Hand Press Shear Machine

A shearing machine is a versatile hand power tool, which is used to cut through hard metal sheets, cloth, bar or plates of metal or any other material. Shear presses are used primarily for the shaping of sheet metal. Other applications can be found in the plastics industry, where the machines are also used for shaping purposes.Shearing is performed by slicing through a piece of sheet metal with a blade that's most often affixed to a tool or machine. The location of the cut is controlled by a squaring arm that allows a sheet of metal to be placed in a precise location.
