Scotchman shears are used for cutting bar, strip and shaped steel, as well as punching holes, performing various metal notching operations. Their design allows cutting of rolled metal at an angle of forty-five degrees. These machines are widely used in procurement shops all over the world and many enterprises of mechanical engineering, aircraft-vehicle-shipbuilding, as well as agricultural machinery.
Scotchman combi press shears have their own technical features. The shear press solves many tasks for high-speed, accurate cutting of various metal products. The shear press is a quality product, simple and easy to maintain and operate.
The scissor frame consists of two sheets, which are welded together using spacers, as well as welded to the base. Their drive is carried out in the usual way from an electric motor through a V-belt transmission to the gearbox shaft. The process then goes through a gear train and then onto an eccentric shaft. Some shears are equipped with two gears and eccentric shafts. One of them is associated with sheet and grade shears. The second, through a swinging balancer and a connecting rod, is connected to a slider for punching holes. The scissor actuator is activated through a system of several levers, which are connected to the connecting rods and electromagnets. The stop at the top dead center of the actuators is carried out using adjustable stops. To hold the mechanism at the top point, spring-type balancers are used.
Tool modular blocks for cutting round and square bars, bending, channel cutting, die-cutting are interchangeable for various Scotchman models and are installed by unscrewing just two bolts. It is recommended to purchase one machine and to it additionally many replaceable tool blocks for various operations with metal rolling.
