Knife Gate Key Specifications

Knife gates for food processing are manufactured with smooth surface finishes, food-grade contact materials, and sanitary design principles. Crevice-free construction and washdown-compatible sealing prevent material buildup and microbial contamination in food-grade applications.

Actuation

Pneumatic cylinder with food-grade lubricants for automated production line control; manual hand wheel with stainless steel components for batch processing applications.

Sealing Type

FDA-compliant silicone and PTFE seals for food contact surfaces; zero-leakage inflatable seals for fine powders like flour, starch, and powdered sugar containment.

Seating Configuration

Soft seated with food-grade silicone or PTFE seat rings for gentle shutoff on delicate food materials; polished metal seats for high-temperature food processing.

Port Shape

Circular ports for food-grade pipeline integration; square ports for hopper and chute connections; all ports with smooth radiused edges to prevent material hang-up.

Body Material

AISI 304 or 316 stainless steel body and blade with polished surface finish (Ra ≤ 0.8 μm) for food contact compliance and easy washdown cleaning.

Size Range

Available from 100 mm to 600 mm for grain handling, flour milling, sugar processing, and bulk food ingredient flow control in food manufacturing plants.

Industrial Applications

Knife gates provide precise and hygienic shutoff at critical material control points in food processing plants where product purity is paramount.
