The QC12Y-8*2500 is specified to shear plate up to 8 mm thickness with a maximum cutting length of 2,500 mm. Other QC12Y models are available with different thickness and length combinations.
It uses an integrated hydraulic system featuring components from Bosch‑Rexroth (Germany) for reliable, centralized hydraulic control and easier maintenance.
This is a swing beam (guillotine) action shearing machine — the upper beam swings down to shear the plate against the fixed lower blade.
The backgauge is motor‑driven for rapid positioning and the position is displayed digitally using the E21s controller paired with a Delta inverter for precise control.
The machine comes with a safety fence and electrical interlock to meet CE-style safety requirements, plus emergency stop and other standard protections. Local safety regulations must also be followed.
The knife beam stroke is adjustable in a stepless manner and the shear angle is adjustable to obtain optimal shearing quality for different materials and thicknesses.
It is suitable for shearing common sheet materials such as mild/carbon steel, stainless steel and aluminum within the machine's specified thickness limits. Material hardness and thickness influence cut quality and capacity.
Typical overall dimensions are approximately 2990 × 1700 × 1700 mm and the machine weight is about 5.0 tonnes for the QC12Y-8×2500 model (refer to the supplier drawing for exact numbers).
The machine requires a level, stable foundation and anchor bolts. Electrical supply is standard three‑phase industrial power (confirm exact voltage and frequency on order — commonly 380/400/415 V, 50/60 Hz).
Regular tasks include checking and topping hydraulic oil, changing hydraulic oil/filters per the supplier schedule (first change after break‑in ~500 hrs then every 1,000–2,000 hrs depending on use), inspecting blades for wear, checking electrical connections and lubricating moving parts.
Recommended spares include shear blades (or blade sets), hydraulic oil and filters, seals, drive belts (if applicable), fuses, and commonly used hydraulic hoses and fittings. The supplier can provide a recommended spare parts list.
Cut quality is typically high for guillotine shears: straight, burr‑free cuts when properly set up. Typical dimensional repeatability is in the range of ±0.3–0.5 mm depending on material, thickness and setup. Final tolerances depend on blade condition and backgauge accuracy.
Standard equipment includes the motorized backgauge with E21s display, Delta inverter for drive control, lighting alignment for edge positioning and the integrated hydraulic system. Optional accessories (special blades, longer backgauge travel, CNC controllers) may be available — check with the supplier.
The machine is designed with CE-style safety features (fence, electric interlock). Supplier typically offers operator training and commissioning to ensure safe use; confirm training and documentation availability at purchase.
Lead time varies by order size and configuration (commonly several weeks). Delivery is usually by sea with the machine crated. The manufacturer typically offers a standard warranty (commonly 12 months) and after‑sales support — confirm exact lead time, shipping terms and warranty with the supplier or sales representative.
