Leather printing
1. Leather printing equipment:
The irregularity of leather, coupled with its high price, determines that Shenlongjie leather printing equipment cannot replicate traditional printing equipment. At present, the printing equipment in the leather industry includes direct printing equipment, transfer printing equipment, and some auxiliary equipment.
a. Direct printing equipment: Of course, the preferred option is manual plate lifting, which has the advantages of fast pattern change, wide adaptability, and convenient color matching. However, the biggest problem with using manual lifting plates for leather printing is the large amount of waste caused by the irregularity of the leather. The professional term is "paste edge", which ultimately needs to be trimmed with scissors. Therefore, manual lifting plates are not commonly used in leather printing.
b. Transfer printing equipment: Transfer printing requires a paper printing machine and a heat transfer printing machine. Currently, foreign countries use thin film to replace paper, so a thin film printing machine can also be used. Heat transfer printing machines are different from textiles in that they require high pressure, with a normal working pressure of 20-30kg/cm2 and generally use oil pressure. The temperature requirement is not high, with a maximum of 120 degrees, and a normal temperature of 80 degrees is sufficient.
c. Auxiliary equipment: Auxiliary equipment is a key equipment in leather printing factories, which is related to product types and market share.
