Lap Formair H

This is a newly designed machine, developed for the manufacturing of airlaid nonwovens. Lap Formair
is based on a new aerodynamic fibre batt formation system, ready for subsequent needle punching
or thermobonding processes, giving the final product a fibre density which is perfectly even both
longitudinally and across the whole machine width. This machine’s extraordinary performance are
especially characterised by the possibility of processing any type of material, both fibrous and non-fibrous,
thus guaranteeing a perfectly even density also when manufacturing low weight final products (down
to 150 g/m2 weight).

Strenghts:

  • reduced production costs
  • reduced investment costs
  • reduced space occupation and energy consumptions
  • possibility of processing non cardable fibres and materials
  • extreme productive versatility in terms of processable raw materials and type of manufactured final products
  • high production quality also when manufacturing light weight products(down to 150 g/m2)

Process flow

The fiber is transported pneumatically to the feeding section consisting of a volumetric loader (01) which forms a fiber mat uniformly distributed over the working height. the material proceeds thus through an opening section (02) which feeds it to the forming chamber (03), in which the combined action of a series of distributor cylinders and the suction through the perforated belt (04) positioned at the base of the chamber guarantees a uniform distribution of the material and a perfectly horizontal stratification of the fibers. special continuous weighing systems (05) and (06) installed in and out of the formation chamber allow the control and regulation of the density of the output product, ready for the subsequent phases of thermal or mechanical bonding
