Yalman Knives is a specialized manufacturer of heavy-duty industrial blades for the recycling and metal processing industries.
With our 3,500 m² indoor manufacturing facility, we are the first and only industrial blade manufacturer in Turkey with a fully in-house heat treatment plant.
Thanks to this integrated structure, we control the entire production chain — from raw steel to the finished blade — ensuring high performance, long service life, and set-to-set consistency.
Yalman Knives produces industrial blades for the following heavy-duty equipment:
Scrap Shears
Twin Shaft Shredders
Single Shaft Shredders
Granulator Knives
Our blades are engineered for systems operating under extreme impact, wear, and torque in recycling facilities.
We source our blade steels exclusively from leading European steel producers:
Deutsche Edelstahlwerke (DEW)
SIJ Metal Ravne
Böhler
This supply structure guarantees superior metallurgical quality, delivering high toughness, wear resistance, and mechanical stability in the field.
What makes Yalman Knives different is our complete control over the entire production process:
Steel selection
CNC machining
In-house vacuum heat treatment
Post heat treatment precision machining
Grinding & tolerance control
Final quality inspection
This eliminates the performance variations often seen in multi-supplier production models.
Having our own heat treatment facility allows us to control the most critical stage of industrial blade performance:
Homogeneous hardness distribution
Reduced residual stresses
Lower micro-crack risk
Controlled hardness–toughness balance
Additionally, all blades undergo post heat treatment machining, ensuring perfect mounting surface contact and stable field operation.
We do not just manufacture blades.
Our goal is to help our customers achieve:
Longer service life
More stable cutting performance
More predictable operation
Reduced downtime
First and only industrial blade producer in Turkey with its own heat treatment plant
