What we solve

More uptime. Lower cost per tonne.

The right wear part is not a commodity. Geometry, steel, heat treatment and exact fit influence output, energy use, cutting quality and maintenance time.

Machine and manufacturer names identify compatibility only. PILANA RETEK is an independent producer of replacement parts.

Application expertise

Parts designed around the real cutting process.

We look at the complete application: processed material, rotor geometry, cutting gap, wear pattern and required output. That context helps us recommend the right part and specification instead of a one-size-fits-all answer.

Useful answers

Before you send an inquiry.

What information do you need for a quotation?+

Ideally the machine manufacturer and model, part number, required quantity and a drawing or clear photographs. Information about processed material and current wear behaviour helps us recommend the right specification.

Can you manufacture a part without a drawing?+

Yes. Depending on the application, we can identify an existing catalogue part, work from machine information or reverse-engineer a worn sample.

Do you produce custom knives and wear parts?+

Yes. Custom production is available for technically and commercially suitable requirements, from individual assessment through repeat series supply.

Can you assess a damaged rotor?+

Yes. Send photographs showing the complete rotor and damaged areas. Our technical team will assess whether refurbishment is feasible and request any additional measurements.
