Avoiding leather damage during the splitting process is the key to ensuring leather quality and improving production efficiency.
Before splitting, the blade spacing and cutting depth of the splitting machine should be adjusted according to the thickness and texture of the leather. Too deep a cut will cause the internal fibers of the leather to break, while too shallow a cut may not completely split the leather, causing surface scratches. Therefore, accurate thickness adjustment is the first step to avoid damage.
The quality of the blade directly affects the splitting effect. High-quality blades have sharp edges and excellent wear resistance, which can maintain the sharpness of the edge during the splitting process and reduce scratches caused by edge blunting. At the same time, regular inspection and replacement of severely worn blades are also important measures to maintain the quality of splitting.
The control of feeding speed and pressure is crucial to avoid leather damage. Too fast a feeding speed or too high a pressure will cause the leather to be stretched and squeezed too much during the splitting process, resulting in scratches or tears. Therefore, the feeding speed and pressure should be reasonably adjusted according to the texture and thickness of the leather to ensure that the leather maintains a stable conveying state during the splitting process.
After long-term use, leather splitting machine will accumulate debris such as dandruff and dust on the blades, feed rollers and other parts. These debris will not only affect the operating efficiency of the machine, but may also become a hidden danger of scratching the leather. Therefore, regular cleaning of the machine and keeping the parts clean are important measures to avoid damage. At the same time, lubricating the relative moving parts of the splitting machine can reduce wear and friction, and further reduce the risk of leather damage.
The flower roller and the pressure roller are key components in the splitting machine, and their adjustment status directly affects the splitting quality. The teeth of the flower roller should be evenly distributed, and the pressure of the pressure roller should be moderate. If the teeth of the flower roller are unevenly worn or the pressure of the pressure roller is too large, the leather will be unevenly squeezed and stretched during the splitting process, resulting in damage. Therefore, the status of the flower roller and the pressure roller should be checked and adjusted regularly.
Different leather materials require different splitting processes. For example, for softer leather, a softer splitting method can be used to reduce damage to the leather fibers; for harder leather, a more rigid splitting method is required to ensure the splitting effect. Therefore, before splitting, the appropriate splitting process should be selected according to the texture and purpose of the leather.
The skill level and safety awareness of the operator are also important factors affecting the quality of splitting. Operators should be trained regularly to improve their operating skills and understanding of the machine. At the same time, the importance of safe operating procedures should be emphasized to ensure that operators strictly abide by safety regulations during the splitting process to avoid leather damage or safety accidents caused by improper operation.
Avoiding leather damage caused by the leather splitting machine during the splitting process requires multiple aspects. By adjusting the appropriate splitting thickness, selecting high-quality blades, optimizing the feeding speed and pressure, keeping the machine clean and lubricated, correctly adjusting the flower roller and pressure roller, reasonably selecting the splitting process, and strengthening operation training and safety awareness, the risk of leather damage can be effectively reduced and the splitting quality and production efficiency can be improved.
