Technical Specifications

Advanced Synchronization Technology

In double-gob operations, even a micro-second difference in cut timing can lead to variations in gob temperature and weight. Nexmek blades are ground as a single unit to ensure absolute geometric identity.
  • Matched-pair manufacturing for simultaneous gob separation across dual orifices
  • Uniform blade tensioning to prevent uneven wear patterns and gob weight variance
  • Consistent drag-coefficient across all cutting edges for Emhart / Bucher IS feeders

Center Distance & Feeder Compatibility

We provide a wide range of center distance configurations to ensure direct compatibility with your existing feeder setup and shear mechanism.

Thermal Management & Spray Retention

Multi-gob cutting generates significant friction and heat. Our DG blades feature a specialized matte surface designed to hold shear spray more effectively than polished alternatives.
  • Increased lubricant retention for cooler operation
  • Prevents 'glass pickup' and material build-up
  • Extends the interval between regrinding cycles
  • Reduces the risk of thermal shock on the blade edge
