Professional-grade cleaning for circular saw blades, chipper knives, industrial knives, and cutting tools
The UTR80 ultrasonic washing machine is a high-performance solution for deep cleaning of all types of cutting tools — including circular saw blades, chipper knives, planer knives, guillotine blades, and industrial shredding knives. It removes built-up resin, grease, oil, and metallic residues using ultrasonic vibration, heat, and detergent action — all without damaging the blade’s surface or geometry.
“Ultrasonic cleaning offers a fast, non-abrasive way to restore cutting tools to peak performance — perfect for workshops where blade quality matters.”
Cutting tools like saw blades and chipper knives accumulate resin, pitch, sap, and grime — especially when processing native hardwoods like eucalyptus. The UTR80 uses 28 kHz ultrasonic cavitation to break down these contaminants in just minutes, restoring blades to their best cutting condition without manual scraping or harsh chemicals.
Tree lopping and stump grinding businesses rely on chipper knives that stay sharp and clean to perform efficiently. The UTR80 is ideal for removing sap, resin, and wood fibre between sharpening cycles — keeping your equipment running smoother and reducing wear on the blades.
The UTR80 is equally suited to industrial settings. It cleans shredder blades, granulator knives, and guillotine blades used in recycling plants, packaging facilities, and metal or paper processing operations. Ultrasonic cleaning removes adhesives, inks, plastics, and machining residue without damaging the blade surface.
This makes the UTR80 perfect for:
“For workshops maintaining industrial cutting systems, the UTR80 offers a safe, time-saving alternative to manual scraping and chemical baths.”
Knife sharpening businesses — both mobile and workshop-based — benefit from ultrasonic cleaning by ensuring blades are free of residue before they reach the grinding bench. Cleaner blades lead to more accurate sharpening, less wheel contamination, and longer tool life.
Perfect for:
“Blades that are properly cleaned before sharpening hold their edge longer and deliver more precise results. The UTR80 streamlines that process for serious professionals.”
