Production Equipment
Leather production involves a variety of equipment used for different stages of processing. Here are some common types of leather production equipment:
1. Drums: Used for processes such as soaking, dehairing, and tanning of leather, where mechanical action and chemical treatments are applied to soften the leather and remove unwanted parts.
2. Fleshing Machines: Used to remove flesh and subcutaneous tissue from raw hides, preparing them for further processing.
3. Splitting Machines: Used to split the leather into different layers, often for making double skin or other leather products.
4. Skiving Machines: Used to trim uneven parts of the leather surface to make it smoother.
5. Grinding Machines: Used to smooth the leather surface, enhancing the feel and appearance of the leather.
6. Water-Pressing and Stretching Machines: Used to remove excess water from the leather and stretch it, facilitating subsequent processing.
7. Softening Machines: Used to improve the softness and hand feel of the leather.
8. Calendering Machines: Used to iron the leather, removing wrinkles and making the leather surface more even.
9. Drying Equipment: Used for the drying process of leather, including tunnel dryers, board drying machines, etc.
10. Spray-Drying Machines: Used to apply chemicals to the leather surface and then dry them.
11. Electronic Leather Measuring Machines: Used to measure the area of the leather to facilitate cost and pricing calculations.
12. Polishing Machines: Used for polishing the leather surface to enhance its gloss.
These pieces of equipment play important roles in the leather production process, with different equipment targeting different stages and needs of leather processing. For example, Huzhou Jingyi Leather Machinery Co., Ltd. has been specializing in leather machinery for over twenty years, developing and producing equipment such as water-pressing and leveling machines, skiving machines, chain-type tenter frame drying machines, hydraulic fleshing machines, roll calendering machines, through-type grinding machines, and computer-controlled spray-drying machines. Meanwhile, Yantai Longyi Machinery Co., Ltd. focuses on producing high-quality leather skiving machines, fleshing machines, splitting machines, and layer splitting machines. The selection and use of these machines depend on the type of leather, production processes, and the requirements of the final product.
