Efficient knife sharpening, making it fully automated and closely monitored at every stage
ASR (Automatic Sharpening Room) offers significant advantages in efficiency, precision, safety, and sustainability.
- Increased Efficiency – it can sharpen 54 knives in just 50 minutes and manage up to 8 mills, allowing for the sharpening of 16 knife rings per day while reducing overall knife usage by 50% annually
- Full automation and precision – the fully automated 6-axis robotic system ensures precise sharpening, with an optical scanning system that determines the exact material to be removed and an automated knife alignment feature that detects damaged screws or anomalies
- Improved safety and reduced labor – in terms of safety, the system significantly reduces operator involvement, cutting down knife handling time by 90%, which minimizes the risk of workplace injuries. Its fully enclosed chamber provides a controlled environment that enhances both worker protection and operational efficiency
- Optimized maintenance and monitoring – additionally, the ASR continuously monitors knife wear, sending real-time data to optimize flaker performance and improve overall maintenance
- Sustainability and cost reduction – water recovery system reduces waste while optimizing consumption, contributing to lower operational costs. The automation of the sharpening process also minimizes downtime and material waste, making the system a cost-effective and environmentally friendly solution
