lemezvágó

A lemezvágó, which translates to "sheet metal cutter" in English, is a tool or machine designed for cutting sheet metal. These tools come in various forms, from simple hand-operated shears to complex industrial machinery. The primary function of a lemezvágó is to create precise cuts in metal sheets of varying thicknesses and materials, including steel, aluminum, copper, and brass.

Handheld lemezvágók, often called tin snips or aviation snips, are commonly used for smaller projects or when portability is a requirement. They operate on a scissor-like principle, allowing the user to apply leverage for cutting. Different types of snips exist, such as straight-cut, left-cut, and right-cut, each optimized for specific cutting directions and patterns.

For industrial applications and larger-scale production, powered lemezvágók are employed. These can include guillotine shears, which use a descending blade to make straight cuts across the entire width of a metal sheet, or specialized machines like laser cutters, plasma cutters, or waterjet cutters. These advanced systems offer high precision, speed, and the ability to create intricate shapes and designs in metal. The choice of lemezvágó depends on factors such as the thickness and type of metal, the desired cut quality, the production volume, and the complexity of the shape to be cut.
