Abstract

A papermakers fabric, and particularly a corrugator fabric, has a flat-woven, multilayer structure and is brought into endless form by a joint or seam arranged obliquely relative to the running direction of the fabric and at the roller side thereof. The angular disposition of the seam reduces noise levels, sheet marking and web breakage.
