Abstract
The invention relates to a paper machine clothing, notably an air-dry clothing (TAD clothing), in the form of a woven having a weaving design. According to the invention the relative depth of machine clothing cups which are open towards the contact surface of the paper is 20% or more, said relative cup depth being the quotient of the difference between the measurement height for which the bearing percentage is 30% and the measurement for which the bearing percentage is 60%, on the one hand, and the sum of the diameters of a warp thread and a weft, on the other hand. The measurement height “0” is the outer limit of the paper machine clothing on the paper contact surface, the bearing percentage is the projected sectional area of the threads of the woven at a given measurement height in relation to the measurement surface, the section areas being parallel to the surface of the clothing. The invention also relates to a tissue paper product which is produced with such a clothing and is especially voluminous in direction Z.
