throughdryer fabric or replacement of the felt with a throughdryer fabric not shown the yankee or the throughdryer serves to partially dry the dewatered web to a consistency of preferably from about 50 to about 70 percent the partially dried web is then transferred to a coarse mesh fabric 41 with the assistance of vacuum suction roll 42 and wet strained using vacuum source 8 optionally the web can be sandwiched between fabric 41 and another coarse fabric 41 34 and further wet strained using a second vacuum source 8 34 the second vacuum source can be applied to the web simultaneously with vacuum source 8 to simultaneously act upon both sides of the web or the second vacuum source can be applied upstream or downstream of the first vacuum source to sequentially act upon opposite sides of the web in any event the application of two or more vacuum straining sources is expected to provide more uniform debonding of the web after wet straining the web is transferred to a yankee dryer 14 39 for final drying and creped to yield a creped tissue web fig5 illustrates another embodiment of this invention in which two throughdryers are used to dry the web shown is the headbox 1 which deposits the aqueous suspension of papermaking fibers onto the surface of forming.
