Hydraulic Hand Shear Machines

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. Hydraulic shears are ideal for cutting steel structures at demolition sites or recycling metal girders, sheets and cables at scrap yards. The machine consists of a shear table, work-holding device, upper and lower blades, and a gauging device. The shear table is the part of the machinery that the workpiece rests on while being sheared. The work-holding device is used to hold the workpiece in place and keep it from moving or buckling while under stress.
