KNECHT works with state-of-the-art production facilities. New purchases are made under the condition of resource efficiency.
KNECHT products enjoy a reputation for long service life. We keep spare parts for at least 20 years, often significantly longer. Knecht machines can be repaired or factory overhauled for a very long time.
An example of a significant contribution to higher sustainability is our family of hand knife grinding machines E 50, E 50 R and E 50 RT: Hand knives ground with E 50 robot technology allow more precise cuts. This increases the meat yield by up to 0.5% compared to hand grinding. With 10,000 tons of meat production, this is 50,000 kg more yield. Knives sharpened with this technology also reduce the risk of accidents, and reduce losses due to inflammation in the arm and shoulder (up to 80% fewer RSI syndrome cases source: Anago Ltd.)
