Description

Now lets see the pulp made into paper. First, it must be separated into its millions and billions of tiny, individual fibers. For that purpose it goes to the beaters where the revolving beater wheel separates the fibers, then thoroughly beats and hydrates each one. The proper chemicals are added here, and color, too, when needed.
