Abstract:
A laminated clothing for a papermaking or cellulose manufacturing machine, said clothing having in its thickness direction a first layer and, laminated therewith, a second layer, each of said first and second layers having an inclined direction-defined thread system, said thread systems of said first and second layers being inclined relative to the machine direction (MD) of said clothing and relative to one another, wherein said first layer and said second layer are fashioned from an endless band, said endless band being flattened to produce said first layer and said second layer and two edge folds extending transversely of the machine direction (MD), said flattened endless band being doubled and said two edge folds coupled to each other, whereby said first layer and said second layer are an outer part and an inner part of said laminated clothing, said endless band having a direction-defined thread system, said direction-defined thread system being inclined relative to the machine direction (MD) and, owing to said flattening and doubling of said band, forming said direction-defined thread systems, inclined relative to each other, of said first layer and said second layer, said two edge folds being coupled to each other by two rows of seam loops, one of said rows being on each of said edge folds, said seam loops being adapted to form, together with a pintle wire, an openable seam of the clothing, each row of seam loops being formed separately from said band material from a thread separate from the band material.
