Dutch term or phrase: Stofoploop
Stofoploop
In de stofoploop wordt ervoor gezorgd dat:

de vezels maximaal ontknoopt zijn, dat wil zeggen dat de vezels niet in elkaar haken. Dit gebeurt door het opwekken van turbulentie in de vezelstroom.
De verdeling van de vezelmassa over de breedte van de papiermachine egaal is.
De vezeloriëntering zo is dat het gevormde papier vierkant of juist langsgeoriënteerd is. Dit gebeurt door de snelheid van het uitstromen uit de oploopkast te variëren ten opzichte van de snelheid van het doek waarop de vezelmassa gespoten wordt.
In de stofoploop is de vezelconsistentie in water ongeveer 0,5 tot 1%.

Am I correct in thinking this should be translated as 'pulp preparation'?

"Stofoploop
Omschrijving:

De stofoploop is het deel van de papiermachine waar de dunstof (vezelbrij) op de zeef wordt gespoten. Er wordt ook op gelet dat de verdeling van de vezelbrij over de zeef egaal is.
De vezeldichtheid in water is in de stofoploop 0,5-1%."

"The purpose of the headbox is create turbulence to keep the fibers from clumping together and to uniformly distribute the slurry across the width of the wire. Wood fibers have a tendency to attract one another, forming clumps, the effect being called flocculation. Flocculation is lessened by lowering consistency and or by agitating the slurry; however, de-flocculation becomes very difficult at much above 0.5% consistency. Minimizing the degree of flocculation when forming is important to physical properties of paper.[8][9]

The consistency in the headbox is typically under 0.4% for most paper grades, with longer fibres requiring lower consistency than short fibres. Higher consistency causes more fibres to be oriented in the z direction, while lower consistency promotes fibre orientation in the x-y direction. Higher consistency promotes higher calliper (thickness) and stiffness, lower consistency promotes higher tensile and some other strength properties and also improves formation (uniformity).[8][9] Many sheet properties continue to improve down to below 0.1% consistency; however, this is an impractical amount of water to handle. (Most paper machine run a higher headbox consistency than optimum because they have been sped up over time without replacing the fan pump and headbox. There is also an economic trade off with high pumping costs for lower consistency)."
