TSPROF Profile Sharpening Kit K03 Pro AL Quick Edition, red
The updated flagship of sharpening systems will help you achieve perfect knife sharpening even faster, more accurately, and conveniently. Complete with the Axicube-I, the first electronic protractor designed specifically for sharpening systems. Setting the angle with an accuracy of 0.1° has never been so easy and convenient; the protractor is built directly into the abrasive holder. The holder itself consists of two steel guides. The special-shaped coupling ensures a rigid and precise connection. No deflections and maximum precision. The rack-and-pinion lift has a steel rail with an involute (toothed) engagement, which provides stepless adjustment of the sharpening angle. A brass gear wheel drives the slider, thanks to the steel-latun pair, the smooth movement of the slider is ensured. For convenience, a laser scale of sharpening angles is applied to the slider. The K03 Pro profile does not require calibration and can be assembled in a couple of minutes.
The modern rack and pinion lift TSPROF K03 Pro has a rack with an involute (toothed) engagement and stepless adjustment, and allows you to set the angle with an accuracy of 0.1 °. The case with an increased angle, due to the improved design, makes it possible to sharpen knives in the range of working angles from 10° (with loin clips from 8.5°) to 39° and at a common angle of up to 78°.
The movable part is connected to the base by a dovetail, which guarantees absolute accuracy in setting the angle. An additional locking screw allows you to rigidly lock the lift during stripping operations. An additional lifting rod is used to increase the sharpening angle. Now it is more convenient to fix its position: the locking screw can be installed on both sides of the housing.
The counterpart of the lift is made of durable aviation aluminum. It provides excellent, smooth running, thanks to the improved shape of the teeth of the steel rail. The slider is mounted through a dovetail-type connection, which eliminates the backlash of the mechanism during operation, which could affect the quality of sharpening. The angle measurement scale is applied to the side surface of the slider and makes it possible to visually control its installation. High-grade Teflon grease is used to ensure the operation of the rack-and-pinion lift mechanism. It forms a slippery, corrosion-resistant transparent film that guarantees smooth running, as well as protection from water, oil, dirt, and dust.
The unique rotating mechanism has a wide lever that facilitates rotation and ensures reliable auto-locking of the clip frame. Thanks to the system of springs and bearings, the frame turns over without wearing out the mechanism. The body of the auto-rotation system is made of durable aviation aluminum, with black anodizing. Due to the peculiarities of the anodizing process, the shade of the coating may vary on different parts. The margin of error when turning the frame is 0.3°.
The universal holder allows you to use any abrasive stones with a sharpener, both on and without blanks. The abrasive holder does not have a metal backing, but thanks to the special geometry of the stops, it allows you to fix the abrasives as securely as possible. The rod of the abrasive holder has an increased length of 694 mm, is made of steel, and has high rigidity. The holder rod is collapsible and is connected by an aluminum sleeve—coupling, with a three-point mounting, which gives maximum alignment of the connection. For adjustment, the rod is equipped with a convenient wing screw, the rod is connected in one motion.
An Axicube* sharpening angle measuring device is included with the abrasive holder. Designed specifically for sharpening systems, the protractor is integrated into the housing of the movable stop holder and allows you to track the parameters of the sharpening angle in real time. The Axicube has a rigid connection with the abrasive holder and is located in the plane of the abrasive stone. This allows you to get maximum angle accuracy during operation. Allows you to set the angle with an accuracy of 0.1°. The Axicube has an aluminum body with black anodizing, has moisture and dust resistance, is resistant to vibrations, drops, and temperature changes. Due to the peculiarities of the anodizing process, the shade of the coating may vary on different parts. It can be operated at temperatures from 0 to +40 °C. It is charged by standard micro-USB charging. Each Axicube is calibrated in production using trusted measuring instruments. Before use, an initial reference angle is set using a special calibration prism. When the sharpening device is moved to another surface, a new calibration using a prism is required.
*Axicube is a patented invention, patent no. 2768504. Axicube® is a registered trademark. The device is not intended for measurements other than sharpening, and correct operation is possible only when bundled with the K03 Pro Profile. The product is not compatible with the TSPROF Kadet and TSPROF Blitz sharpening devices. Correct operation of the device with other sharpening systems is not guaranteed.
TSPROF Quick knife clips with an eccentric open up a new level of convenience in sharpening. The knife is clamped in one motion and no longer requires a screwdriver. Knives with a thickness from 1 to 7 mm are securely fastened, and the knife clamping time is reduced by 2 times. The ability to quickly loosen the clamp greatly facilitates the knife positioning process. The complicated geometry of the knife is no longer a problem.
The Profile steel stand, weighing more than 3 kg, holds the device securely on the table and allows you to sharpen on any flat surface.
