Abstract

An apparatus for producing a fibrous web, in particular a tissue web, with a press zone through which the fibrous web is passed in a lying position between a circulating permeable structured belt and a circulating permeable non-structured supporting belt. A press nip is provided on a Yankee Cylinder through which the fibrous web is passed in the lying position together with the structured belt between the structured belt and the Yankee cylinder, whereby the press zone is limited on the side adjacent the supporting belt by a substantially smooth surface, and whereby the supporting belt is not brought together with the fibrous web and the structured belt until proximate to the press zone.
