fourdrinier

Paul Fourdrinier also founded a stationery business which was carried on by his sons and grandsons at least until 1811.

A second headbox may be added to a conventional fourdrinier to put a different fibre blend on top of a base layer.

The original fourdrinier forming section used a horizontal drainage area, referred to as the drainage table.

The Fourdrinier Machine is the basis for most modern papermaking, and it has been used in some variation since its conception.

There are also machines with entire fourdrinier sections mounted above a traditional fourdrinier.

The first Fourdrinier continuous papermaking machine is installed in Hertfordshire, England.

Henry Fourdrinier, the descendant of Huguenot settlers in England, founded the modern paper industry.

Fourdrinier may refer to:

A modification to the basic fourdrinier table by adding a second wire on top of the drainage table is known as a top wire former.

Fluff pulp is normally made rolls (reels) on a drying machine (a simplified Fourdrinier machine).

Louis-Nicolas Robert, the inventor of the original Fourdrinier machine for production of continuous rolls of paper, was a resident.

Key inventors include Henry Fourdrinier, Heinrich Voelter and Carl Daniel Ekman, among others.

Didot sent his brother-in-law, John Gamble, to meet Sealy and Henry Fourdrinier, stationers of London, who agreed to finance the project.

The entry for "Henry Fourdrinier" in Volume 20 of Dictionary of National Biography makes a brief description of the nature of their innovation:

The paper machine is known as a Fourdrinier after the financiers, brothers Sealy and Henry Fourdrinier, who were stationers in London.

In 1801-2 Donkin was entrusted with the construction of a prototype of a paper-making machine, the famous Fourdrinier machine, the perfection of which had caused some considerable problems.

Eventually the consumer products were phased out and the mill downsized to a single Fourdrinier paper machine (260" (660 cm) wide), which produced linerboard and corrugating medium for corrugated boxes.

Two of these paintings (the Algerine Pirates and Sweet William's Farewell, both engraved by Paul Fourdrinier) appear to have been on display prior to the war with Spain, which began in 1739.

In March 1801, after demonstrating continuous rolls of paper from Essonne, John Gamble agreed to share the London patent application with brothers Sealy and Henry Fourdrinier, who ran a leading stationery house.

The first mechanical invention to revolutionize paper making was the fourdrinier machine invented in 1799, in France, by Nicholas Louis Robert and perfected by Henry Fourdrinier and his brother, Sealey.

Wodehouse's maternal grandmother, Louisa Elizabeth Fourdrinier, was the daughter of Sealey Fourdrinier, who invented the paper machine (also known as the Fourdrinier machine) alongside his brother, Henry.

The Fourdrinier uses a specially woven plastic fabric mesh conveyor belt, known as a wire as it was once woven from bronze, in the wet end to create a continuous paper web transforming a source of plant fibre, usually wood pulp, into a final paper product.

It includes the 19th century Holy Trinity church designed by Sir George Gilbert Scott, and Moore Mill featuring two water wheels, (not to be confused with Henry Fourdrinier's Frogmore Mill in Apsley, Hemel Hempstead).

With the advent of steam-driven paper making machines such as the Fourdrinier in the 19th century, in conjunction with the advent of the steam driven rotary printing press, wood based paper caused a major transformation of the 19th century economy and society in industrialized countries.

Paul Fourdrinier, engraver and printseller, was born in 1698 in Groningen in the Netherlands, the son of Jacques Fourdrinier and his wife, Jeanne Theroude, Huguenot refugees from Dieppe, Normandy.
