WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR?
When it comes to sheet metal fabrication, selecting the right shearing machine directly impacts your cutting quality, production efficiency, and long-term operating costs. The two most common types are guillotine shears and swing beam shears, each designed for different application scenarios and production requirements.
Guillotine shears feature a vertical cutting motion that delivers superior straightness and consistency, making them ideal for high-precision cutting of thick plates (6mm and above). Swing beam shears offer faster cutting speeds and simpler maintenance, perfect for general-purpose sheet metal processing with moderate precision requirements.
Key factors to consider include maximum cutting thickness, cutting length, blade material, CNC control capabilities, and overall machine rigidity. At Sanxin, our QC11K guillotine and QC12K swing beam shearing machines feature three-point support guides, four-edge high-quality blades, and adjustable shear angles to deliver clean, burr-free cuts every time. Equipped with dedicated CNC systems for precise positioning and segmented cutting, our shearing machines are built to handle the demands of modern sheet metal workshops.
Guillotine shears use vertical blade movement for superior cutting straightness and precision, ideal for thick plates (6mm+). Swing beam shears feature an arc-shaped cutting motion, offering faster speed and simpler maintenance, perfect for general-purpose sheet metal processing.
Calculate based on your maximum plate thickness, width, and material type. As a rule of thumb, choose a machine with 20-30% extra capacity beyond your regular needs. For example, if you typically cut 4mm mild steel, go for a 6mm capacity machine for safety margin.
Our shearing machines can cut various metals including mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum, copper, and brass. The maximum cutting capacity varies by material due to different yield strengths—stainless steel typically has about 60% of the mild steel capacity rating.
With normal use, our high-quality blades last 1-2 years depending on material thickness and hardness. All blades are four-edged, meaning you can rotate them three times before needing sharpening. We also offer blade sharpening services and replacement blades.
Yes, we provide comprehensive remote installation guidance and operator training via video call. Our engineers will walk you through machine setup, basic operation, daily maintenance, and common troubleshooting. We also provide detailed operation manuals and video tutorials for future reference.
We look forward to working with you!
