MACHINE AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING A FIBROUS MATERIAL WEB

The invention relates to a machine for producing or treating a fibrous material web (4), in particular a paper, cardboard, or tissue web, comprising a drying section (1), which comprises at least two successive double-row drying groups (2, 3) with drying cylinders (2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 3.1, 3.2), and a tail cutter for forming a transfer strip (4.1), wherein a separating point (5) is formed between the at least two double-row drying groups (2, 3), and a transfer device (6) is provided for transferring the transfer strip (4.1) from the end of the first double-row drying group (2) to the second double-row drying group (3). The invention is characterized in that at least the transfer strip (4.1) is guided into a waste discharge device (12) arranged below the separating point (5), and the transfer device (6) comprises a guide element (7) with a longitudinal direction (7.7) running substantially perpendicularly and is arranged in the region of the separating point (5) above the waste discharge device (12) in a pivotal manner about a pivot axis (7.3) such that the transfer strip (4.1) is transferred to the second double-row drying group (3) by pivoting the guide element (7) from a rest position (7.5) to a transfer position (7.6). The invention also relates to a method for guiding a fibrous material web in a machine for producing or treating the fibrous material web.
