Hand Sheet Dryer

Cod. H9

Lab Scale Curved Hand Sheet Dryer is designed for drying various hand sheets from circular, square or large sized rectangular hand sheets e.g. the 94 x 25 handsheets made with dynamic sheet former. The hand sheet is dry, catch between the massive curved heating plate and a strongly tightened cotton fabric. This way of drying avoids shrinking of the sheet during drying process. The papermaker characteristics of the obtained dried sheet are excellent. It can heat up to 150 deg C, or more upon request, with a convenient digital display and setting.
