Abstract: A method for manufacturing multilayer board in which the pulp suspension forming a surface layer (12) is fed onto the horizontal section of a first, inner wire (1). The pulp suspension forming an intermediate layer (11) is supplied onto said web layer, which is already formed, in or in front of a tapering gap (6) constituted by the first wire and a second, outer wire (4). Both of the wires and the web layers (11, 12) between them are guided over a curved surface (3). After this the first wire and both of the web layers are guided against a third wire (8) onto the horizontal section of which the pulp suspension forming the other surface layer (13) is supplied. The consistency of the pulp suspension forming the intermediate layer (11) is remarkably higher than that of the pulp suspensions forming the surface layers (12, 13).

Abstract: An apparatus for affecting a web drained on a wire, comprising a lower wire which runs as an endless loop; disposed transverse members which supporting the lower wire, disposed at a distance from each other; an upper wire which runs as an endless loop and presses the web formed on the lower wire in the area between the supporting members. Inside the upper wire loop there is disposed a dewatering shoe which is in contact with the upper wire, and a roll which together with the dewatering shoe form a flow channel for leading upwards the water pressed out.
