Xerium Technologies Inc., Youngsville, N.C., USA, recently launched HuySpeed QS tissue felt technology. HuySpeed QS is designed specifically to reduce the startup cycle on new felts and to provide more efficient overall production on high speed tissue machines.
The combination of the felt's base and surface components enable a tissue machine to achieve full speed immediately after the startup of a new felt. In addition, HuySpeed QS technology has already proven to help reduce energy consumption along with improved tissue sheet quality. More information about HuySpeed QS technology is available online.
"We are delighted to bring our already successful QS technology to the tissue industry. This unique product concept provides enhanced felt and machine performance right from startup," said Bill Butterfield, EVP and CTO of Xerium. "HuySpeed QS helps our customers overcome the traditional slow-speed startups for new machine clothing, and we are already seeing reports with improvements in production, efficiency, and energy savings."
