Typical Applications

Straight shearing of mild steel (MS) plates for fabrication and maintenance workshops.
Plate cutting for tanks, ducts, enclosures, and structural parts in power, cement, and steel plants.
Stock preparation in shipyards, railways, defence workshops, and EPC fabrication yards.
General-purpose plate shearing where reliability, cut quality, and serviceability are important considerations.

• The Hydraulic Shearing Machine is a guillotine-type shear designed for accurate, repeatable plate cutting under shop-floor conditions.
• Rigid, welded steel frame designed to withstand continuous cutting loads with minimal deflection.
• Hydraulic hold-down system ensures uniform clamping across the cutting width, reducing sheet movement during shear.
• Pre-calibrated manual blade clearance adjustment for burr-free cutting across a range of plate thicknesses.
• Hardened and ground four-edge interchangeable top and bottom blades suitable for MS plates.
• Robust back gauge supported on hardened guides for repeatable length control.
• Powerful electrical and hydraulic systems designed for ease of operation and long-term maintenance.

Material Thickness	Rake Angle	Effect on Machine & Cut Quality
Thick plates (near max capacity)	High rake angle	Reduces cutting force, protects hydraulics and the frame, allows higher thickness to be cut safely.
Nominal / regular production thickness	Mid (nominal) rake angle	Balanced operation — optimal capacity, stable cutting, long machine life.
Thin plates / strips	Low rake angle	Minimises material twisting (“corkscrewing”), improves straightness and cut accuracy.

Cutting capacities are rated for mild steel with UTS 42 kg/mm².
Higher thicknesses, wider beds, and customised configurations are available on request.
Actual capacity depends on plate width, material grade, and blade condition.
Choose a machine where your most frequently cut thickness lies at the nominal (mid) rake angle.
This provides capacity headroom for thicker plates and precision control for thinner material.
