| As the pulp travels down the screen, excess
water is drained away leaving a crude paper sheet called web. The web is
then squeezed between rollers to remove remaining water and ensure uniform
thickness and smoothness. Finally, the web is run through a series of heated
rollers to remove any remaining water. The finished paper is spooled onto
'parent rolls', which can be 30 feet wide and weigh 25 tons. The parent
rolls are run through a machine called a slitter which cuts them into
smaller, more manageable rolls. Now the paper is ready to be shipped for use
by a variety of businesses for products we all use everyday. |
