Incoming for dressing sheepskin Raw materials come in different forms. The best raw material is paired sheepskins. Dry, frozen or salted skins are also processed.

When choosing and purchasing raw materials, a thorough inspection must be carried out. Good raw materials should not have cuts of meat and fat, cuts, putrefactive spots, bald spots, etc. Sheepskins taken from an animal killed in the fall are considered the best.

The preliminary preparation of sheepskins begins with washing the skins. The purpose of washing is to remove dirt, sweat, etc., and for salted skins, the removal of salt as well. Usually washing is carried out on a river or a pond. Sheepskins are placed in a clean place with the wool up and watered from above with water, while moving the shovel up and down the wool, which helps to clean. Such washing is carried out until all the dirt is washed off. Washing can also be done in vats in exactly the same way. The sheepskin is laid out at the bottom of the vat, and water is poured on top, which immediately leaves through the hole at the bottom of the vat. After washing, the sheepskins go to the soak.

Soaking aims to soften the skins. Many combine washing with soaking in one operation. This should not be done, because if the skins are poorly washed, they will easily rot if they lie further in the water. In addition, the vat, in which badly washed skins are soaked, quickly gets dirty.

Dry skins should usually be in water for 2-3 days, a steam room - from several hours to a day, salted ones - up to 2 days. A well-soaked skin has the appearance of a steam skin to the touch. If you take a rump in your hand and hold it tightly, then fingerprints will be clearly visible on such a skin. Soaking is carried out in running water in slatted boxes or baskets. Soaking can also be done in a vat with a large amount of water, in which case the water must be changed after a few hours.

When soaking, it is necessary to ensure that rotting does not occur, which entails hair loss. The addition of a small amount of carbolic acid to water prevents this phenomenon. After soaking, the skins are ready for cleaning. They are taken out of the vats and stacked on sloping boards to drain the water.

The next operation - cleaning the bakhtarma from cuts of meat, fat, veins, connective tissue, etc. is called skinning. The sheepskin is placed on the deck with the wool down and cleaned with a blunt knife - the mezryak. The collar of the skin should be at the top, and the tail at the bottom.

Skinning takes skill. Mezdryak should be held obliquely and obliquely to the line of the ridge of the skin. Careless movements must be guarded against, so as not to cut or cut the skin. They usually begin to scour the top of the collar, then from the bottom, and finally go down to the rump of the skin.

The skinned skin is washed with water on both sides and sorted into fatty and low-fat.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

Ink changes color 29.04.2003

New inks have been developed that can change color. In the future, thanks to them, it will be possible to create newspapers containing moving images, or, for example, indicators of chemicals that change their color in different chemical environments.

A substance called "light ink" was developed by D. Ozin and J. Manners from the University of Toronto (Canada). The ability to emit light of all shades of the spectrum is determined by diffraction. The ink contains spherical particles of silicon dioxide with a diameter of about 0,3 microns, constituting ordered structures. Due to interference processes in the light reflected from them, the radiation of certain wavelengths is attenuated, as a result of which the reflected light acquires a certain color.

To adjust the color ink to a certain color, a polymer gel was introduced into the ink composition. Under the action of the solvent, it swells, and when it dries, it shrinks. Changing the state of the gel (this process takes only 0,5 s) allows you to change the color of the ink. The gel also conducts electricity, and the electrical potential applied to it determines the amount of solvent that the gel is able to absorb.

As a result, a change in the electric potential applied to such inks allows their color to change smoothly over the entire spectrum.
