The fabric press is another development of transverse press which is used more in Europe than in North America.... A multiple-weave, non-compressible fabric belt passes through the nip between the felt and the rubber-covered roll to provide void volume to receive the expressed water. Water is removed from the fabric by passing it over a suction box on the return run. The shrink-sleeve press is a simplified modification of the fabric press, utilizing only a non-compressible fabric jacket or sleeve which is shrunk over the press roll to provide void volume. 1, record 2, English, - shrink%2Dsleeve%20press
