Abstract: The invention relates to vacuum equipment for a fiber web machine. The vacuum equipment includes a frame (13) arranged to be supported to the fiber web machine. The vacuum equipment also includes a wearing construction (15) adapted to the frame (13) and arranged partially open on the surface by means of several openings (14) for extending a vacuum effect out from within the frame (13) and further to a fabric (16) included in the fiber web machine and set in contact with the wearing construction (15). The wearing construction (15) is a plate construction (17), the raw material thickness s of which is equal to or smaller than the distance x between the opposite edges (18, 19) defining the opening (14). The invention also relates to a fiber web machine provided with vacuum equipment.

Abstract: A static dewatering element (10) for a web forming machine has a thermally sprayed coating (26) manufactured of powder particles (34). The powder particles (34) are agglomerates composed of primary particles (36). The average size of the primary particles (36) is smaller than 0.5 ?m. The invention also relates to a method for covering a static dewatering element designed for a web forming machine.

Abstract: A dewatering member for a paper or board machine has a composite body (13) and a hard surface layer (12). The composite body (13) is manufactured in a pultrusion process. An adhesion layer (11) is formed on desired outer surfaces of the composite body (13) such that reinforcements passed to the adhesion layer (11) have been passed to the pultrusion process through a separate resin bath, to which an adhesion improving agent has been added such that the hard surface layer (12) can be applied directly onto it, and reinforcements forming the inner portion of the composite body (13) have been passed to the pultrusion process through a second resin bath. The composite body (13) is coated with a hard coating layer (12) produced by thermal spraying, and the coating (12) is ground.
