Escomar and New 3P to present new machines

26/09/2012
Escomar and New 3P will present two new machines at Tanning Tech 2012, which takes place in Bologna from October 9-11. Escomar will show a new seven-cylinder press for wet blue, the PCR7, while New 3P will show a new throughfeed fleshing machine, the Kaiman.

Escomar’s PCR7 has a feeding conveyor for stretching hides, with automated centering. It also has a spreading cylinder with a series of different-angled blades to provide optimum spreading. There are triple pressing bridges, with seven pressing cylinders and five pressing points on the hide.

According to the manufacturer, high pressure, the large diameter of the cylinders and “the working geometry”, make this machine powerful enough for wet blue sammying.

For its part, the Kaiman from New 3P is a new hydraulic throughfeed fleshing machine. It has a width of 3200 mm, a new hydraulic unit, and large-diameter blades for fleshing cylinders.
