The most advanced press fabric family
Infinity press fabrics
The most advanced press fabric family
Voith’s Infinity press fabrics are designed for the most challenging applications in today’s world of papermaking. A full line of advanced press fabric designs suit every machine configuration and customer expectation.
Infinity press fabrics have an especially uniform, high-quality base fabric that results in a laminated structure with the ability to maintain void volume throughout operation. Infinity is the best choice for your paper machine.
Benefits
- Steady performance over lifetime, reliable outputs
- Increased fiber anchorage
- Opportunity for optimized nip dewatering
- Reduces fiber loss even at the end of the felt life
- Part of AdvancedPRODUCTS
Fast installation: engineered seam zone
Infinity products can be ordered with or without a seam. The Infinity seam loops are perfectly formed with identical loop length roundness and spacing.
Better sheet quality: pressure uniformity
The base offers a high degree of contact points and base uniformity.
Clean run: high compressibility
The Infinity base interaction allows for high compressibility and resiliency to improve dewatering and keep the fabric clean.
Perfect fit: extraordinary width stability
Attributable to the manufacturing process, the base fabric provides excellent in-plane stability.
Quick start-up: steady state operation
Desired machine speeds are reached faster due to the laminated structure of the fabric.
Fiber anchorage: cabled yarn
The fiber anchorage is highly improved thanks to the new material and technology. It can be used as seamed and endless and has the most efficient twist level in the base fabric with mono loops in the engineered seam area.

Infinity
Infinity
The most multifarious press felt
Infinity is a full line of endless and seam press fabrics for highest performance on paper machines.
The high-quality base fabric of Infinity is woven in an especially uniform method. Additionally, the laminate structure retains its open volume during the entire running time due to a high level of compressibility and better rebound behavior in comparison with conventional press fabrics.
The characteristics increase the dewatering performance and reduce dirt deposits and fiber loss over lifetime.
Infinity is the most advanced seam concept on the market! The loop size in combination with the Voith-developed anchorage yarn and carefully sized seam closure pintle result in the lowest potential seam marks.
Infinity ToughLine
Infinity ToughLine
State-of-the-art press felt for board and packaging
Designed especially for the most challenging applications, our Infinity ToughLine can withstand the most extreme conditions.
It offers the void volume the customer needs for the toughest paper machine environments. The press fabric can be supplied as an endless or a seamed design. Ours is the most advanced seam concept on the market, with extremely uniform loops that are more open, making installations easier and faster than ever before.
ToughLine is available for all Infinity fabrics and creates excellent compressibility resistance through its laminated structure. In conclusion, Infinity ToughLine delivers a reliable outcome throughout the fabric lifetime.
Infinity FineLine
Infinity FineLine
The finest seam on the market
Infinity FineLine has the finest loop size on the market and simultaneously offers superior seamability due to the engineered seam zone developed and patented by Voith.
It gives the possibility to use seamed products even for the most sensitive paper grades and leaves nearly no marks. Due to the reduced yarn diameter, the press felt becomes more energy efficient.
Infinity KenosLine
Infinity KenosLine
The innovative high void volume press fabric
Machine dewatering is maximized and water savings are achieved by maintained void volume due to the innovative modular double-layer structure built into the Infinity family press fabric designs.
Infinity KenosLine incorporates a new multi-dimensional base component with each base containing large diameter robust yarns in combination with a double-layer weave, supporting strength and durability for an increased open press fabric structure.
Infinity KenosLine is also very dimensionally stable in low pH, high temperature conditions, exhibiting additional benefits such as excellent life, water savings and a steady production output on which the customer can rely.
Voith offers the four-layer Infinity KenosLine with a single robust seam and in an endless variation. The modular structure of the fabric allows it to be tailored precisely to the customer requirements.
Upgrade your press fabrics
All Infinity designs are available with our efficiency add-ons
Our modular Efficiency Add-Ons for press fabrics address different requirements in paper production and increase the efficiency and/or performance of our felts.
- +Up guarantees a smoother and especially faster startup performance. These positive aspects result in increased production and stable running conditions.
- +Peak technology is a unique Voith developed application of elastomer material for press fabrics. With +Peak, the felt does not permanently deform. This guarantees more resilience and a maintained caliper and void for consistent overall efficiency. Additionally, +Peak will help to achieve great lifetimes.
- +Pro has an excellent, smooth and non-marking premium surface with high wear resistance and stable running conditions. These improvements guarantee high-quality paper with best printability properties.
- +Top was developed to supply an optimized seam package to ensure best paper quality and significantly less seam marks.
- +VMax incorporates a new multi-dimensional base component with alternating dynamic filaments to support strength and stability for an increased open press fabric structure.
Our Infinity family is part of Voith’s AdvancedPRODUCTS
In addition, our Infinity family is part of Voith’s AdvancedPRODUCTS, which means that perfectly fitting products are available to improve the papermaking process and maximize savings.
Engineered for success
Voith provides fast and easy seaming as a result of Infinity seam loops, which are perfectly formed with identical loop length, roundness and spacing. Infinity scores big with high efficiencies in decreasing installation time and time reqiuremented for overhead crane usage.
