Abstract: A flexible roll up industrial door which includes a multilayered door closure fabric. The fabric includes conductive reinforcing yarns embedded within the layers of the fabric such that the conductive reinforcing yarns do not rise to the surface of the fabric. The embedding of the conductive reinforcing yarns within the multilayered fabric serves to both protect and at least partially conceal the conductive reinforcing yarns.

Abstract: An improved textile dryer has a dryer fabric for transporting a textile through at least one through-air drying zone. The fabric is woven from synthetic monofilament yarns. The monofilament yarn dimensions and fabric weave pattern are selected to provide permeability greater than 900 CFM and initial tensile strength measured in the machine direction of greater than about 100 PLI. The monofilament yarns are formed from polymers which provide high thermal and hydrolytic stability, thereby enabling the dryer fabric to maintain strength for extended use in the textile drying environment. Preferred monofilament yarns are made of unalloyed polyphenylene sulfide.

Abstract: The present invention provides a belt filter press fabric for supporting pressing and draining moisture from a moisture laden web in a press having an inlet end, an outlet end and at least one high pressure nip. The fabric includes machine direction monofilament yarns having selected load bearing, dimensional stability and compressible characteristics. Means for protecting the machine direction yarns from compressive deterioration, such as fibrillation, are provided by interweaving the machine direction yarns with cross machine direction yarns the majority of which have a compressibility characteristic which is greater than the characteristic of the machine direction yarns.

Abstract: A corrugation machine includes a woven papermakers fabric. The fabric has at least four layers of bulky yarns interwoven with monofilament yarns. The yarns and weave patterns are selected such that the fabric has a caliper of at least 0.2 inches, a weight of between 10 to 15 ounces per square foot and a permeability of at least 25 CFM.
