“The contour specialist”

SSM PROFIL skate sharpener

SSM PROFIL is a skate sharpening machine specialized in making blade profiles. The big difference compared to other machines is that it is using the grinding wheel in a vertical position. By doing so you will get a lot of benefits when contouring. But what is most important is that it will let you profile skates much faster and more accurately. This machine uses contour templates when making shapes; four templates are included with the SSM PROFIL. You will need a SSM-2 or a SSM TT-3 afterwards to do the finishing sharpening (flat or hollow) on the skates. SSM PROFIL is available in a CE-approved 220-240 V version and an ETL-approved 110-120 V version.

Edge the competition

EFFECTIVE AND COOL GRINDING – By using a vertical grinding wheel you will get a very small contact surface between the skate blade and the grinding wheel. This leads to faster removal of material and gives a cooler grind. You will be able to profile a skate in 1-5 minutes.

SUPER ACCURACY – The vertical grinding wheel will guarantee a more exact transfer of the contour from the template compared to using a horizontal grinding wheel. Not having sufficient work-pressure leads to bumps and undesireable shape on the skate blade.

ELMINATE ERRORS – This machine has a fine-adjusting device that will help you align the skate blade perfectly after the template.

NEW PITCH/PIVOT SYSTEM – In 2016 we designed an easy system to shift the contour template to alter the pivot/pitch of profiles very accurately.

COPY YOUR SKATE BLADE – From 2016 it is also possible to fully copy a skate blade shape directly onto another skate blade by using the old skate blade as a template! (Assuming an optimal shape has been found.)
