When your existing knife holders become loose and edge quality or dust problems begin, or new products and higher operating speeds come into play requiring improvements, Dienes can engineer a replacement system to suit your needs. These retrofit systems can be packaged into a cassette style frame for minimum downtime at installation.

Because we are an engineering based manufacturing company we utilize our 90 years of experience to help you select and fit the best suited holders and knife combinations for your budget.

New knife holders, a new AC drive, idler roll balancing, bearing replacements, roll alignment, and operator (re)training are all important factors that can revitalize your slitting operation.

Dienes can provide manual to automatic systems for paper, nonwovens, plastic, adhesive, printing, and most any other material applications.

Whether it's shear, crush, score, razor, heated blade, or lubricated knives, if it's been done before Dienes has done it. Photo gallery of systems available.
