OptiFlo II TIS Headbox

Designed for quality and productivity
One of the most critical components on a tissue machine is the headbox. A properly functioning headbox enhances tissue makers’ ability to produce various tissue grades at their desired level of quality.
Optimal formation and basis weight profiling
Valmet guarantees optimal formation and CD basis weight profiles in all of the OptiFlo II TIS headboxes to provide tissue makers with;
- Operational and quality improvements
- The option of low or high consistencies into the headbox, low for production of top-of-the line grades, or high consistencies to reduce energy consumption, a choice that minimizes pumping energy
- Superior base paper properties
- Uniform fiber distribution – a necessity for gaining tensile efficiency
- Greater opportunity to satisfy consumers’ esthetic requirements for tissues such as touch, softness and appearance
- Capability of producing within a wide range of basis weights
- Excellent layering capability giving tissue makers the opportunity to put bulk and softness where they want it
- The option of profiling with automatic dilution system
- The option of one, two or three layer applications
- Best possible formation
- Lower electric energy consumption
- Improved basis weight profiles
- Excellent layering, profiling and jet setting capabilities
