ABSTRACT:
Press arrangement for a machine for treating a fibrous pulp sheet. The press arrangement may include a shoe press roll having a flexible press sleeve, a mating roll having a mating roll axis, and a press nip extended in a run direction of the fibrous pulp sheet and formed between the shoe press roll and the mating roll. The press arrangement may also include a non-rotating carrier substantially extending across a machine width inside the flexible press sleeve, a press unit including at least one press shoe supported on the non-rotating carrier via at least one associated force element. The press unit exerts a force against the flexible press roll sleeve. The flexible press sleeve may be arranged to circulate around the non-rotating carrier and to be guided around the at least one press shoe in a press nip area. A portion of the flexible press sleeve, located outside of the press nip area, may circulate in a substantially circular-cylindrical path around a sleeve axis. A center plane of a resulting force exerted by the press unit may be positionally offset a distance in the run direction from a plane including the mating roll axis and the sleeve axis, and the press shoe may be positioned substantially symmetrical to the plane including the mating roll axis and the sleeve axis.
