The effect of roller pressure and feed rate on hides squeezing
Annotatsiya
The article presents the results of experimental studies of the process of extracting excess liquid from a water-saturated hide. The experiments were conducted in two options: using a rigid base plate and a cermet base plate for the feed mechanism of the roller machine. In the study, samples of a wet hide on rigid and cermet base plates were pulled between rotating squeezing rollers using conveyor chains. Mathematical dependences of the amount of liquid removed from a wet hide on its feed rate and the pressure of the squeezing rollers were obtained for two special options. The experimental results showed a significant increase in the efficiency of the squeezing process of a wet hide due to the use of a cermet base plate in comparison with a rigid base plate.
