How Modular Perforation Enables Flexible Leather Design in Mass Production

Описание: Perforation in leather mass production is a balance between design freedom and manufacturing discipline. Aesthetic requirements, functional zones, airflow, and tear behavior often change — but production stability cannot.

This presentation introduces a customizable, tile-based perforation tooling concept for leather, integrated directly into the die cutting process. Instead of relying on fixed perforation layouts, the system allows perforation patterns to be configured, adapted, and optimized at the tooling level.

By modularizing perforation tiles, manufacturers can:

Adjust perforation density and layout by zone

Combine different visual or functional patterns in one part

Maintain repeatable perforation quality in mass production

Avoid rebuilding complete dies when designs evolve

The video walks through the tooling concept, layout logic, and production advantages of this approach, showing how flexibility can be built into die cutting without sacrificing consistency, throughput, or quality.

This solution is particularly relevant for automotive interior leather, seating, trim components, and other applications where perforation is both a design and performance feature.
