Abstract (en)

In the manufacture of paper or paperboard, a web of fibrous cellulosic material is wet-formed on an endless foraminous forming band (11), is partially dewatered in a vacuum dewatering stage (13) and is then dried. In order to improve drying of the web and reduce energy consumption and space utilization, the partially dewatered web is subjected to a press-drying stage whilst supported by the forming band (11). In this press-drying stage, the web and band are advanced through a plurality of pressure nips (15-24) provided between two rotating heated drying cylinders (18,25) and a plurality of cooperating pressure rollers (19-28), and the web is pressed into contact with the circumferences of the cylinders between the pressure nips by the forming band (11).
