the conditions within headbox 12 blades 32 are angled with relatively sharp edges as shown in fig2 and are preferably formed from hollow square tubing i e tubing square in cross section as shown in fig3 each support plate 30 includes a plurality of radially disposed cutouts 34 along its circumference into which blades 32 are attached as by welding by attaching one corner of square tubing blade 32 toward the center of support plate 30 an opposite corner of square tubing blade 32 is pointed radially outward thereby forming an outward sharp edge which when rotated increases fluid shear and turbulence within headbox 12 support plates 30 also include through openings 36 which are utilized to equalize pressure within distributor roll 10 these openings 36 in support plates 30 also equalize pressure within headbox 12 which is important adjacent to outlet 18 to wit this equalization of pressure within headbox caused by openings 36 ensures that no streaks will be formed in the fiber slurry exiting outlet 18 as shown in fig2 distributor roll 10 is formed in a cylindrical fashion with two support plates 30 forming the axial end plates of the cylinder while a plurality of other support plates 30 are placed therealong interior to axial end plates 30 as indicated in fig2 chambers between support plates 30 within distributor roll 10 are labeled p1 p2 and p3 each of the support plates 30 at the axial ends of distributor roll 10 are provided with a stub shaft 38 one of the stub shafts 38 is connected to a gear or chain drive a motor not shown is connected.
