Abstract
The invention relates to a method and means for removing water from a web in a press of a papermaking machine. The web to be dried is passed between press felts through a press nip formed between press rolls. A resilient mat or the like, which is in contact with one of the press felts, is also passed through the press nip. In order to produce a hydraulic counterpressure at the nip, a wire is passed between the resilient mat and one of the press rolls and water is sprayed on the wire immediately before the press nip for producing a water cushion in the section of the wire lying between the press roll and the resilient mat. The wire is in this case formed so that water cannot move in the longitudinal or vertical direction of the wire.
