is designed to impart a series of high frequency pulses into the sheet. The concept is based on the proven theory that the size of the fiber floc created in a sheet is proportional to the scale of the stock activity generated. Finer scale stock activity results in smaller floc size. The design of the blade allows for very high pulse frequencies (in excess of 120 Hz) to be achieved, even at speeds below 1000 fpm.

MultiPulse Foil™ FEATURES and BENEFITS

  • Increase pulse frequency to decrease fiber flock size
  • Improve formation
  • Increase drainage
  • Improve MD and CD strength properties
  • Improve fines distribution
  • Break up streaks for improved profiles
  • Improve smoothness
  • Low Risk - low capital investment
  • Available in UHMW poly or poly with ceramic insert
Coldwater also can make all designs of foils, forming board sets and uhle box and flatbox covers.
