Shuliy metal shear machine, also known as a “tiger-head shearing machine”, is to cut scrap metal like light steel materials, copper tubes, iron sheets, etc. into the required sizes. It can cut metal waste 5-8 times per minute, which is adjustable.

Our hydraulic metal cutting machine has working widths of 1m and 1.2m(the blade opening size). We can also customize it to meet your demands.

This machine has two blades, one to press waste metal and another one to cut scrap. For convenient metal cutting, the chain feeder is optional.

Our hydraulic metal shearing machine is very popular because of its powerful shearing applications, safe and simple operation, continuous cutting, and high production efficiency.

If you’re looking for a solution for scrap like steel tubes, this metal cutting shear is your ideal choice.

Working principle of shear metal cutting machine

The working principle of the tiger-head metal shear machine is to use the hydraulic system to drive the cutter head.

Place the scrap metal material under the cutter head, and the cutter head is pressed down by the hydraulic power to complete the cutting operation.

The sheared metal block can be adjusted to the required size for easy storage and transportation.

Supportive equipment for metal shear cutter

The hydraulic metal shearing machine can be connected to a chainplate feeder for automatic feeding.

The chain plate feeder realizes smooth feeding, avoiding the material bulge of the traditional conveying mechanism.

Tips on choosing metal shear machine

When purchasing a metal shear, it is important to ensure that the equipment is capable of meeting the processing requirements.

In order to purchase an economical and practical hydraulic metal cutting machine, it is recommended to pay attention to the following points:

  1. Clarify the size and material of waste. This will help you to choose the appropriate tonnage of the machine to ensure shearing efficiency and effectiveness.
  2. Choose special blades for special materials. Special materials or wastes have great hardness. So, you need special blades to reduce the trouble of replacement.
  3. Select equipment that is easy to install and operate. The integrated design of the equipment does not require complicated installation, is easy to operate, and helps improve work efficiency.
