SPIRALLY LINKED DRYER SCREENS

The spiral dryer screens are specially engineered paper machine clothings for the dryer section in the Paper Mill. The unique seamless spiral dryer screens are ideal for the dryer section where a seam is unacceptable. It is easy to install and repair as it is a chain of spiral loops and hence reduces downtime & increases productivity. These spiral screens are made up of hydrolysis resistant monofilament yarns & have excellent tensile strength & wear resistance. Shalimar has two types spiral screens.




Spiral screens with round yarns for drying applications

Application

  •    High surface contact area. Very good resistance against abrasion & moist heat
  •     Extremely good ventilation & effective drying.
  •     High resistance to plugging & contamination.
  •     Facilitates ease of length alterations (if any) due self-seaming.
  •     No Thermal shrinkage/elongation.
  •     No Fluttering.

Features

  •    Spirally-linked.
  •     Knuckle free plane surface
  •    High Air permeability.
  •     Flexible.
  •     High caliper.


Advantages

  •    Widely used for all dryer positions of Liner & Fluting, Kraft & Grey board machines.
  •     Suitable for Duplex Board machines in later dryer groups.
  •     Dry-link Finer ST & Dry-link Coarser ST widely used on belt presses, sludge de-watering unit.

Stuffed Spiral screens for De-watering, conveyor applications

Within a spiral and between two connecting channels, another channel forms, which is called filling channel. To reduce the air permeability filler wires are inserted into these remaining cavities. Because of this, the unfilled spiral screens have higher air permeability than filled spiral screens. The value of air permeability in stuffed spiral screens depends on the size of the cored wire used.

Application

  •     Drying section.
  •     Sludge press.
  •     Slurry De-watering.
  •     Conveyor belt..

Features

  •    Stable runnability.
  •     High Stiffness
  •    Flat, homogeneous & even surface.
  •     High Stiffness


Advantages

  •    High Stiffness.
