| Résumé : |
Considerable changes have taken place in the movement and handling of hides and skins in the beamhouse during the last decade. A number of alternatives for the transport of raw stock in the pretanned condition has been made available by machinery manufacturers, and these have been adapted by the tanner's instinctive sense of innovation to improve the flow of goods in the early leather making stages.
These advances have been driven in many parts of the world by a combination of factors that have come together causing a watershed In effect the tanner has been forced to either become more effective in a number of areas concerning handling, or cease pretanning operations. The balance of these factors has differed in each tannery and changes are stille being imposed, but the problems being addressed are common.
The most apparent problem can be found in those parts of the world where labour costs are high and it has become essential to reduce this component to remain competitive.This factor has also become more important, however, i lower cost areas where the use of labour has been comparatively excessive. Increasing expectations have forces up labour rates and made many forms of mechanisation more attractive.
Directly associated with the use of labour in the deterioration in the quality of workmanship throughout the working day. Fatigue causes a gradual changes in all handling operations that are often difficult to quantify. In general, if a machine operation is labour intensive, driven by a continuous feed of hides as might be found with a splitting machine synchronised to a fleshing machine, then the standard of presentation will fall.
If standard are held at a more consistent level, then either the rate of throughput will decrease or additional labour will be needed to maintain output. |
