Boost efficiency with Valmet Web Stabilizer SR

Valmet Web Stabilizer SR* blow box is a dryer section runnability concept for single-felted dryer groups. They are typically installed in conjunction with grooved rolls or vacuum rolls and can be applied for both paper and board machine concepts having single-felting. The blow box concept offers excellent sheet stability, better energy economy and improved productivity. This is partly due to the blowing nozzle construction which has made it possible to reduce the blowing air amount remarkably leading to improved energy economy and smaller ducts and fans. 

Excellent sheet stability with Valmet Hirun Web Stabilizer 

At the beginning of the dryer section, the web dries rather slowly. This means that, with increasing machine speeds, it becomes more difficult to maintain web stability. Valmet Hirun Web Stabilizer system concentrates on solving special runnability problems on first dryer groups. The web release from the dryer cylinder is facilitated by means of a very powerful vacuum area. Valmet Hirun web release zone guarantees that the web and the tail will follow the dryer fabric in all running conditions.
