Types of Metal Shears
The metal shears produced by our company mainly include the following types:
Alligator Shears
Its monoblock design ensures superior stability and force transmission while simplifying installation and reducing energy loss, making it both a powerful and cost-effective asset for any yard focused on heavy scrap.
Grantry Shears
The Hydraulic gantry shears is engineered for high-volume, high-efficiency scrap processing in demanding industrial environments. Designed to meet rigorous European standards, this robust shear delivers exceptional cutting force and reliability for processing mixed scrap metal, demolition waste, heavy profiles, and industrial turnings.
Advantages of Metal Shears
High-Capacity, Precision Cutting
One of the primary reasons to invest in a hydraulic metalworking shear is its unparalleled capacity over manual methods. Hydraulic shears are designed to make clean, accurate cuts in various types of metals.
Versatility
Hydraulic metalworking shears are incredibly versatile. They can handle a wide range of materials, including steel, aluminium, stainless steel, and more. This versatility ensures that your workshop can efficiently cut different materials without needing multiple cutting tools.
Speed and Efficiency
Hydraulic shears are known for their speed and efficiency. By utilising the three run modes outlined above (single, inching, and automatic), Hydraulic presses can perform either individual, or rapid cutting while maintaining exceptional quality across the full width of the machine.
Low Maintenance
Despite their high level of technology, hydraulic shears are easy to maintain. This translates to reduced downtime, lower maintenance costs, and more time spent on actual fabrication work.
Cost Savings
Investing in a hydraulic metalworking shear can lead to significant cost savings in the long run. These shears reduce the need for secondary operations like deburring or edge finishing that are massive time-sinks.
Enhanced Safety
Safety should always be a top priority in any metalworking workshop. Hydraulic shears come equipped as standard with safety features such as guarding, emergency stop buttons, and a safety light-curtain at the rear or the machine.
Applications of Metal Shears
Scrap metal shears are indispensable in the recycling industry. They are used to cut and process large and irregularly shaped scrap metal into smaller, more manageable pieces. This facilitates easier handling, transportation, and further processing or smelting of the metal.
In waste management facilities, scrap metal shears help manage and reduce the volume of metal waste. By cutting down large metal objects, these machines enable more efficient storage and transportation, promoting a cleaner and more organized facility.
Steel mills use scrap metal shears to process scrap steel, which is then melted down and reformed into new steel products. This process is essential for recycling steel and reducing the demand for virgin raw materials.
Manufacturing industries generate a significant amount of metal waste during production. Scrap metal shears are used to cut and recycle these offcuts and scrap pieces, thereby minimizing waste and promoting sustainable manufacturing practices.
In the construction and demolition sectors, scrap metal shears are used to dismantle metal structures and cut metal components like beams, pipes, and rebar. This not only aids in the recycling of construction materials but also ensures that demolition waste is handled efficiently.
Precautions for the Safe Use of Metal Shears
Your Essential Safety Gear
Before you even plug in your shears, you need to gear up. Sheet metal edges are unforgiving, and the cutting process can send small, sharp fragments flying. Always wear the proper Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). Start with a good pair of cut-resistant gloves to protect your hands from sharp edges and burrs. Safety glasses are non-negotiable to shield your eyes from debris.
Proper Setup and Operation
A safe cut starts before the blade even moves. Always inspect your electric shears before use. Make sure the power cord isn’t frayed and that all safety features, especially the blade guards, are in place and functioning correctly. These guards are there for a reason: to keep your fingers away from the cutting action. When you’re ready to cut, secure the metal workpiece with clamps if possible so it doesn’t shift unexpectedly.
Workplace Safety Practices
Your immediate surroundings play a huge role in safety. A cluttered workspace is a hazardous one. Keep your cutting area clean, well-lit, and free of tripping hazards like stray cords or scrap material. Before you start a cut, make sure your footing is stable and your body is balanced. Always be aware of who is around you, and ensure others stay clear of your work zone.
Regular Inspection
Routine inspection is the foundation of any maintenance program. Operators or maintenance personnel should visually inspect the machine before and after each shift. Key areas to check include blades, blade holders, fasteners, guards, hydraulic hoses, electrical cables, and control panels.
Blade Maintenance and Adjustment
The cutting blades are the most critical components of a metal shear. Over time, blades become dull, chipped, or unevenly worn. Dull blades increase cutting force, strain the machine, and degrade cut quality. Regular blade sharpening and rotation (and occasional replacement) is essential.
Lubrication
Proper lubrication reduces friction, prevents overheating, and minimizes wear on moving parts. Components such as guide rails, bearings, gears, and sliding surfaces require regular lubrication with the correct type and amount of lubricant.
Hydraulic System Maintenance
Many metal cutting metal shears rely on hydraulic systems to generate cutting force. Maintaining this system is crucial for reliable operation. Hydraulic oil levels should be checked regularly and kept within specified limits. Contaminated or degraded oil should be replaced at recommended intervals.
Electrical and Control System Checks
Electrical components and control systems are often overlooked but are vital to machine reliability. Maintenance should include checking wiring connections, switches, sensors, and emergency stop functions. Loose connections or damaged cables can cause erratic behavior or complete machine failure.
Cleaning and Housekeeping
Keeping the machine clean is a simple yet highly effective maintenance method. Metal chips, dust, and debris can accumulate on guides, sensors, and moving parts, leading to premature wear or malfunctions. Regular cleaning improves visibility during inspections and helps maintain smooth operation.
Operator Training and Documentation
Proper maintenance is closely linked to operator knowledge. Trained operators are more likely to notice abnormal machine behavior and follow correct operating procedures. Training should include basic maintenance tasks, safety checks, and early fault recognition.
