Suction press roll for efficient water removal and sheet transfer to Yankee cylinder.
The suction press roll performs the critical function of mechanical dewatering in the pressing section, removing water far more energy-efficiently than thermal drying while establishing the sheet properties that influence final tissue quality. Parason's suction press rolls are engineered to achieve maximum water removal while preserving sheet bulk.
Our suction press roll design balances the competing requirements of high nip pressure for dewatering efficiency and controlled compression to maintain tissue bulk. The precision-manufactured shell, available in stainless steel or brass construction, provides uniform support across the nip width.
Advanced features including hydro-pneumatic nip damping and internal cross-rail support systems address the operational challenges of high-speed tissue production, ensuring stable operation and extended component life.
