GST 250/300 Knife Setting Jig

External knife setting jig engineered specifically for the ZERMA America GST 250/300 and Virtus Equipment GST 250/300 compact tangential granulators. The fixture enables technicians to pre-set and align rotor and stator knives to the correct offset angle outside the machine before installation, ensuring a precise drop-in fit that protects the open F-type tangential rotor from improper tool gap alignments. Four heavy-duty bolt brackets hold the ground knife at the optimal geometry for the 250mm rotor diameter and 300mm cutting chamber width configuration. Presetting blades on this jig during production significantly reduces knife change downtime.

Description

The GST 250/300 Knife Setting Jig is a factory-specification external presetting fixture for the ZERMA America GST 250/300 and Virtus Equipment GST 250/300 compact tangential granulators. The GST 250/300 designation indicates a 250mm rotor diameter paired with a 300mm cutting chamber width. This series uses an open F-type tangential rotor design where precise knife gap alignment is critical to cutting performance and knife service life. Improper tool gap settings on a tangential rotor can cause premature knife wear or damage to the rotor, making external presetting with this dedicated jig an essential part of routine maintenance.
