Product range

Knives, ripper teeth and wear parts for shredders, granulators, crushers and shears

The ReCutec product range covers the key wear points in size-reduction and processing technology. Every item can be supplied as a custom part made to drawing or – for standard sizes – at short notice from the programme. With long-lasting materials, refurbishable components and precisely fitting solutions, we help companies conserve resources, reuse parts and sustainably reduce the ecological footprint of their plants.

What does the ReCutec product range include? ReCutec supplies shredder knives, granulator blades, ripper teeth, shear blades, wear plates and crusher/impactor wear parts for the recycling industry. Material, heat treatment and geometry are selected for each application – such as wood, plastic, tyre, scrap or electronic-scrap processing – rather than taken flat from a catalogue.

Range of different industrial-knife geometries for size-reduction technology: indexable inserts, flat blades, wear plates, ripper teeth and serrated knives

01 · Shredder knives

Shredder knives for single- and twin-shaft shredders

Rotor knives and counter knives (stator knives) are the most heavily stressed components in a shredder. They meet changing materials – wood, bulky waste, commercial waste, end-of-life tyres, cables or electronic scrap – and must withstand impact, bending and abrasion at the same time.

  • Rotor and counter knives for single-shaft shredders (wood, bulky waste, refuse-derived fuel)
  • Knife sets for twin-shaft shredders in scrap and bulky-waste processing
  • Multi-regrindable designs to extend service life
  • Material recommendation based on impact load and the share of foreign objects in the feed material

02 · Granulator blades

Granulator blades for plastic and rubber granulators

In granulators, rotating rotor blades work together with fixed stator-blade bars to size-reduce production scrap, regrind and reground material. Cutting retention and dimensional accuracy directly determine grain size and the plant's energy consumption.

  • Rotor blades for disc and drum rotors, ready to fit with hole pattern
  • Stator / bed knives for plastic and rubber granulators
  • Reproduction from sample, drawing or existing blade
  • Materials with high wear resistance for glass- or mineral-filled plastics

03 · Ripper teeth & rotor parts

Ripper teeth for rotary shears and shredder rotors

Ripper teeth tear and break down coarse material through tensile and impact loading rather than a pure cut. They are used in rotary shears for metal scrap, mixed scrap, end-of-life tyres and bulky waste, and are designed to be correspondingly tough.

  • Ripper teeth and hook teeth for rotary shears in scrap and tyre processing
  • Wear parts for shredder rotors with high notch-impact toughness
  • Reproduction from a wear part, drawing or original spare part
  • Selection of toughness/hardness based on impact energy and foreign-object risk

04 · Shear blades

Shear blades for scrap, container and baling shears

Shear blades for hydraulic scrap shears, container shears and scrap baling presses process large cross-sections – steel beams, sheet metal, machine scrap. What counts is high toughness, a precise grind and a geometry that matches the shear system exactly.

  • Long and flat blades for alligator and guillotine shears
  • Blades for container shears and scrap baling presses
  • Precision grinding for a defined shear gap and low force demand
  • Manufacturing to drawing, existing blade or dimensioned sketch

05 · Wear plates & armouring

Wear plates, armouring and liners

Housing walls, conveying paths, hoppers and transfer points wear out through abrasive material flow – even without direct cutting contact. Wear plates and liners protect the base structure and can be replaced in a targeted way.

  • Wear plates and bars with a defined hole pattern for direct mounting
  • Liners for hoppers, chutes and transfer points
  • Material choice between tough and highly abrasion-resistant designs
  • Supplied as flat material, cut to size or drilled ready to fit

06 · Crusher & impactor technology

Wear parts for jaw, impact and roll crushers

In rock, demolition-waste and slag processing, crushing tools are under constant pressure and impact load. We supply the central wear parts as reproductions or custom builds.

Crusher jaws

Fixed and swing jaws for jaw crushers, matched to feed material and gap width.

Blow bars & impact plates

Blow bars and impact plates for impact crushers in demolition-waste and slag processing.

Hammers & screen linings

Hammers for hammer mills as well as wear linings for screen decks and conveying paths.

07 · Special designs

Carbide-tipped and wear-optimised special designs

Where service life decides downtime costs, carbide-tipped or hard-faced special designs pay off – for example with highly abrasive or mineral-bearing feed material. Together we check whether the extra cost is recovered over the service life.

  • Carbide-tipped indexable knives for extreme abrasion
  • Wear-optimised indexable inserts as replaceable cutting segments
  • Armouring with hard-facing weld overlay on wear zones
  • Technical assessment of extra cost vs. service-life gain

08 · Holding & mounting parts

Knife holders, clamping elements and spacer parts

So that cutting parts sit exactly and can be changed quickly, we supply the matching holding and mounting parts as well – made to drawing or as a reproduction for your existing system.

Knife holders

Mounts for rotor and counter knives, a precise fit for each shredder type.

Clamping claws & bars

For tool-free or fast knife changes on shear blades and granulators.

Spacer & fitting parts

For exact adjustment of cutting gap and rotor running.

Application sectors

Used across all key recycling and processing fields

Scrap & metal

Ripper teeth, shear blades and shredder knives for mixed and non-ferrous scrap.

Plastic & rubber

Granulator blades for regrind, regranulate and tyre recycling.

Wood & biomass

Shredder knives for waste and residual wood as well as refuse-derived fuels.

Demolition waste & minerals

Crusher wear parts for demolition-waste, rock and slag processing.
