Our Process
1
Receiving Your Blades
Your blades are received and checked into our system, where you receive an automated email. We then immediately laser etch your name on the front of the blade so that it stays linked to you, from the second we receive it.
2
Polishing and Cleaning
All blades are cleaned in an ultrasonic bath and wire brushed with a nylon wheel. The ultrasonic bath helps loosen debris and the nylon wire wheel helps clear any surface debris away from the tooth without damaging the tooth like a steel wire wheel brush would.
3
Measuring and Inspection
Once cleaned, your blades are measured up and sorted into our work flow for one of our 6 CNC saw grinders. We inspect blades prior to going on our machine. We note significant run out and mark it on the blade so that we can correctly grind your blade into proper shape. Any blade needing tip work or that cannot be ground, are weeded out at this point in the process.
4
Grinding
Your blades are top and face ground. We have 2 dedicated top grinding machines, 1 dedicated facing machine and 3 machines that can do both grinds in a single cycle. Once ground, we again visually inspect the blade, as well as checking for any run out. Blades are to have 95% of the teeth within .002″ tolerance, and no two teeth can be more than .004″ apart in height.
5
Shipping
Blades are dipped in a wax protective coating prior to shipping back. If you sent your blades in boxes, or a special case, you will receive these back. If not, your blades are shipped in our custom boxes designed for saw blade shipping and are separated by cardboard dividers custom made to fit the profile of our shipping box.
Our 4 Point Inspection Process
Tooth Runout - .002" tolerance, no two teeth more than .004"
Plate Concentricity - .003” tolerance
Bent/Broken Tips
Visual Inspection - under Microscope for micro chipping.
“I tried the blades after receiving them back and they cut Oak wood like butter compared from what they were before sending them in for your resharpening service. It took me awhile before I found someone reliable as yourself to sharpen this set of Dado Blades as am not a type of person that throws things away. There is no doubt that Family Hardware will get any of my future blades that need blade sharpening service from now on. Your service is first rate and the shipping was a selling point for me.” ~ Steve - MI
“Want to thank you guys for such excellent service, from the timely turn around, free shipping, reasonable pricing and the great quality of cuts coming from the blades. I will definitely use your service again and pass your information along to anyone needing some blade sharpening.” ~ Mike Z - NV
