CONT

Sur la plupart des machines à papier, on regroupe les cylindres dans trois ou cinq sections de feutres indépendantes dont on peut régler séparément la vitesse pour maintenir la feuille en tension entre deux sections et compenser son retrait. On installe des rouleaux positionneurs et des rouleaux tendeurs dans chaque boucle du feutre.
