Grooving

Paper and board machines

The main draw of a paper and board machine should take no more than about 1 to 2 minutes. In problem situations, it may take up to 10 or 20 minutes. Obviously, this wastes a lot of time and reduces the productivity of the whole factory. With grooving, the speed of drying and pope cylinders can be improved considerably. This prevents the paper from fluttering when air is directed into the grooves. It also prevents paper breakages caused by air pressure.
