Paper machine forming fabrics are designed to retain as much fiber and other furnish components as possible, but allowing water to drain through them as quickly as possible. 

Paper machine forming fabrics are typically produced from monofilament strands or yarns that are woven together in a pattern that can be classified by their fabric style (or weave); surface topography mesh, count, and diameter; and air permeability. This module discusses how each of these characteristics affect final sheet quality.

Multi-shed paper machine forming fabrics was first introduced in 1830 when two cylinder formers were combined to produce a two-ply sheet. Equipment designs have changed over the years, however, the multi-shed cylinder former design is still in use.

Multi-shed sheets can contain a different stock mixture in each layer, which has several potential benefits, including those related to fiber costs, machine speeds, and sheet properties. Therefore, multi-shed paper machine forming fabrics has expanded from mostly paperboard grades to tissue and other paper grades.
