Shearing Machine

About the Company

The straight, clean cut everything else depends on

Shivam Technomech is a preeminent Shearing Machine Manufacturer, providing hydraulic and NC hydraulic shearing machines for industrial applications of sheet metal fabrication. A reliable shearing machine facilitates manufacturers in carrying out sheet metal cutting in an efficient manner.

The machinery is intended for use in fabrication workshops, mechanical industries, panel making, machine making, railway industries, and sheet metal fabrication at large.

What Is a Shearing Machine?

An industrial machine designed to cut sheet metal or plates along a straight line. Shearing differs from machining and thermal cutting in that it cuts by applying force with the cutting mechanism to separate the sheet.

Choose Your System

Hydraulic & NC Hydraulic Shearing

The right choice depends on your manufacturing needs — volume, sheet size, thickness, cut length, accuracy and how often operations repeat.

Hydraulic Shearing Machine

Hydraulic shearing machines employ hydraulic power to drive the shearing mechanism. They have wide application in industrial fabrication since hydraulic power can supply the necessary cutting force for the appropriate sheet or plate material.

  • Wide industrial fabrication use
  • Supplies necessary cutting force
  • Suits sheet and plate material
  • Fits into multi-cut production lines

A hydraulic shearing machine can become an integral part of a production line where sheets undergo multiple cuts prior to bending or fabrication processes.

NC Hydraulic Shearing Machine

NC hydraulic shearing machines utilize numerical control in the cutting process — advantageous when the operator needs more control over the cutting task.

Numerical control is especially useful in batch production, where certain parameters can be set for repeated use across a run of identical cuts.

The Shearing Process

How a Shearing Machine Works

Four steps take a raw sheet to a checked, ready-to-use blank.

Positioning of Material

Sheet metal is placed on the shearing machine in accordance with the dimensions needed for cutting.

Setting Parameters

Machine parameters are set based on the material and dimensions required for cutting.

Cutting

Force is applied using the blades of the machine to cut the material.

Testing

The cut-out piece is checked for dimensions and quality.

Why It Pays Off

Advantages of a Shearing Machine

Faster Straight Cutting

Shearing is a faster method of cutting straight lines in sheet metal.

Less Manual Cutting

Machinery makes use of less manual cutting procedures.

Maintainable Dimensions

Machine setup ensures manufacturers can maintain the same cutting dimensions.

Increased Production Process

Cuts done correctly can go directly into bending, punching, welding and other processes.

Ideal for Production

Hydraulic and NC shearing machines are useful for production-scale needs.

Better Preparation

Good cuts are a good start for every other process using the sheet metal.

Output

Use of Shearing Machines

A shearing machine is widely used for preparing metal sheets ahead of further processing. For instance, a fabrication firm may buy metal sheets in bulk, cut them to blank sizes on the shearing machine, then send the blanks to the press brake for bending.

Where It's Used

Applications of Shearing Machines

Shearing machines are applied in the preparation of sheets for structural and general fabrication work.
Panel body and enclosure manufacturing processes may need accurate cuts on the sheets beforehand.
The mechanical engineering industry uses sheets in assembling machinery parts.
The machine manufacturing industry makes use of shearing machines for preparing fabricated components.
The railway industry engages in fabrication and manufacturing processes using sheet and plate metal products.
Sheet metal workshops engage in straight-cutting operations using shearing machines.
Making the Right Call

Hydraulic vs. NC Shearing — What Fits Your Line?

This depends on your manufacturing needs. A regular hydraulic shearing machine may suit situations where the operator controls the process manually — an NC hydraulic machine proves useful where repetition demands more numerical control.

01
Hydraulic Shearing Machine

Best where the operator controls the process manually and cutting needs are straightforward.

VS
02
NC Hydraulic Shearing Machine

Proves useful where repetitive operations demand more numerical control over parameters.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

The major function of a shearing machine is to cut sheet metal or plate material along a straight line to form blanks or parts of specific measurements.
It is a type of shearing machine that uses hydraulic power to develop the force needed for cutting suitable sheet and plate materials.
It is a shearing machine that utilizes numerical control to have greater control over specific cutting procedures and parameters.
Yes, but only if the machine capacity, tools and parameters are compatible with the material thickness.
Shearing is normally a mechanical process of cutting material along a cutting line. Cutting can also refer to other procedures such as mechanical, thermal, laser or plasma cutting.
Yes. Shearing and press brake machines are normally used in combination in the fabrication of sheet metal parts — shearing cuts the blank while the press brake bends the material.
