By combining HACO's long experience in shearing machines and state of the art technology throughout the design, the SST range of shears maintain consistent performance under a wide range of conditions. The Swing-Beam movement of the cutting beam under a low rake angle ensures optimum quality of the cut and minimises the distortion of the sheet, even when cutting narrow strips. This results in less wear on the cutting blades, as the blades will make contact at one point only.

The down stroke beam movement is produced by hydraulic pressure, the return by nitrogen pressure. This simple working principle and the lack of wear sensitive guidings result in a virtually maintenance free machine. The high rigidity solid frame is of welded steel construction and ensures high stability, precision and long-term reliability. The shears provide complete overload protection. The backgauge which follows the rotary movement of the cutting beam, assures an optimum sheet removal.

Rapid and precise blade clearance adjustment by single handle on the side frame. This economical, maintenance-friendly machine offers the operator a precise cut at high working speed.
