The present invention relates to an elongated pelt board for accommodating an animal pelt. The pelt board comprises a first wall element, a second wall element being spaced apart from the first wall element in the first radial direction, a third wall element and a fourth wall element being spaced apart from the third wall element in a second radial direction. The wall elements together define a cavity along a longitudinal direction. The wall elements defining a contracted state in which the first and second radial distances are reduced, and an expanded state in which the first and second radial distances are increased. The pelt board further comprising an elongated core element being movable in relation to each of the wall elements. The elongated core element allows the wall elements to selectively define the contracted state or the expanded state by moving the elongated core element in the longitudinal direction.

A pelt processing system that comprises a tanning unit for tanning a pelt, which has been fixated to an expanded pelt board having a pelt board top, a pelt board bottom and a connecting element at the pelt board bottom. The pelt board is further operable between an expanded state and a non-expanded state by moving the connecting element relative to the pelt board bottom. A holding unit is provided for accommodating a plurality of the elongated hollow pelt boards. The holding unit defines a top plate having a number of apertures and each of the apertures are adapted for accommodating the connecting element. A blowing unit is further provided and is compatible with the holding unit and comprises a bottom plate, which is parallel to and spaced apart from the top plate. A gas inlet is provided for receiving a stream of gas, preferably air, and a sidewall for interconnecting with the top plate in a fluid-tight manner for establishing an inner space between the top plate, the bottom plate, the gas inlet and the sidewall. The system further comprises a release mechanism for causing the pelt boards on the holding unit to assume the non-expanded state. The invention further relates to a method of drying a pelt by employing the pelt processing system.
