Optimization targets

In paper production, the drying process plays an important role.

In many packaging paper machines, the capacity of the dryer section is a limiting factor for increase in production. An extension of the dryer section involves long downtimes and high investment and modification cost. Due to limited space conditions, a machine extension is often not possible.

In new machines, increasing specific outputs result in higher dryer section lengths and thus larger paper machine halls.

The process
The BoostDryer features a steam-heated dryer cylinder and a pressure hood that encloses a major portion of the cylinder.

The web runs directly over the dryer cylinder and is pressed against it by the pressure hood.

A special clothing and a steel belt on top separate the web from the pressure hood.

Customer benefit:
  • Increased machine speed and output, without extending the dryer section
  • Minimal rebuild required
    • No machine extension
    • Relocating of size press and reel not necessary for increased capacity
  • New machines: Reduced machine length, while achieving the same production capacity
  • Improved paper strength or reduced starch application or saving of fibers
    • Reduced starch application, resulting in higher dry contents after the starch application unit and less water evaporation in the after-dryer section
    • Saving of raw material, resulting in less water evaporation in the pre-dryer section
  • Improved surface properties of paper
  • Steam used as heating medium


Currently, limited product release for BoostDryer.
