Hunkeler Cutter Unit Sharpening Service

Hunkeler Blade Sharpening Service by MSL!

The solution to prolonging the lifespan of your Hunkeler Cutter Unit!

MSL is proud to offer a professional blade sharpening service for both the small size HKU 700 and the larger sizes HKU 2020 and HKU 2000. We understand the importance of having sharp blades to efficiently dispose of waste trim on web applications, and we're committed to helping you save money by sharpening your cutters instead of having to purchase expensive replacements.

Our blade sharpening service includes three easy steps. We'll send you a specially designed crate that you can use to safely ship your cutter unit to us. Once we receive it, we'll sharpen both the rotary cutter and stationary blade to a factory edge using our state-of-the-art equipment. Our expert technicians can sharpen your cutter unit up to 4-5 times before the blades become too short, saving you money and time.

How the Sharpening Service Works:

1. Order the Sharpening Service and Wait for Your Crate

2. Pack your Hunkeler Cutting Unit in the Custom Crate and ship it back.

3. Once complete, the sharpened Hunkeler Cutting Unit will be returned complete.

We have a test fixture set up to quickly dial in the stationary knife, ensuring that your cutter unit will be returned to you ready to install, guaranteed. With our fast turnaround time, you can have your cutter unit back in your hands within a week of us receiving it. And if you need it even sooner, we offer a rush service as well!

We use a special precision sharpening machine that is perfectly dialed in for sharpening three concentric rotary blades.

Don't wait until it's too late and you're forced to order a new cutter unit. Simply keep one spare cutter to send to us for sharpening while you use the freshly sharpened one. Our blade sharpening service is about a quarter of the cost of a new device, allowing you to save money and extend the life of your equipment. Plus, we offer safe and secure shipping boxes. 

Preventative Care Saves You Money

These cutter or chipping units are best thought of and treated the same was as guillotine cutter blades in respect to sharpening. As soon as you notice diminished performance, swap it out and ship it to us to be sharpened. 

The faces of the blade on the rotary cutter wear in a concave manner on the face, as well as the cutting edge which become dull. We have to grind off any part of the blades with concave wear, or they will not cut properly. If the wear is bad enough, we might have to grind off .020" or more to get a true edge. This will mean only 2 or 3 sharpenings before the blade assemblies have to be replaced. We report to you how much we take off of the rotary blades as well as the stationary blade each time we sharpen these units. If we can grind .006-.008" we should be able to sharpen these units 4-6 times or more before there is not enough metal left. 

As soon as your cutter shows signs of not cutting swap it out and send it in. You are no longer buying new devices when they quit working. By doing this you will always have the best results and you will experience the lowest possible cost of operation.

NOTE: Shipping of the cutter unit is not included - and will be invoiced separately
