A one-page French encyclopedia entry on the calender (calandre), a machine of three cylinders, two of pasteboard and one of metal, used to press, smooth and lustre fabrics. It explains how the cloth passes between the rollers, and distinguishes table calenders from cylinder calenders, which are heated with steam or hot water. It also notes American four-roller calenders used to roll vulcanized rubber into sheets. An engraving shows a hand-operated calender with three rollers.
