Forming Fabrics

Annapurna is a new generation of forming fabric technology incorporating innovative new fabric structures with high quality materials delivering superior performance of your demanding paperboard and packaging grade machines.

Benefits include:

Reduces energy consumption by more than 15%,Improves fiber retention by up to 15%,Extends fabric life by 15 to 25%,Delivers superior fabric stability,Enhances sheet drainage rates,Improves sheet quality & strength

Dealing in two types of Fabric:

• Single layer fabric
• Multi Layer Fabric

Single Layer Fabric:

1.Weave pattern-4,5&8 shed

2.CFM Range- 350-600

3.Thickness/caliper-.43-2.06mm

4.Fiber support index-50-85

Characterstics:

• Simple Constrction
• High volume of wear side material thus longer life
• High fiber support index
• Better sheet release
• Uniform hole size
• High air permeability
• Good fiber support/retention
• Good drainage

Multi Layer Fabric:

1.Multilayer design available in : 1.5,2,2.5,3&3.5 layers

2.Weave Pattern : 8 & 16 shed

3.CFM Range : 350-550

4.Thickness/Caliper : 0.90-1.50mm

5.Fiber support index : 80-150

Characterstics:

• Excellent dimensional stability
• High air permeability
• Good drainage
• Powerful construction that withstands high M.D load s and resists C.D ridging
• Good retention
• Excellent formation
• Better sheet knock-off
• Longer life potential than single layer
• High fiber support index
• Wear side is coarses and more oper
• Large Wear side C.D Yarn
• Excellent topside smoothness
• Better sheet release/retension
• Excellent sheet quality
