By switching the blade material to Hardox(R)500, we achieve improved efficiency.
The knife used to cut the fibrous stalks before crushing hard sugarcane in a large press needed to withstand the acid-like juice of the sugarcane. Only robust and wear-resistant blades could achieve this. **Challenges at the Ingenio de Atencingo sugar factory in Mexico:** - Short knife lifespan - Time-consuming knife maintenance - Resulting unnecessary downtime **~Switching the blade material to Hardox(R)500~** 1. Knife lifespan increased threefold 2. Reduced maintenance time 3. Avoidance of unnecessary downtime 4. Improved final results By changing the material of the cutting knives previously used to Hardox(R)500, Ingenio de Atencingo was able to improve the efficiency issues it faced, ultimately leading to better results. *For more details, please contact us or download the PDF materials to learn more.*
