Based on vacuum requirement and dwell time, 2 or 3 ceramic blades make single or double slot with 10 to 16 mm. width. Machine speed determines to use either Zr-Oxide or Si-Nitride blade. Thermal shock resistance and edge toughness are selection criteria.
Efficient dewatering
Longer felt life
Improved cleaning performance
PressMaster
Drilled cover in Zr-Oxide gives gentle dewatering due to longer dwell time. A uhle box with 5-row PressMaster (~ 175 mm wide) can generally replace a 2-slot + 1-slot uhle box.
Up to 50% more dwell time
Up to 50% less vacuum; save energy
Gentle on felt surface; less abrasion of felt

KF 35 Blade Holder
The solid stainless steel blade holder allows simple blade changing, even under difficult conditions
Micro-adjustment screw for precise blade profiling.
Low-cost model for simple applications.
Suitable for use in very harsh environment.
Extremely durable.
Superflex Blade Holders
The James ross Superflex doctor blade holder provides an exact and uniform doctors contact pressure over surface.
Uniform and precise contact pressure over the entire roll surface.
Increased service life of blade and roll.
No adjustment of doctor blade holder required.
Available as replacement part or upgrade to existing doctor.
Double Doctor
Two Superflex doctor holders are integrated into a single doctor back. This type of doctor is supplied for suction press rolls, and top press rolls. Doctors on suction rolls are no oscillated. Two doctors ensure perfectly clean roll surface and improvement is dryness after press. The unique design of blade holder prevents the holder from contacting the roll surface when the doctor is loaded even if there is no doctor blade or the blade is completely worn out.
Twin Doctor (For Centre Press Rolls)
Specially designed twin doctor to prevent paper passing, clean press roll and to increase dryness after the press. The two doctors are connected at both the ends making an open space in-between for the paper web to fall under the press. The unique design of blade holder prevents the holder from contacting the roll surface when the doctor is loaded even if there is no doctor blade or the blade is completely worn out.
Independent adjustment of both the doctor in all directions.
Doctor blade holder allows end as well as front removal of blades.
User friendly maintenance and set-up requirements.
