Patented grinding and polishing technology
The innovative grinding and polishing procedure used by the SharpX model family made by Mado (Dornhan, Germany), enables every user - even those without any professional knowledge - to rapidly and safely create a crown finish for knives, which ensures great toughness and a long working life. A solenoid coupling ensures that the drive is decoupled if blockage occurs. This prevents damage to the knife as well as the danger of injury.
In order to make knives truly sharp and guarantee that cutting edges are durable, they must be ground so that the optimal crown finish is created. The SharpX diamond sharpening machines have patented technology that uses resilient, diamond-coated grinding wheels and special components for polishing blades. The SharpX grinder consists of two interlocked finned grinding wheels. The required grinding gap is created by special built-in springs. When the knife is inserted into the grinding head, the two grinding wheels move apart. The knife blade is automatically guided into the middle. Simultaneously, the resilient diamond-coated blades are bent in the desired convex form, resulting in superior sharpness compared to conventional methods, according to the manufacturer.
During the final polishing process, the use of two diamond-coated, high-frequency vibrating spring elements eliminates the need for additional polishing tools. The correct angle is automatically created by the spring-mounted polishing elements, which greatly simplifies the sharpening process.
