What are the advantages of inserted knives?

Equipping your shop with insert tooling has many advantages, including.

Better Product Quality and Consistency

With inserted tooling, you have complete control over the consistency and quality of your product because you can change your own cutting edges on an as-needed basis, on order, with minimal downtime.

Switch to spare inserts during sharpening

Previously, sharpening meant downtime, which could last for days. With blades, however, you can have a spare set of blades ready to go while sharpening. Plus, you can even bypass the sharpening process altogether and just start using your spare blades full-time.

Extreme precision

When it comes to blade tools, precision is very important. High quality projects require a high level of cutting accuracy, and blades are sharpened to be as consistent and precise as possible across a wide range of wood types and materials.

Stocking Blades, Not Bits

Keeping a supply of spare cutter heads is space consuming, which is unacceptable for many in the industry. With a blade tool, you can save space and eliminate clutter in your facility or shop by simply storing spare blades.

Re-Tip Your Own Machines

Accidents happen, and sometimes certain types of wood can cause tips to break off when they are not compatible. With the standard setup, you will have to wait for the head to be re-tipped. But with an insert tooling, you can simply check the work piece for damage, put in a new insert, continue working, and minimize downtime.
