Having problems with lifetime, throughput or cracking?
Ask for DURALIFE V+ KNIVES – the next generation of granulator knives
An industrial knife is the heart and soul of the recycling process. It crushes and mills different types of waste – reusable raw materials (PET, plastics, copper, aluminium, rubber etc.) into granulate. Waste is never completely homogeneous. Normally it contains a variety of foreign bodies, which is why knives are usually under constant pressure. Consequently, chipping and breaking of the blades occurs quite often and is nothing uncommon.
Combining a wide Range of Applications with a longer Lifetime
The Duralife V+ is an innovation on the market. Until today no manufacturer of blades has offered knives that combine a wide range of applications of the affordable conventional steels with the benefits of tungsten carbide with a longer lifetime. The Duralife V+ is a different story. They are not fragile like knives made out of hard metal. They are actually a lot tougher than conventional knives.
Due to higher wear resistance and higher toughness of Duralife V+ knives, knives have higher lifetime, require less regrinding and less machine stops. Downtime costs for knives out of Duralife V+ are three times lower as by knives out of W.Nr. 1.2379. Same parameters influence also on the amount of maintenance costs, which are by Duralife V+ knives for three times lower. We need less regrinding and less new knives.
We save your money and we help you lower your total costs of ownership (TCO).
