Potato cutting lines (crisps, batons, dices, slices), fruit and vegetables for fresh-cut and fresh produce, and high-capacity water-jet cutting systems.

Yes. They are made with polished finishes (Ra ≤ 0.4 µm) and are compatible with CIP cleaning protocols for food contact.

Do you work to OEM reference or to sample?

Both: we start from a technical drawing, a customer sample or the original FAM Stumabo OEM reference, adapting the geometry and finish to each process.

Do you regrind used FAM Stumabo knives?

Yes, with a regrinding service specialised in food knives that preserves the original geometry and hygiene guarantees.

What is the advantage over the original knife?

The same technical quality, shorter lead times, adaptation to your specific process and a close sharpening and stock service.
