A ceramic tip creping blade is used in tissue production to add bulk, stretch, absorbency, and softness. A doctor or creping blade holder is used to load the blade against the Yankee, the heart of the tissue-making process. A ceramic tip creping blade helps create a smoother surface, which can lead to a finer crepe and better handfeel.
Unlike other ceramic creping blades, CeraEdge™ creping blades break in quickly and have a no-chip ceramic tip, making them an optimal choice for providing long life for tissue machine productivity. The CeraEdge S blade is recommended for applications where tissue softness is the main priority. The CeraEdge L blade is recommended when maximizing blade life is priority. Both CeraEdge blades provide stable performance for tissue production, are safer to the Yankee surface than traditional ceramic blades, and produce less dusting and linting due to a smoother wear edge.
