World-class squeegee grinding machines.

Machine Type: Squeegee Grinder
Manufacturer: RKS
Origin: Made in Germany

Since 1984 RKS has been developing and manufacturing world-class squeegee grinding machines for their highly successful line of Squeegees. Today they have well over four hundred grinding machines sold within the screen printing industry (and many others outside the screen print market), and they are the world leader in providing precise squeegee grinding machines built in Germany.

RKS aims to produce the finest squeegee grinding machines allowing for; efficient, fast, affordable, user-friendly, and reproducible ground squeegees for the screen printing marketplace. RKS engineers and designers are constantly striving & researching for new and more effective ways to rework (aka grind) screen printing squeegees. With nearly forty years of experience in the field of "squeegee reworking" one thing is sure: RKS provides the most precise, most economical and the highest quality squeegee blades and grinding equipment. Once you try an RKS blade, you will never go back to using a “regular” squeegee and the same is true for their squeegee grinding machines.

RKS is the only manufacturer of Squeegee Grinders that are outfitted with a laser positioning guide. Operation is simple; the operator inserts the squeegee blade and clamps it. Then you simply select a grinding program and then the grinding process is fully automatic. With this automatic operation, you are avoiding any possible operator errors, such as grinding off too large of a pass. The RKS Squeegee grinders outfitted with laser positioning combines all proven and known advantages of the RKS Squeegee Grinders. The RKS Squeegee Sharpener also features a Touchscreen Control Panel.
