Industrial blade wear: distinguishing abrasion, chipping and plastic deformation
Industrial blade wear does not always call for higher hardness. Learn to distinguish abrasion, edge chipping and plastic deformation before selecting a replacement.
Compatible and original spare parts: what to check before buying
Buying industrial blades and recycling parts requires comparing specifications, not just brand names. A compatible component must be studied for the specific machine, while an original reference also needs to be verified against the installed version.
Cost per ton of blades: compare more than price
The purchase price of an industrial blade alone does not express its cost of use. To compare recycling alternatives, relate the cost of the kit to the tons accepted and the operations necessary during its service life.
