The document discusses nips, which are the pressure points between two rollers pressed together in textile processing. Uniform nips are important for producing uniform products. There are two broad classifications of nips - low squeeze and high squeeze - depending on the hardness of the rubber surface. Various methods are used to measure and ensure uniform nip pressure across the width, including static methods like carbon paper and electronic sensors, and dynamic methods like pickup percentage. Crownning, or providing a curved surface to the rollers, is used to compensate for inevitable bending and maintain a uniform nip line. Different roller designs and materials can be used to increase nip efficiency and squeeze more moisture from fabrics.
