Huystar FC
Huystar FC felts combine base fabrics made from robust monofilaments and batt structures engineered specifically for the most demanding fibre cement product requirements and machine conditions.
Porotwin FC
Porotwin FC felts combine base fabrics made from proprietary combination yarns engineered specifically for the most demanding machine conditions and fibre cement product requirements.
Porotherm and Porotherm Light
Producing corrugated fibre cement roofing and hand moulded special products or pipes requires a felt that is durable and imparts the proper surface texture to the product. These felts deliver outstanding interlaminar bonding. This results in excellent product stability and density. Porotherm and Porotherm Light felts are made from proprietary combination yarns that stand up to the most demanding machine conditions.
CemPress Drive Roll
CemPress polyurethane drive roll covers deliver excellent wear characteristics, even when processing the most abrasive fibre cement materials. In addition, the specially engineered compound delivers superior resistance to high pH and caustic chemical processes. Benefits include:
Exceptional abrasion resistance
Superior resistance to high pH and caustic chemical processes
Excellent operational characteristics in both low and high temperature applications
Superior tensile, tear, elongation, and resilience properties deliver extended life potential and resistance to damage
Available in extended hardness range from 50-90 Shore A
Available in plain, grooved, or drilled patterns
Composite Panel
Composite Panel
ANDRITZ also supplies a complete line of fabric technology for the composite panel sector including machines producing ceiling and floor tiles, as well as MDF boards.
Our Huycon woven designs and Huycoil assembled spiral designs are ideal solutions for these machine applications.
Glass Mat
Glass Mat
For the demanding glass mat machines, our Huyglass family of woven fabrics is ideal for the Forming and Saturator positions.
