Key Spare Parts
Cutting Components
- Cutting blades: Garbuio uses proprietary blade geometries. Not interchangeable with Hauni KT series. Hardened tool steel, regrindable 3-5 times before replacement.
- Ledger plates: Counter-blade for the cutting action. Replace in pairs with cutting blade sets.
- Blade mill rotors: Replaceable cutting edges on a rotating drum. Inspection every 500 hours.
Feed Section
- Feed rollers: Serrated steel rollers for tobacco compression. Surface wear affects cutting consistency.
- Conveyor belts: Heavy-duty textile belts. Garbuio uses wider belts than Hauni equivalents.
- Conditioner feed screws: Metering screws with replaceable flights.
Classification
- Classifier screens: Perforated plates that separate cut tobacco by size. Screen hole wear changes cut distribution.
- Air classifiers: Separation drum assemblies. Impeller blade wear affects separation efficiency.
Garbuio vs Hauni KTC Comparison
- Blade systems: Garbuio blades are generally thicker and heavier than Hauni equivalents, with longer intervals between changes (8-12 hours vs 4-6 hours for Hauni KTC).
- Parts availability: Hauni parts are more widely available globally. Garbuio parts may require longer lead times from Italian manufacturing sources.
- Maintenance complexity: Garbuio machines are generally simpler to maintain, with fewer sensors and less electronic complexity.
