paper term
A process for finishing fabrics in which such special effects as high luster, glazing, embossing, and moiré are produced
A process for finishing fabrics in which such special effects as high luster, glazing, embossing, and moiré are produced
the process of running paper between polished steel rolls on the paper machine to produce a desired smoothness Uncoated paper is calendered in this sequence from roughest to smoothest: Vellum, Antique, Wove, Smooth (Note: Superior smoothness and gloss can also be accomplished off machine by supercalender equipment )
To press or smooth material between rollers

A fabric finishing process that creates high luster, glazing and moiré effects
A process for finishing fabrics in which such special effects as high luster, glazing, embossing, and moiré are produced
A mechanical finishing process for fabrics to produce special effects such as high luster, glazing and moiré Fabric is passed between heated rolls under pressure
Process in which untreated paper is passed between two rolls at very high pressure to give the paper a glazed finish
process through which paper is progressively compacted and smoothed by being squeezed between large, cast-iron rollers on the papermaking machine
Process of smoothing and compressing a material (notably paper) during production by passing a continuous sheet through a number of pairs of heated rolls. The rolls in combination are called calenders; they are made of hardened steel or steel covered with fiber. In paper production, they typically exert a pressure of 500 lbs per linear in. (89 kg per cm). Coated papers are calendered to obtain a smooth, glossy finish. Calendering is also widely used in the manufacture of textiles, coated fabrics, and plastic sheeting
(1) a finishing process that flattens one or both sides of a screen mesh reducing mesh thickness and opening size; (2) a way of manufacturing plastic sheets by first converting the resins into a dough like mass then passing it between heated pressure rollers to form a sheet with a glossy or textured surface; (3) a method of producing a very high gloss surface on paper stock by passing the sheet between a series of pressure rollers
A process where a warm doughy mass of plastics material is passed between a series of rollers and emerges as flat film or sheet
{i} act of pressing or smoothing material by running it through a calender
In papermaking, the process of passing paper between the calender rolls to increase the paper's smoothness
The process to obtain calender finish (ref "Calender Finish")
A process of passing cloth between rollers (or "calendars"), usually under carefully controlled heat and pressure, to produce a variety of surface textures or effects in fabric
A specific process used to manufacture some membranes such as PVC
