In the finishing section, there is no fixed production flow. According to the leather type and customer’s wishes, the leather surface is treated with different products or mechanical procedures. The responsibility lies in the skillful hands of the finishing technician to combine machinery and product instructions within one formula, so that the visual characteristics preferred by the customer are reached. Also, the handfeel and technical values must meet the customer’s requirements. Therefore, great technical knowledge, sensitivity, and a sense for color tones are needed.
Rollcoater:
Compared to the spraying machine, the rollcoater is also able to apply larger amounts of finishing products on the leather surface. With a heated cylinder, the rollcoater can apply waxes, greases, and oils on the surface of the leather.
