Wide Range of Plastic Granulator Blades from the UK
Plastic Granulator Blades are the crucial components of granulator machines. They significantly impact the granulation process efficiency.
Problems that might arise while using Granulator Machines:
• uneven or poor quality outcome granulates
• material tearing instead of cutting
• noticeable decrease in the amount of initial material processed
These problems usually mean that sharpening granulator blades is necessary to maintain optimal performance. We offer a professional granulator blade sharpening service, with a regular pick up/collection service throughout the UK.
After a blade has been sharpened nearly 10 times though its lifetime it is significantly thinner than its original. At this point, it reaches the end of its life and requires a replacement.
* Available Mon-Thu: 9am- 4pm, Fri: 9am-2.45pm
There are the main signes that a Granulator Blade needs a replacement:
• Has been sharpened almost 10 times during its service
• Significant thinning
• Pour fit due to multiple sharpening
• Significant chipping
We can help you to solve this problem by choosing a correct granulator blade for your application.
A complete design, production, repair and regrinding service of plastic granulator blades and knives are available to our customers. Our inspection and test procedures are both rigid and comprehensive in our certified with our ISO 9001 quality factory. So our customers can be confident with the top quality blades and timely service.
Upon your initial enquiery our technical staff will ask you:
- What material is being processed? hard, soft, large or small section?
- Is there likely to be a risk of contamination?
- How abrasive is the material?
- Does the knife operate in a corrosive environment?
- Cost. A large section knife is generally cheaper if a tipped knife is used, whereas a knife of small sectional area is invariably cheaper if made from heat treated alloy steel.
- What issues are you experiencing with your current knife?

When to choose a toughened, tipped or superior tipped blade
An important factor to remember, is that a damaged tipped knife can be repaired, provided that there is sufficient grinding life left in the knife. Our tips are manufactured into the blade, subsequently forming a complete mechanical and metallurgical bond.
Considerable cost savings arise using this type of blade, especially ones with a large cross-sectional area. The special advantage of these knives is their shatterproof quality which prevents damage to the granulator machine. This is because a tipped blade will twist rather than shatter like a solid tool steel blade. Being shatterproof is particularly important when the material being processed may be contaminated by foreign matter.
Fernite tough tipped blades are ideal where there is a risk of contamination, or where D2 blades are prone to suffering larger chips. Our toughened blades retain their sharpness for longer and any chips will be smaller. So, this means that any damage sustained can be repaired by sharpening the blade. Whilst sharpening the blade , we’re able to remove less material extending both the efficiency and the working life of the blade.
Advantages:
- Shatterproof quality
- Ideal for heavy duty cutting
- When proceeding contaminated materials
- When material is processed at elevated temperatures
- Less blade edge material is removed during sharpening process
