As a major supplier of granulator blades, we understand the varied tolerance levels for each set of granulator blades.

With the Fordura’ blade, you can ensure that your machine is working at its optimal level and producing quality results.

The Art of Granulator Blade Sharpening

Are you looking for a reliable partner to update your current shredder blades? Look no further! Fordura, a leading industrial blades and knives manufacturer in China and Germany, is your best choice.
Sharpening granulator blades is a meticulous process, beginning with vibratory cleaning to remove any plastic residue. Then, blades are measured to determine the minimal material removal required while preserving tolerance. During sharpening, a magnetic chuck holds the blade, ensuring the precise angle for maintaining tolerance. Throughout the process, blades are sprayed with coolants to reduce heat emissions and prevent heat checking.
Despite the rigorous sharpening, granulator blades can be resharpened at least ten times during their use. This is possible as the sharpening process removes less than fifty-thousandths of the blade material. Fordura takes pride in producing top-quality granulator blades capable of withstanding frequent sharpening and heat checking.

The Ultimate Guide to Granulator Blade Sharpening

1. Cleaning

Vibratory processing is employed to ensure thorough cleaning of the granulator blade. It’s the initial and most crucial step in sharpening the granulator blades. This process effectively removes all residual plastic and contaminants from the blade, preparing it for the next phase.

2. Inspecting and Measuring:

Before any sharpening can occur, each blade is carefully inspected and measured. The inspection aims to identify any chips, cracks, or other damage that may affect the sharpening process. Measuring the blade helps to determine the amount of material that can be removed during the sharpening process while still preserving the blade’s tolerance.

3. Marking:

The blade area to be sharpened is marked out. This involves outlining the exact sections of the blade that need to be sharpened, ensuring the sharpening process is precise and that the blade’s tolerance is maintained.

4. Mounting:

The blade is secured on a magnetic chuck for the sharpening process. This ensures stability and prevents any unwanted movement during sharpening, thereby minimizing the risk of errors and maintaining an even, consistent edge on the blade.

5. Sharpening:

A Blanchard grinding machine, outfitted with the appropriate grinding stones, is used for the sharpening process. The marked lines are carefully followed to retain the blade’s tolerance. Sharpening all granulator blades as a set is recommended to maintain accuracy and consistency across all the blades.

6. Cooling:

An important aspect of the sharpening process is cooling. During sharpening, a significant amount of heat is produced. To prevent heat checking – a condition that reduces the blade’s toughness and hardness – coolants are applied or used to flood the blades. The coolants help to reduce heat emissions and maintain the blade’s hardness.

7. Final Inspection and Quality Control:

After sharpening, each blade goes through a final inspection to ensure that the sharpening process has met the desired standards. The blades’ sharpness, symmetry, and tolerance are all checked. Quality control is critical to ensure that the sharpened blades will function at their best when returned to service.

8. Storage:

Proper storage of the blade post-sharpening is essential to prevent dullness or damage. The edges of the blades are usually covered with duct tape or other protective material for added protection. The use of rust inhibitors is also crucial. They help to inhibit the rusting process, thereby preventing the blades from rusting due to exposure to air and water.

The process of sharpening granulator blades can seem complex, but when done correctly, it ensures that your blades perform optimally for longer, ultimately saving your operation time and money. Trust Fordura, a leader in the industry, to bring your granulator blades back to their best condition.

Precision sharpening is an investment that pays dividends. It reduces the cost of maintaining a granulating machine to about 20% of the blade replacement price. Partnering with a precision sharpener like Fordura ensures optimum performance and efficiency from your granulator blades. As a producer of top-quality granulator blades, we understand the strict tolerances involved in precision sharpening. Trust Fordura to bring your granulator blades back to life.
