About Our Knife Regrinding Service
High-Quality Knife Regrinding Service
Many businesses rely on cutting blades as a part of their production line. Generally speaking, these are controlled by precision machines that provide a high-quality standard of cutting. However, as with all knives, whether machine controlled or manually operated, the blade edge becomes worn with time. The continual cutting action eventually blunts the edge. At Precision Edge, we provide a high quality knife regrinding service to restore your blades to be as good as new.
Of course, you could wonder why a blade regrinding option is worthwhile. The first thing to think about is the importance of having sharpened blades. The obvious benefit to using sharp blades is that the quality of the products leaving your production line will be higher. After all, you use machine controlled blades because you want high quality, precision work, so allowing them to be blunt and produce poor quality cuts is not a logical choice. However, have you thought about the safety implications? With badly worn blades, there is more chance of parts slipping or snagging, and if the blade has increased friction, there is also more chance of it cracking or snapping. This could not only damage your machinery, leading to expensive repairs, but it could potentially be a hazard in the workplace.
Save Money With Knife Regrinding
But, accepting that having sharp knives is the best choice, why not just buy new? The best reason to choose sharpening and regrinding options is that it saves you money. The cost of this type of service is probably lower than you imagine. Rather than investing in completely new components, sharpening could keep your costs down.
What Is a Knife Regrinding Service?
What do we do in our knife regrinding service? We start by carefully inspecting your blade. This ensures that we can spot any faults or cracks that make the blade unsuitable for repair. We then carefully prepare the blade by cleaning it to remove any contaminants or debris. Then we begin the process of honing the blade. This includes carefully carrying out a surface grinding process, using precision tools. This ensures that the sides are completely smooth. We also carry out a range of other specialist processes, including ring grinding, form grinding and bevel grinding.
In the process of regrinding the blade, we ensure that the right type of edge is restored. There are many different edges on blade. As well as toothed, circular, scissor and straight blades, there are different edge profiles which are better suited to different purposes. Whether you need a flat grind, a v-grind, a convex grind, or something else entirely, we ensure that your blade is restored to being as good as new.
Having reshaped the blade, we have a thorough quality control inspection process, to ensure that every blade that leaves our workshop is at the standard that we are proud to supply. Our aim is to get your blade back to you as quickly as possible, in an as-new condition, so that you can keep working.
