and full SSB performance. The innovative "2.5-layer" design adds an extra support weft layer to a double-layer base, signif
Engineering overviewPT-SSB4500 is a high-retention 2/5-satin SSB triple-layer forming fabric for fine, printing and specialty paper. Its dense paper-side structure delivers an FSI of 170 while the mod
