Trimmer IBEX

The IBEX company (New Zealand) has been on the market for more than 30 years and today is one of the main global manufacturers of ring knives (trimmers) for the meat industry. Factories in New Zealand, Australia, Asia, parts of China, and Europe are fully equipped with the company’s products. IBEX is a highly specialized company that produces only this tool. Apart from it, there is another company with such a narrow specialization and it is BETTCHER, but IBEX has advantages over it in terms of price characteristics and some technological solutions. For other SUHNER, and FREUND trimmer manufacturers, this tool is additional to their assortment, which affects technological solutions and the service support level.

The knife rotation speed and the cost of maintenance of the trimmer per year are the main indicators of the operation of any trimmer. IBEX outperforms all of its competitors in these key metrics. In 2014, it patented its new EZY TRIM system, which allows you to increase the knife speed by 2.5 times and significantly reduce the cost of tool maintenance. For example, a UN84 Bettcher 3000 engine with a drive cable and a blade diameter of 90 mm develops a knife speed of 120 m/min, and if you connect an IBEX system with a 90 mm blade to the same engine, the knife speed will be 280 m/min. Increased speed makes cutting easier, increases productivity, reduces blade sharpening frequency, and increases blade life. The IBEX company was the first to develop motors with an adjustable number of revolutions from 100 to 4500 revolutions/min.

Designed and manufactured to the highest safety standards, IBEX trimmers have a wide range of cutting elements from 35 to 180 mm in diameter and are supplied complete with electric or pneumatic drive.

Modern pneumatic equipment offers increased performance and improved comfort for operators. Extending the life of the IBEX trimmer’s wearing parts and its easy-maintenance design reduces costs and increases profits.

Pneumatic motor: 6 Bar
Power: 290 Watts
The number of revolutions of the knife: 4500 rev./min.
Air consumption: 400 l/min.
