Treadle Guillotine Shearing Machine

Treadle guillotine shearing machines are indispensable in sheet metal industries as they lead amongst all on account of versatile design, rigid construction, rigorous tests for the capacities and appearance. They are specially designed for rapid and continuous cutting of steel sheets of varied widths and trimming them in unlimited lengths. Available in cast iron body or in all steel construction. Features : High tesile springs for quick return of treadle. 4 Cutting edged hardened and ground quality blades. Rigid and streamlined construction. Spring loaded sheet holding device. Tradle guillotine shearing machines are designed to cut sheets of ferrous and non-ferrous metals of the following capacities.     Inches S.W.G. Mild steel, 26 tons tensile 0.048 18 Stainless steel annealed, 50 tons tensile 0.022 24 Brass, hard, 36 tons tensile   0.032 21 Brass, half hard, 30 tons tensile 0.040 19 Copper, hard 20 tons tensile 0.064 16 Copper, soft annealed 16 tons tensile 0.072 15 Aluminium, half hard, 16 tons tensile 0.072 15 Aluminium, copper alloy 40 tons tensile 0.028 22 Duraluminium, 28 tons tensile 0.040 19   In every machine, the bed and top beam have full adjustments for correct setting and easy removal of blades for accurate cutting and for regrinding. The spring loaded pressure pad holds the sheets firmly while shearing thereby giving the perfect parallelism of cutting on either side. The adjustable front and back gauges with running Tee slots facilitate adjustment of various widths of the cuts and avoid any kind of twistings, turning of sheets while cutting. Square guide on the side of the table facilitates square cuts. The cutting edge blades avoid frequent grinding and adjustment and also very easy to grind to the rectangular shape and are manufactured in collaboration with very good German firm. Highly compared English springs balance the treadle to correct level. The top beam guides are adjustable for compensating wear and tear as also setting of the upper blade. These blades can be used with slight change in cutting angle to ribs, plastics, card board, rubber, mica etc., without any sign of squeezing or crushing.
