Sharpening your guillotine blades is also an option, but it’s only a temporary fix. Replacing your guillotine blades is unavoidable if you want to prevent downtime and keep your operations running as they should.

When Do K&B Guillotine Blades Need Replacing?

It can be difficult to place a specific time frame on the lifetime of guillotine blades, as it ultimately depends upon a number of factors. Such factors include how regularly you’re using your K&B guillotine machine to make cuts, how thick the materials you’re cutting through are, and the type of metal you’re working on.

Instead of saying your guillotine blades will need replacing after six weeks, ten weeks, or even six months, we prefer to show you the typical signs of wear to look out for. The following signs will help you identify when your guillotine blades need replacing:

• An inability to fully cut through materials you can usually cut through successfully.
• The time taken for cuts to be completed has increased significantly.
• The quality of your cuts is much poorer than usual.

If one or more of these signs are evident on your K&B guillotine, then it’s highly likely that your current guillotine blades are damaged or have dulled. In this case, it’s time to order your replacement K&B Guillotine Blades from Sheffield Gauge Plate today. To place your order, simply call now on (+44)114 233 5291 or email us with your requirements at sales@sgpltd.co.uk.

Can K&B Guillotine Blades Be Sharpened?

K&B Guillotine Blades, like all guillotine blades, can be sharpened to prolong their lifetime. To aid you in doing so safely, the team here at Sheffield Gauge Plate offer a professional Guillotine Blade Sharpening Service. By sharpening your guillotine blades, you can reduce downtime and keep your operations running smoothly for longer.

However, it is worth mentioning that guillotine blades can only be sharpened a few times before the process becomes ineffective. Every guillotine blade is different, but they can usually be sharpened around five times before they become ineffective. If you’re sharpening the blades yourself, please ensure you do so safely with the correct tools to prevent injury – or leave it up to the professionals!
