DICK SM160T KNIFE SHARPENER

Description

The DICK SM-160-T professional sharpener is the industrial step in the range: all-stainless-steel construction, water-cooled grinding belt and wheel and cooled polishing wheel for finishing. At 39 kg and with three-phase 380 V power, it is designed for intensive use.

What it is for

What distinguishes this machine is not only the volume it can handle, but the variety of tools it accepts: as well as professional knives, it sharpens bowl cutter blades and serrated table knives. That versatility makes it the reference equipment for sharpening workshops and for industries that maintain their own cutting tools.

• Large meat industries: knives and machine blades for the whole plant.
• Retailers: in-house edge maintenance without relying on third parties.
• Specialist sharpening workshops: professional service with polished finish.
• Cutting rooms: continuous rotation of blades.
• Processing kitchens with a bowl cutter: sharpening the machine’s own blades.

Stainless steel, hygiene and safety

The fact that the machine is made entirely of stainless steel is not an aesthetic detail: it is what allows it to be thoroughly cleaned in an environment with water, metal residue and proximity to food handling areas.

Frequently asked questions

Does it really sharpen bowl cutter blades?

Yes, it is one of its declared capabilities, along with professional knives and serrated table knives. For a processing kitchen with its own bowl cutter, being able to maintain its blades in-house avoids the cost and time of sending them out.

Why is the whole process cooled?

Because in intensive sharpening heat builds up and ends up affecting the temper of the steel exactly where the blade is thinnest. Having the belt, wheel and polishing wheel all cooled allows tools to be sharpened one after another without degrading any of them.

Does it need a three-phase installation?

Yes. It runs on three-phase 380 V, 50-60 Hz, with 0.7 kW of power, so it cannot be connected to a single-phase socket. If your premises do not have three-phase power, the SM110 and SM111 models work at 220-240 V.

How much space does it take up?

It measures 450 x 610 x 550 mm and weighs 39 kg, which makes it fixed-station equipment rather than a bench unit. You also need to provide a water point and drainage, and leave space around it to handle blades comfortably.

What is the polishing wheel for?

For the final finish. After sharpening, the blade retains a microscopic burr that must be removed; polishing eliminates it and leaves the edge finished. Without that step the knife seems very sharp when it comes off the machine, but loses its edge in the first few hours of work.
