FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is shearing?
Shearing is a cold cutting technique for sheet metal in which two blades, one fixed and one movable, separate the material through a shearing action, without applying heat. It does not generate heat-affected zones and is particularly advantageous for fast and economical straight cuts.
What thicknesses can MAXIMA cut?
MAXIMA can be configured to process nominal thicknesses from 4 to 26 mm, depending on the machine configuration and material. With specific blades and dedicated machine sizing, thicker materials can also be processed by designing the machine according to the specific processing requirements.
What are the hydraulic adjustments for the cutting angle and blade gap used for?
The cutting angle and blade gap adjustments affect cutting quality, workpiece deformation, and blade wear. On MAXIMA, both are hydraulically adjustable via a selector according to the material and thickness, allowing operators to switch quickly between different jobs without shims or tools.
Are MAXIMA guillotine shears CNC-controlled?
As standard, MAXIMA is equipped with a single-axis controller for managing the rear back gauge, with a simple and intuitive interface. On request, CNC controls with up to four axes and a touchscreen are available, particularly for shears integrated into automated production lines.
