Voith launches next-generation dry web with advanced Linx technology

Voith Paper Fabrics has made progress in independent innovation in the Asia Pacific region. The company recently introduced a new spiral network - PrintTech LFC with Linx technology. This product is bold and innovative. It combines the advantages of various designs. It not only provides paper sheet support but also facilitates customer cleaning. It also improves the anti-abrasiveness of the dry web in the high-speed single-hanging dryer section.

“This advanced patented technology was completely developed by our Malaysian Ipoh factory, which has greatly improved the performance of the dryer fabric and provided customers with a new choice.” JP Liew, Voyit Asia Pacific Dry Fabric Product Manager Mr. Shi said, "With this spiral backbone product, we will provide the full service for the Asia-Pacific market, as Voith does in the global market - engineering technology and innovation."

The new spiral mesh has a unique, flat spiral surface. The more common spiral fabric, its oval shape is more flat. This feature increases the contact area, which enhances the sheet support and improves the operation of the threader and the paper machine. This necessary improvement can also improve the quality of paper and help customers save energy.

In addition, Linx technology has another feature - X-type filler. This filler is the result of Voith's research on how to form a variety of fabric contaminations in different dry web areas. It not only enhances cleaning performance, reduces the formation of contaminating particles, maintains better penetration, but also helps maintain sheet control and paper quality.

In terms of wear resistance, Linx technology uses 6% more material than conventional spiral fabrics and more than 30% more than standard high-speed woven fabrics, which improves the abrasion resistance of the dryer fabric. In addition, in order to ensure the high quality and high quality of the products, Voith Paper Fabrics only uses special monofilaments produced by the company's in-house yarn suppliers.
