Choose the Best Slitting Knives

In the vinyl, film, fabric, paper, laminate and nonwoven industries, products are often manufactured into large rolls of bulk material. Because these rolls are too large to be used in the final product, many Slitting Knives Manufacturers convert the material into smaller rolls for final production through a process called "slitting. In this process, the material on the roll is unrolled through a series of blades and cut to a specific width. The blades used in the slitting process will have a significant impact on the final quality of the product. Therefore, it is important to select the best slitting blade to use.
 

How to choose the best blade for your slitting process:

We are an industry leader in the manufacture of industrial slitting knives and other industrial tool-related parts and accessories, and choosing the ideal blade for your slitting process can be a challenge; however, shear slitting knives, razor slitting knives and press slitting knives are three of the most popular types. Shear Slitting Knives are typically used in applications and industries that require precise cutting. While setting up shear slitting can be both expensive and difficult, it is very effective in converting thick films, paper, foil, composites and layered materials. The shear slitting process requires two blades, one at the top and one at the bottom. The top blade is called the "male slitter" and the bottom is called the "female blade" or "anvil holder". Like a pair of hand scissors, the two blades come together to form a cutting point. This slitting process generates the least amount of heat, which is why it is often used in environments that require demanding operation and uptime.

The best way to maintain these blades is to make sure the cutting point is accurate. If they are not set up correctly, the blades will wear out faster than usual. In addition, the blades can be sharp to increase the life of the shear Slitting Knives. The most common material used for these blades is D2 steel. Other steel blades can be used as a durable alternative in unique applications where the material being cut will increase blade wear.
