Method and machine for manufacturing paper products using fourdrinier forming

A wet end for a Fourdrinier Machine comprising:

• means for initially controlling the orientation of fibers in a paper web deposited onto a forming fabric by operating a forming fabric in a rush, drag, or square mode to align a majority of said fibers in either a machine direction or cross machine direction;
• means for individually raising and lowering a plurality of height adjustable blades either to create turbulence and high water removal from the paper web or to create turbulence and retard water removal from the paper web;
• and,
• means for individually adjusting a plurality of angle adjustable blades either to create turbulence and high water removal from the paper web or to create turbulence and retard water removal from the paper web.

A wet end for a Fourdrinier machine comprising:

• I. a forming board section having a forming board lead blade that is stationary and is arranged substantially near a breast roll;
• II. a hydrofoil section comprising:
• a. a plurality of height adjustable blades and
• b. a plurality of angle adjustable blades, the plurality of height adjustable blades and the plurality of angle adjustable blades are adjustable to create turbulence and promote water drainage when paper fibers in a paper web are aligned in a machine direction, and are adjustable to create turbulence and retard water removal when paper fibers in a paper web are aligned in a cross-machine direction;
• and
• III. a low-vacuum section comprising:
• a plurality of height adjustable blades, and
• a plurality of angle adjustable blades,
• Wherein the plurality of height adjustable blades and the plurality of angle adjustable blades are adjusted to create turbulence and promote water drainage when paper fibers in a paper web are aligned in a machine direction, and are adjusted to create turbulence and retard water removal when paper fibers in a paper web aligned in a cross-machine direction.

A wet end for a Fourdrinier comprising:

• and,
• III. a low-vacuum section comprising:
• A. vacuum assisted drainage elements;
• and
• B. a plurality of height adjustable blades;
• wherein the plurality of height adjustable blades are adjustable to create turbulence and water drainage when paper fibers in a paper webbing are aligned in a machine direction, and are adjustable to create turbulence and retard water removal when paper fibers in a paper webbing are aligned in a cross-machine direction.
