The global paper industry is highly demanding, and the efficiency of the paper machine plays a critical role in achieving operational excellence. For paper mills, choosing the right paper machine clothing (PMC) is essential to ensure optimal production and paper quality. HEZER Belt, with over 22 years of experience, has built a reputation for providing top-quality custom paper machine clothing solutions to paper mills across the globe.
In this blog, we will explore the importance of custom paper machine clothing, why HEZER Belt is a leader in this field, and how our innovative solutions can benefit your paper mill. We’ll also discuss the different types of PMC and the various ways our custom solutions can improve your paper production.
What is Custom Paper Machine Clothing?
Paper machine clothing is a collective term for the fabrics used in the papermaking process, which include forming fabrics, press fabrics, and dryer fabrics. These fabrics are crucial in controlling the flow of water, heat, and air throughout the papermaking process. Proper selection of paper machine clothing can directly impact the efficiency of your paper machine and the quality of the final paper product.
Custom paper machine clothing, in particular, refers to PMC that is specifically designed and tailored to meet the unique needs of a paper mill’s production line. This includes selecting materials, designs, and properties that align with the production process, machine speed, and specific paper grades being produced.
Why Choose Custom Paper Machine Clothing?
The choice of paper machine clothing can significantly affect several factors, including:
-
Product Quality: Well-designed PMC can enhance the smoothness, texture, and strength of the paper.
-
Efficiency: Properly designed PMC can reduce energy consumption and increase production efficiency by optimizing dewatering, pressing, and drying.
-
Durability: Durable PMC reduces the frequency of fabric replacement, lowering maintenance costs and minimizing downtime.
-
Cost Savings: Custom PMC can help streamline the production process, improving overall cost-efficiency.
Given these benefits, opting for custom paper machine clothing from HEZER Belt can provide significant advantages to your paper mill.

The HEZER Belt Custom PMC Range
HEZER Belt provides a wide range of custom paper machine clothing solutions, which are designed for various stages of the papermaking process:
1. Forming Fabrics
Forming fabrics are used in the forming section of the paper machine. They play a critical role in the formation of the paper sheet by providing a stable surface for the pulp to drain and form the paper web. At HEZER Belt, our forming fabrics are designed to offer optimal drainage, sheet formation, and fabric longevity.
2. Press Fabrics
Press fabrics are employed in the pressing section of the paper machine to remove moisture from the paper web. These fabrics also improve the strength and smoothness of the paper. HEZER Belt’s press fabrics are engineered for superior moisture removal and performance, ensuring that paper strength is maximized.
3. Dryer Fabrics
Dryer fabrics are essential in the drying section of the paper machine. These fabrics help transfer heat to the paper and improve drying efficiency. Our dryer fabrics are designed to enhance heat transfer, minimize energy consumption, and improve overall paper quality.
