Lemezvágók

Lemezvágók, often translated as sheet metal shears or plate shears, are industrial tools designed for cutting various types of sheet metal and metal plates. These machines are essential in a wide range of manufacturing and fabrication processes, from automotive production to shipbuilding and construction.

There are several primary types of lemezvágók. Guillotine shears are the most common, characterized by a straight blade that moves vertically downwards, shearing the metal against a fixed bed knife. Power is typically supplied by hydraulic or mechanical systems. Swing beam shears are another type, where the upper blade pivots on an arc, making them suitable for longer cuts and thicker materials. Nibblers are a specialized form that removes metal in small bites, creating a punched or notched edge, ideal for intricate shapes or cutting curves.

The material thickness and type that can be cut depend on the size and power of the lemezvágó. Factors such as blade length, angle, material strength, and cutting speed are critical design considerations. Safety features are paramount in the operation of these machines, often including guarding, emergency stops, and interlocks to prevent accidents. Regular maintenance, including blade sharpening and alignment, is crucial for maintaining cutting accuracy and extending the lifespan of the equipment.
