This study shows that it is possible to manufacture moulded products from fibrous pulp at the laboratory scale using the Rapid-Köthen apparatus (found in almost every paper laboratory) and a special sieve form set. This process includes the design of elements of the mould forming sets by special software, production of these elements using a numerically controlled tool machine, the assembly of the sieve form, its installation in the Rapid-Köthen apparatus, and the forming and drying of the pulp product.
