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 semifinished product on the velocity of its passage between the squeezing rolls under pressure intensity is established.
