Order Blades for Rubber Sheet Processing Machines [Case Study]

By adopting "powdered high-speed steel," the durability is increased due to the change in blade material, and annual costs are significantly reduced!

Here is a case study of Company A that adopted Arus's "powdered high-speed steel." The company was using high-speed steel blades in their rubber sheet cutting machines, but due to the lack of durability of the blades, they spent a lot of time on blade replacements and were exploring ways to extend the lifespan of the blades. In response, Arus proposed a method to "introduce highly durable blades, extend the lifespan of the blades, and reduce the frequency of blade replacements." By introducing our highly durable "powdered high-speed steel," although the unit cost per blade increased, the annual number of blade replacements was reduced from 360 to 30, cutting replacement time by 92% and overall costs by approximately 61%. [Implementation Effects (Excerpt)] ■ Blade Replacement Time (i.e., Line Downtime) - Before Implementation: 12 replacements per day @ 15 minutes × 1 blade × 12 times per day × 30 times per year = 90 hours - After Implementation: 1 replacement per day @ 15 minutes × 1 blade × 1 time per day × 30 times per year = 7.5 hours → -82.5 hours (approximately 92% reduction in replacement time) *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
