Aletti innovation will make buffing at wet blue stage easier
26/02/2015
This new version of the machine will make it easier for tanners to carry out buffing of hides at wet blue stage, offering advantages such as greater dye evenness because buffing after the hide is dyed and finished, which can alter the appearance of a hide, will no longer be necessary.
Speaking at TanningTech, the company’s Ezio Aletti told leatherbiz that the development had come about at the request of tanners in Tuscany’s Santa Croce cluster, who had been attempting for several years to carry out buffing at wet blue stage using existing technology. “This new machine can do it better,” Mr Aletti said, “and one major tanning group has already installed multiple versions of it at tanneries across Europe and Asia.”
