    The Top 4 Reasons You Should Choose Precision Edge Limited

     

    Here at Precision Edge, since being founded in 1987, we have been providing our clients with a wide variety of options when it comes to the machine blades, earning a reputation for producing the best quality products for our customers’ varying needs. Today we are going to focus on the top four reasons why you should choose us for your machine knives.
     

    Our Range of Products

    We are known to be a reliable company that can be depended on to deliver machine knives of all kinds. Our full range of products includes a choice of nine different types of blades, including rotary scraper blades, tea bag, bagging and packaging knives, straight or circular knives, those with serrated edges, and any other kind of bespoke machine knives. We work with you to meet your requirements, providing a fully personalised service.
     

    Our High-Quality Materials

     

    We pride ourselves on providing the highest quality products, and as part of our commitment to this, we can offer the PowerEdge EXP500 steel technology. Even after intense and prolonged use, due to the use of this technology, blades are able to retain their edge, outperforming a conventional steel blade between 10-20 times. As the performance time is maximised, the downtime of the machines decreases, therefore increasing productivity. The longevity of the blades ensures it’s a great investment.

     

    One of the key factors which must be taken into account when adjusting rotary scraper blades is the consistency of the ingredient material. Rotary moulded items are produced from a soft dough, which may include all grades of shortcake and shortbread. Depending on the product, such material may be smooth, or carry inclusions of whole grains, nuts, dried fruit, or other ingredients. A worn rotary scraper blade, or one which is badly adjusted, may tear out chunks of the dough mixture, deforming the final product and compromising the process.

     

    Our Treatments and Coatings

     

    The heat treatment of our steel tools means that on a molecular level, the carbon is dissolved from its resident carbides, increasing the strength and hardness of the steel. From D2 HC/HC tool steel, to M2 HSS, CS100, and 420/440 stainless, each type is tightly quality controlled and the offers excellent quality. Additionally, we offer high performance coatings, including titanium nitride, titanium aluminium nitride and nitron MC, as well as cryogenic low-temperature treatments for component stabilization. Again, these aspects feed into the idea of increasing the lifespan of your blades.

     

    Our Regrinding Service

     

    Lastly, you should choose us due to our regrinding service, where we are also able to re-sharpen and refurbish existing knives. This process involves cleaning first and foremost, then analysing for any cracks or superficial damage to the surface. We check the dimensions and render the blades as good as new. Examples of knives that we offer our regrinding service include tooth form knives, flat knives, circular knives and scissor wrapping knives. Some wear to blades is inevitable over time, which is why we are pleased to provide this service, saving you both money and time, especially when taking into account the increased productivity of your knives, going with Precision Edge is sure to be a worthwhile investment.
