More Information
Summary:A system (10) and method for transferring a continuously advancing paper web from a dryer (12) to a reel section is provided. The system includes a first fabric (20) defining a first moving conveyor. The first fabric (20) may be a permeable fabric, which is positioned downstream from the dryer (12). A second fabric (30) which may also be permeable and defines a second moving conveyor (30), is also included. The first moving conveyor (20) overlaps the second moving conveyor (30) for a predetermined distance, and the first (20) and second (30) moving conveyors are configured to receive the paper web (18) between the conveyors. A lead-in roll (124) is rotatably disposed against the first felt conveyor (20) such that a draw (D) is formed between the dryer (12) and the lead-in roll (124).
