Abstract

An apparatus and related methods for touchlessly holding down overlay paper on a lignocellulosic composite mat as the mat and overlay are loaded into a multi-level press from a matching multi-level loader cage. In several exemplary embodiments, each level of the loader cage has a pressured air plenum, pipe, or tube, with a uniform continuous opening (gap, slit) extending linearly from which pressurized air exits. Depending on the configuration, the pressured air exits in a focused, laminar flow pattern.
