The EdgeSpreader™ system has a built in hinge for easy adjustment in and out of the stock stream.
This enables control of waves or disturbances produced by the headbox, as well as control of the weight on the
edges of the sheet. The result is improved basis weight, moisture, and TSO angle profiles.
The system creates a perfect seal against the forming fabric through use of a Teflon insert that is adjustable on the run.
The insert is positioned at a 90 degree angle to the forming fabric which allows a good seal, with very little pressure.
As a result, the insert wears longer, does not fray, cause tears or fiber build up, and will not wear the edges of the
forming fabric.
