02

Bed Knives (Stator Blades)

Fixed-position bed knives in single-edge, double-edge, adjustable, and segmented configurations. Manufactured to exact OEM specifications for proper fit and performance.

03

Granulator Screens

Precision-punched screens in round hole (1/4″, 5/16″, 3/8″, 1/2″), square hole, and herringbone patterns. Custom screen fabrication available for specialized requirements.

04

D2 & A2 Tool Steel Blades

High-quality tool steel blades for general-purpose applications. D2 offers excellent wear resistance while A2 provides superior toughness for impact-prone operations.

05

M2 & Carbide-Tipped Blades

Premium blade materials for demanding applications. M2 high-speed steel and carbide-tipped blades offer superior wear resistance for abrasive materials like glass-filled resins.

06

Complete Parts Kits

Pre-configured blade and screen kits for major granulator models. Ensures you have all necessary components for scheduled maintenance and blade changes.

Selection

Selection Guide

 Key factors to consider when selecting granulator parts:

Granulator Make/Model:

Ensure parts match your specific equipment including Cumberland, Rapid, Conair, Foremost, and others

Blade Material:

Match steel grade to material being processed for optimal blade life and cutting performance

Screen Size:

Select hole size based on desired regrind particle size and downstream process requirements

Cutting Configuration:

Consider rotor type (open vs. closed) and knife arrangement for your specific granulator model

Production Volume:

Higher throughput may require more frequent blade replacement or premium blade materials

Material Being Processed:

Abrasive materials require harder blade materials like M2 high-speed steel or carbide-tipped blades

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should granulator blades be changed or sharpened?

Blade change frequency depends on material hardness, throughput volume, and blade material. Signs that blades need attention include: increased fines, inconsistent regrind size, higher motor amperage, excessive noise, or visible blade damage. Many operations sharpen blades every 2-4 weeks. Our maintenance scheduler can help you establish an optimal service interval.

D2 tool steel is most common for general-purpose applications. A2 provides better toughness for impact-prone applications. M2 and carbide-tipped blades offer superior wear resistance for abrasive materials like glass-filled resins. Our blade material selector can recommend the optimal steel grade for your specific materials and production volume.

Proper blade gap is critical for cut quality and blade life. Generally, gap should be approximately 10-20% of material thickness being cut. Tighter gaps produce finer cuts but increase wear. Our blade gap calculator can provide specific recommendations based on your material type and thickness. Consult your granulator manual or contact our team for assistance.

Screen size depends on how you’ll use the regrind. Common sizes: 1/4″ for injection molding blends, 3/8″ for extrusion, 1/2″ for blow molding. Smaller holes produce finer regrind but reduce throughput. Our screen size advisor can help you select the optimal hole size based on your specific downstream process requirements.

Yes, we can cross-reference competitor and OEM part numbers to provide matching replacements. Send us your current blade dimensions or part numbers for assistance. Our blade cross-reference tool can help you quickly identify compatible Rowe Equipment parts for Cumberland, Rapid, Conair, and other major granulator brands.

Contact our team to discuss blade sharpening options and recommendations for your specific blade type and material. Professional resharpening can restore cutting performance and extend blade life, often providing better value than premature replacement, especially for premium blade materials.
