Amagqabi oomatshini bokutya asetyenziswa ikakhulu kumatshini wokulungisa ukutya, asoloko esetyenziselwa ukusika iimveliso zenyama, ezinje: iimveliso zenyama ekhenkcezisiweyo, inyama yenkomo kunye negusha, i-ham, njl njl. ngamanye amaxesha kukho iimfuno ezithile kwinkqubo yokulungiswa kokutya, kuyimfuneko ukwenza i-blade ejikelezayo okanye i-blade ende ibe ngummese onamazinyo (i-toothed blade) njengale: Amagqabi anamazinyo ajikelezayo, amazinyo amade, i-semi-circular-toothed. iincakuba kunye nezinye iincakuba ezisemgangathweni, ezi blades kufuneka zibonelele ngemilinganiselo yomzobo okanye iisampulu zokuvelisa nokuvelisa. Amagqabi okutya kufuneka abe neempawu zobukhali obuhle, umphetho obukhali wencakuba, akukho burrs, ukuxhathisa ukunxiba, ukusika okugudileyo, kunye nobomi obude. Kuphela ngokusebenzisa ii-blades ezinjalo amashishini anokuphucula ukusebenza kakuhle kwinkqubo yokuvelisa. Iincakuba zeshishini lokulungisa ukutya esizivelisayo ziqinisekisiwe ukuba ziyintsimbi esulungekileyo, azinamhlwa, zibukhali kwaye zihlala ixesha elide. Ngelo xesha, umatshini wokusila ochanekileyo waseJamani usetyenziswa, ukuchaneka kulawulwa yikhompyutheni kwinkqubo yokuvelisa, kwaye unyango olushushu lwe-vacuum oluphezulu luyamkelwa, kunye nobunzima obuphakathi.
