This heavy-duty hydraulic sheet metal shear, the SH-5210-HD, is built with a welded steel frame, ensuring a long lifespan and high productivity when cutting thick materials. Its adjustable blade gap and rake angle guarantee top - quality cuts. It has a 52 - inch cutting length and can handle 10 - gauge mild steel at maximum, with a minimum capacity of 24 - gauge mild steel. Powered by a 7.5 - hp motor running on 220 - volt 3 - phase power, it features an industrial - grade hydraulic system at the front for easy fluid changes. With 35 to 47 strokes per minute, it offers speedy production. The shearing carriage rides on hardened ways and uses heavy - duty bearings to reduce friction. A manually adjustable 23.62 - inch backgauge ensures precise repeatability. The heavy - duty table with roller bars makes it easier to slide materials into the machine. Side gauges keep the cut at 90 degrees without the need for a guiding line. You can switch between jog, single - cycle, and automatic cycling modes as required. The adjustable rake angle dial helps fit material thickness, minimizing burr and reducing strain on hydraulics. The convenient blade gap adjustment eliminates folding and twisting. It comes with high - carbon chromium blades, with 2 - sided upper and 4 - sided lower blades that can be flipped and resharpened to save money. Hydraulic hold - downs clamp the sheet firmly to the table, improving blade life. The rigid, fully welded steel plate construction prevents flex and ensures long - term accuracy. A shadow line provides a reference for the cut. It also comes with a 1 - year parts warranty.
Using the SH - 5210 - HD hydraulic sheet metal shear is easy. First, make sure the machine is connected to a 220 - volt 3 - phase power source. Then, adjust the blade gap and rake angle according to the thickness of the sheet metal you're working with. This will help you get clean cuts and reduce burrs. You can use the side gauges to keep your cuts at 90 degrees, or rely on the shadow line for a clear reference of where the cut will be. The machine has three modes: jog mode for inching the blade down, single - cycle mode for one cut per pedal push, and automatic cycling mode for continuous cutting during production runs. When it comes to maintenance, regularly check the hydraulic fluid and change it when needed, as the hydraulic system is located at the front for easy access. Keep the shearing carriage and bearings clean to reduce friction. Also, when the blades start to dull, you can flip and resharpen them to save on costs. Remember, the specifications of this machine may change without notice, so always refer to the latest information. And it's covered by a 1 - year parts warranty, so if you encounter any issues with the parts, you're in good hands.
