Abstract: A process for producing a filter with multiple folds from an aqueous fiber mixture that is applied to a porous form, in which a paper-like filter mat is produced on the form under the action of pressure, and it is carried out without mechanical deformation of the rough casting. This is achieved pursuant to the invention by the fact that the aqueous fiber mixture is deposited on the porous form having the contour of the filter, from loading chambers separate from one another, and the filter is built up of adjacent fold sections in layers on the form by separate introduction of the fiber mixture to the fold sections connected to one another.
Abstract: A method and apparatus for use in the manufacture of improved molded pulp products are disclosed wherein foraminous molds disposed over openings in a liquid impervious belt are moved beneath the surface of a flowing furnish and suction is applied to draw liquid through the molds and deposit a layer of pulp on each mold. Thereafter, the pulp deposit on each mold is simultaneously subjected to a generally uniform pressing with a second belt and suction which forms a smooth exposed surface on the pulp deposit and removes a portion of the liquid therein.
