  • Fully Custom
  • Expedited Production Processing

The frozen meat cutting blade is a precision-ground industrial knife designed for portioning, slicing, and dicing frozen meat, poultry, and fish blocks at temperatures down to -25°C. Engineered for high-volume food processing lines, these blades are typically specified in materials such as AISI 420 stainless steel, D2 (Cr12MoV), or M2 high-speed steel, with a post heat-treatment hardness of HRC 52–60. The combination of a sub-0.1 mm flatness tolerance and a mirror-ground surface finish reduces product adhesion and bacterial harbourage, directly extending production uptime between blade changes.

Take a Closer Look

  • Frozen Meat Portioning

    Used in band saws, slicers, and guillotine cutters to portion frozen beef, pork, and lamb blocks into steaks, cutlets, or dices. D2 blades are specified for high-volume lines running 24/7.

  • Poultry Processing

    Fitted to automated chicken and turkey cutting lines for splitting frozen whole birds or portioning breast fillets. 420 stainless steel is common where frequent washdowns occur.

  • Fish and Seafood Cutting

    Deployed in frozen fish block saws and portion cutters for salmon, tuna, and whitefish. Corrosion-resistant grades prevent pitting from saline residue.

  • Ready-Meal Manufacturing

    Integrates into dicing and strip-cutting machines that process frozen meat components for ready meals, soups, and pet food, requiring consistent cube dimensions and clean edges.

Why Choose Yishi

YISHI Machinery applies in-house vacuum heat treatment and cryogenic processing to stabilise blade microstructure, achieving consistent HRC values within a ±1 point band across production batches. Blades are ground on CNC surface grinders to maintain flatness under 0.1 mm, a critical parameter for frozen meat cutting where blade deflection causes yield loss. Every blade is dimensionally inspected with a CMM report available on request. We accept OEM orders from 50 pieces with a standard lead time of 15–20 working days, and offer expedited production for urgent line-down situations. No marketing claims—just measurable specifications and repeatable quality.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is the recommended steel grade for cutting bone-in frozen meat?

    D2 (Cr12MoV) at HRC 56–60 is typically recommended for bone-in applications due to its high wear resistance and toughness after vacuum heat treatment. For highly corrosive environments or frequent washdowns, 420 stainless at HRC 52–55 may be preferred, though edge life will be shorter.

  • Can YISHI match the blade specifications of my existing OEM machine?

    Yes. Provide a dimensional drawing with tolerances, material grade, hardness specification, and surface finish requirement. If a drawing is unavailable, ship a sample blade and our engineering team will reverse-engineer it, producing a full specification sheet for your approval before manufacturing.

  • What flatness tolerance do you guarantee on frozen meat blades?

    We guarantee flatness <0.1 mm across the blade body. This is verified on a surface plate with a dial indicator and can be documented in a dimensional report. Tighter tolerances down to 0.05 mm are achievable for specific applications at additional cost.

  • What is the minimum order quantity for custom frozen meat blades?

    The standard MOQ is 50 pieces per specification. For first-article qualification, smaller trial batches of 10–20 pieces can be arranged with a setup charge. Contact our engineering team with your requirements for a specific quotation.

  • Do you offer coatings for extended blade life?

    Yes. PVD coatings such as titanium nitride (TiN) and chromium nitride (CrN) can be applied to increase surface hardness and reduce friction. These are particularly effective on D2 and M2 substrates for high-volume frozen meat lines. Coating thickness is typically 2–4 µm.
