Circular knives that improve your production

Cutting techniques with circular knives

Circular Scissors Cutting

Scissor cutting is done in overlap between upper blade and lower blade. This cutting application generates shear stress to cut the product. This is the most commonly used method, but requires precise adjustment to ensure high quality. In addition, it is crucial to check the cutting equipment regularly. Adjust the equipment to prevent wear and tear. In doing so, ensure continued operational efficiency.

Circular Pressure Cutting

In pressure cutting, materials are subjected to compressive stress by using an “anvil”. Cutting quality is lower, but the process is user-friendly. Here, absolute precision is of lesser importance. Speed, flexibility and stand time are paramount.

Free Cutting

Round knives can be used without counter knives but as a free-cutting application. The advantages here are the lower investment cost, easy adjustment and, due to the movement of the blade, an extremely efficient cutting result. Use of a free-cutting round blade is mainly used for stiff and flexible materials.

Our approach

Our team conducts a thorough on-site analysis of your current situation. Based on this, we can suggest adjustments to improve your production.

Advantages of custom circular knives

Longer lifespan, less maintenance

Is your focus on maximising stand time and reducing frequent replacements and maintenance? We want to extend the life of your blade. We do this by using the right material. Design and any coating also play a role.

Consistent cut quality

Is cutting efficiency and quality of cut paramount? Or a combination of stand time and quality, then together we will look for the optimal composition of your blade.

Circular knives safety

The safety of your workers is paramount. By choosing durable blades, you reduce maintenance and blade replacement. This significantly reduces the risk of a work accident. We also offer the service of keeping your knife in stock for fast delivery. This keeps your production guaranteed.

Circular knives in action

Circular knives for packaging vegetable grower

A specialised company in agriculture was struggling with a highly sensitive cutting application. An operator had to make very precise adjustments with each production. This caused a lot of wasted time, production waste and damage to the blades and counter roller.

Thanks to our knowledge and experience, we worked out a knife where the adjustment was very easy and efficient. In addition to improved standing time and cutting quality, we also ensured production efficiency and reduced waste.

Circular blades for new machine plastic billboards

A manufacturer of plastic billboards came knocking on the door of their machine shop. They wanted to cut a specific type of corrugated sheet on their latest machine. The standard round blades were not sufficient to cut this specific material qualitatively.

Together with the machine builder, we came up with a robust but sharp blade. The aim was to cut the specific material. In addition, we wanted to increase quality and stand time for other materials.
