Multiple grooved knife blocks

Multiple grooved knife blocks from DIENES

Precision and quality of the multiple grooved knife blocks are of great importance for the cutting result. Unusual precision requirements must be met during manufacture. The multiple grooved knife blocks itself, as well as its pitch, are manufactured to the tightest tolerances, ensuring consistently precise cutting widths.

DIENES manufacturing standards ensure optimum hardness, shape retention, lowest concentricity deviations, side impacts and surface roughness.

Use of multiple grooved knife blocks

A multiple grooved knife block basically has several cutting edges arranged on one or both sides. The multiple grooved knife blocks are located on an appropriately dimensioned shaft.

Multiple grooved knife blocks without locking are either clamped laterally on a bottom knife shaft by means of ring nuts or are mounted on an expansion shaft.

With the former design, one is bound by the respective cutting distances. When mounted on an expansion shaft, multiple grooved knife blocks are set to gap, allowing any cutting widths to be achieved.

By using multiple grooved knife blocks with screw locking, variable cutting widths can also be achieved.

All the variants mentioned are used in DIENES slitting and positioning systems. Two-piece multiple grooved knife blocks, with retaining ring or the patented hook fastener (type Duo-Ring) offer the advantage of quick multiple grooved knife block change without having to dismantle the bottom knife shaft assembly.
