The Sheet Former is built upon a warp resistant stainless steel frame. This robust base holds the sheet forming column and the pneumatic couching device, both located on the left hand side of the waterproof work table. The control panel, including a touch screen display, start and stop button and other important controls, is located on the right hand side. Multiple gauges enable the operator to supervise the pneumatic couching process. The sheet forming process can be performed manually or automatically. Therefore, you can find a manual operation switch next to the touch screen display that allows you to control the individual steps of the sheet forming process by hand. Additional there is built into the table a vacuum pump, which allows to suck water through the formed sheet, id the dewatering by gravitation is not good enough (for very fine grinded pulp). A water recirculation system collects the water from the former and can be used for forming another sheets. At the end of the process (maybe 10 sheets are formed) the water can be analyzed to determine, how much chemicals are bound in the sheet and how much chemicals are in the water.
