ABSTRACT:
An arrangement for impingement drying and/or through-drying of a paper or material web in which the web is dried by blowing hot air and/or superheated steam from an impingement drying and/or through-drying dryer in a direction substantially perpendicular to the web, and the web runs on support of a wire or equivalent past the dryer. In the area of the dryer, the web and wire are supported from the opposite side of the wire, opposite in relation to the web, by blowings produced from one or more vacuum blow boxes substantially across the entire width of the web. The outlet direction of the blowings may be substantially the same as the running direction of the drying wire and as such, steam and/or air is/are ejected out of the space between the drying wire and the wall placed in connection with the blow boxes that produce the blowings. A second set of blowings from the blow boxes may be blown in the direction opposite to the running direction of the wire so as to seal the area of vacuum between the wire and the blow box. Also, the blowings may be arranged to reduce the pressure in a gap formed at an edge of the blow box and thereby maintain the web on the wire.
