The pellet press rule cuts extruded pellets cleanly at the die face. This small component has a direct impact on product size uniformity and line hygiene.
The pellet press rule (cutting knife) cuts pellets extruding from the die to the specified length and leaves a clean cross-section. Atlas Yem rules are made from hardened tool steel, maintaining a sharp cutting edge for extended periods and minimizing the need for re-grinding. A worn or misaligned rule tears rather than cuts the pellet, causing product loss, excess fines, and quality degradation. The right angle and hardness combination ensures maximum efficiency and clean cuts.
