Voith has enhanced its CleanWeave product range with the new Magma and MagmaHigh dryer fabrics. Magma dryer fabrics are made from hydrolysis-resistant PPS which ensures performance in the hottest dryer positions.

  • Heat-resistant material for high-temperature ranges
  • Clean machine run due to proven weave pattern
  • Predictable servicing schedule for cost-efficient operation

Extreme temperatures in some paper machines put dryer fabrics under severe stress and call for special material properties. Hydrolysis-resistant PPS reduces the stress on the fabric, allows service intervals to be properly planned and thus prevents unscheduled machine downtimes. Moreover, both Magma and MagmaHigh use the weave pattern that has already proven effective in the CleanWeave product range. The weave structure features industry low internal void volume, which significantly reduces dirt within the fabric. Due to its relatively low number of yarn crossover points, this compact weave pattern makes surface cleaning easier and ensures constant air permeability. This guarantees that the fabric maintains its air permeability for optimum drying and web running properties over its entire service life.

The superior reliability of Magma and MagmaHigh dryer fabrics makes planning easier and ultimately leads to more efficient and economic paper machine operation. As well as the dryer fabrics, Voith offers excellent service support and associated consultancy services.
