Metal Shearing

The shearing process is performed on a shear machine, often called a squaring shear or power shear, that can be operated manually (by hand or foot) or by hydraulic, pneumatic, or electric power. A typical shear machine includes a table with support arms to hold the sheet, stops or guides to secure the sheet, upper and lower straight-edge blades, and a gauging device to precisely position the sheet. The sheet is placed between the upper and lower blade, which are then forced together against the sheet, cutting the material.

If you’re familiar with metal fabrication techniques, you might be curious about the distinction between shearing and die cutting. In truth, they’re both cutting or finishing procedures that employ a blade to remove extra material or form sheet metal into a desired shape. The major distinction is that shearing utilizes straight-edge blades, whereas die cutting uses curved blades.

In most devices, the lower blade remains stationary while the upper blade is forced downward. The upper blade is slightly offset from the lower blade, approximately 5-10% of the sheet thickness. Also, the upper blade is usually angled so that the cut progresses from one end to the other, thus reducing the required force. The blades used in these machines typically have a square edge rather than a knife edge and are available in different materials, such as low-alloy steel and high-carbon steel.

Shearing Metal

Shearing tools and equipment are essential in fabrication. For a smooth, accurate, and tough finish, there will surely be a selection of these tools that are appropriate for various shearing tasks. Numerous types of metal sheets, including aluminum, steel, and stainless steel, vary in their cutting style and aesthetic. Arkayenggworks specializes in Shearing Metal Services.
