Xerium Introduces Maximus Press Felt Technology Portfolio

 
Xerium Technologies, Inc. (Youngsville, N.C., USA), a provider of industrial consumable products and services, recently introduced Maximus. The company touted late this past week a totally new portfolio of press felt technology for today’s most demanding press positions.

Maximus’ single-base structure design with lower fabric caliper seeks to deliver immediate start-up without the typical long break-in periods often required for conventional technology.

In addition, its innovative drainage channels and special warp-bound weave concept provide maximum dimensional stability and compaction resistance which ensures high-performance dewatering, longer running life, and excellent end-product quality. Maximus technology is ideal for machines producing containerboard, packaging, and graphical paper grades.

"Maximus is already producing great operational results on the most demanding machines in the world," said Bill Butterfield, EVP and CTO of Xerium. "We are delighted to see our customers experiencing tangible financial benefits from this new product portfolio with improved machine performance, enhanced operating range and overall lower cost-per-ton."

Additional details are available at the company's website.
