Viktigt är att kunna separera verktyg som säkerhetsknivar i de olika hygienzonerna. Det här blogginlägget berättar om hur Sollex säkerhetsknivar från Klever och Martor kan användas i separata hygienzoner. Varför metalliskt detekterbara knivar inom Livsmedels- och Läkemedelsindustri Material och föremål som är avsedda att komma i kontakt med livsmedel och läkemedel får inte innehålla partiklar av andra material och som oavsiktligt har hamnat där under tillverkningen.

Sollex tips on how to choose the right industrial knife and what should affect the choice. When choosing a knife, you need to consider a number of factors, which in turn affect the material from which the knife is made, its coating, thickness and shape. At the end of the article you can find a complete Sollex catalog of knives and razor blades for industrial applications.

TOP TIP. Replace the blade as soon as it loses its sharpness to prevent damage to the material and reduce the effort involved. TIP 1. Choose the blade that best suits your work. Thinner blades allow you to cut through sheet metal with less effort. TIP 2. Thicker blades are stronger and are ideal for cutting, for example, carpeting where you may need to apply some lateral force. TIP 3. To prevent burrs in the material being cut, always use a sharp blade and angle it slightly to the surface of the material. Use a sharp blade and don't forget about hand protection TIP 4 When cutting wet paper and plastic sheeting, use a blade with a convex cutting edge; when using a straight-edged blade, position it at a slight angle to the surface. TIP 5. A curved profile ruler with a channel to protect your fingers is desirable for cutting with a steel guide. TIP 6 When cutting a stack of sheet material, it is preferable to make more light cuts rather than less but with more force. TIP 7. Use a cu...

Blades in carbon steel Carbon steel is mainly an alloy of iron and carbon. In addition to carbon, smaller amounts of silicon and manganese are usually added to the alloy. The carbon content is usually 0.01% -0.8%, silicon below 0.3% and manganese below 0.8%. If the amount of carbon increases, the steel becomes harder and stronger but also less ductile...
