Experiments on Moisture Squeezing from a Leather Semi-Finished Product

Abstract

The paper presents the results of experimental studies of manufacturing process of moisture squeezing from a wet leather semi-finished product. The effect of the multiplicity of leather semi-finished product passage between the squeezing rolls is determined. The effect of manufacturing factors, such as passage velocity, clamping force of the rolls and the multiplicity of leather semi-finished product passage between the squeezing rolls, on the wringing process is experimentally determined. The dependence of moisture amount removed from the leather semi-finished product on the velocity of its passage between the squeezing rolls under pressure intensity is established.
