HSK GUILLOTINE SHEARS

//

Three various shear sizes for different cutting lengths and sheet metal thicknesses.
HSK/L/G/W / HSK/N / HSK/S

Guillotine shears made by HSK are stand-alone, motor driven machines with electrical control mostly used for cutting or trimming flat sheet metal.

It is also possible to cut other various materials like plastics, CFRP/GFRP, fleece material, foam or precious metals, mainly in form of sheets, but also formed work pieces like deep‑drawing parts and profiled sheet metals or directly from a coil.

Depending on the requirements concerning cutting length, cutting force and cutting speed, the shear drive is realised either by a strong bevel gear motor or by a AC-motor, fly‑wheel and clutch-brake-combination – in special cases also by a servo motor.

We differentiate between the three various shear sizes HSK/L/G/W, HSK/N and HSK/S which are manufactured for different cutting lengths and sheet metal thicknesses. Hereby the customer is able to choose the most fitting HSK-guillotine for his purposes.

GUILLOTINE SHEARS
FOR PLATE PRODUCTION

 

For the production of printed aluminum or steel plates, a special guillotine shear with a motor driven front stop has been developed. This guillotine shear cuts plates with the required precision, that means maximum accuracy as well as minimal burr formation and distortion.

Shears for plate production cut with rates up to 30 cuts per minute or more, according to the plate dimensions. Because of that, usually the dive unit is realized with a clutch-break-combination, but also converter controlled AC motors or servomotors can be used.

TRIMMING SHEARS
FOR DEEP-DRAWN PARTS

 

In process of manufacturing plastic deep-drawn parts, the border zone has to be removed after the deep-drawing process which is usually realized with exact milling. However, the deep-drawn part can only be stress-free milled after the border zone where the component was clamped got removed beforehand.

To trim the border of deep-drawn parts before milling, a special eccentric shear has been developed.

GUILLOTINE SHEARS FOR
CUTTING DIRECTLY OF A COIL

 

To meet customers demand, our guillotine shears can be modified to cut sheet metal or plastic directly of a coil, instead of realizing this with a very expansive production line. Therefore, a coil holder is mounted in front of the shear and a feeding unit is integrated into the special manufactured shear table.

The control of the guillotine shear is accordingly extended with a positioning control unit to program variable feed lengths. The drive unit of the feed roll can be realized with an AC gear motor or servo motor accordingly to the required performance. The length measurement is realized with a suitable rotary encoder.

GUILLOTINE SHEARS FOR CORRUGATED- & TRAPEZOIDAL SHEET METAL

 

Corrugated and trapezoidal sheet metal is manufactured in long production lines by roll forming. A strong punch cut then cuts the sheet metal into standard sizes for example lengths of 15 m. Therefore, it is usually unavoidable to make up the sheet metal webs.

For this purpose, a special section shear has been developed which allows to cut the already formed sheet metal to length. This machine works like a normal guillotine shear with a slanted cut, compared to a punch cut, in order to cut the profiled sheet metal with lower shear forces and noise emissions. The upper and lower blades are formed according to the shape of the formed sheet metal, as well as the hold down and plastic on the shear table.
