Head Box
Tissue machine's head box is designed to evenly distribute a suspension of fiber stock into a
very thin layer. The suspension of fiber and water, called „stock?, usually has an initial
composition of around 99.5% water and 0.5% solids, mostly fiber. Finished basis weights of
tissue are typically in the range of 13-25 grams/square meter (gsm).
Head Boxes in a tissue machine essentially distributes stock evenly across the width of the
tissue machine into the gap between the wire and the felt.
High productivity and low energy consumption with excellent runability are the key focus
areas for Servall selection of forming sections.
The challenge with tissue makers have always been to produce various tissue grades at the
desired levels of market expectations, we at Servall ensure this challenge is taken care with
our state of the art Headboxes.
