Papermakers adjust the jet-to-wire speed ratio to fine-tune the paper structure. The jet” is the narrow stream of dilute stock that comes out of the headbox slice opening. The “wire” is the continuous belt of forming fabric. Often it is possible to improve the uniformity of paper by running jet-to-wire speed ratio as one. “Rushing the sheet” means that the jet speed is higher than the wire speed. “Dragging the sheet” means that the wire speed is higher than the jet speed. Especially in the case of dragging
