What Makes MVM the Go-To Brand for Knife Grinding?
When it comes to maintaining high-performance machine knives - whether in plastic recycling, biomass, WEEE, or sawmill operations - grinding precision is everything. That’s exactly why MVM has earned its reputation as the go-to manufacturer for industrial knife grinders worldwide.
We are proud to be the UK's exclusive supplier of MVM machines, because our customers expect performance, repeatability, and durability. But what exactly makes MVM stand out?
Here’s why engineers, workshop managers, and regrind professionals choose MVM.
Built in Italy, Trusted Worldwide
MVM machines are manufactured in Italy, using robust steel frames, quality European components, and over 60 years of industry knowledge. Unlike cheaper imports, these machines are built to last decades.
MVM Machines don’t risk breaking down mid-regrind. They offer tight tolerances, consistent surface finish, and a clean edge with every cycle.
Tailored to Every Regrind Need
From small workshops to high-throughput OEMs, MVM has a model for your needs:
| Model | Best For |
|---|---|
| LA300 Junior | Entry-level / compact setups |
| KS250 / KX250 | Standard chipper and recycling knives |
| PX Series | Fully automatic regrinds |
| FX20 / FX40 | High-power needs (15–30kW motors) |
| MX, ZX, CNC | Advanced R&D and multi-profile knives |
We also supply MVM add-ons like blade straighteners, magnetic chucks, edge honing devices, and support benches.
Consistent Precision Every Time
What sets MVM apart isn’t just the build quality, it’s the consistency of results. Whether you’re sharpening once a day or 50 times a day, MVM machines offer:
-
Consistent edge angle geometry
-
Even wear removal across the blade
-
Integrated coolant for surface protection
-
Programmable down-feed and travel speeds (on FX, PX, MX series)
Better blade life and better cutting performance means fewer costly breakdowns and less waste from inconsistent output - in turn, saving time and money.
Designed to Save Time on Setup & Operation
The process of sharpening or regrinding blades shouldn’t slow down your production or workshop efficiency. MVM’s semi-automatic and CNC machines reduce manual handling, improve cycle time, and minimise operator fatigue:
-
Fast blade clamping via magnetic chuck or Tersa holders
-
Automatic return cycles (on PX, FX, and MX)
-
Memory for blade programs (on CNC models)
This means you can run more blades with fewer staff, making it ideal for smaller businesses or regrind departments that are supporting production.
Easier to Maintain
Thanks to their modular design and availability of parts, MVM machines are also:
-
Easy to service and maintain in-house
-
Compatible with standard coolant and grinding wheels
-
Backed by reliable schematics and documentation
We offer expert support to all of our customers, so you're never left in the lurch.
