Cutter Inserts
The standard CX Cutter design employs a series of inter-connected cylindrical discs, each incorporating (2) replaceable tool steel cutter inserts (optional 4-insert disc design available) in a staggered configuration. The inserts incorporate positive rake-angle blade design, minimizing horsepower requirements and increasing shear efficiency.
