Gantry Shear is a large industrial shearing equipment, mainly used in the metal processing industry, for efficient and accurate cutting of metal plates, bars, profiles, etc. Its name comes from its structural design - a frame-type rack similar to a "gantry", which has the characteristics of high stability, strong shearing force, and a wide range of applications. The following is a detailed introduction to the gantry shear
Structure and composition
1.Gantry frame: A rigid frame consisting of two side columns and a top crossbeam ensures the stability of the equipment under high load.
2.Hydraulic system: Provides shearing power, drives the blade through a hydraulic cylinder to complete the cutting, and the shearing force can reach hundreds to thousands of tons.
3.Blade: The upper blade is fixed and the lower blade is movable. The material is mostly high-strength alloy steel and can be replaced to adapt to different materials.
4.Feeding system: Some models are equipped with automatic feeding devices (such as conveyor belts or rollers) to improve efficiency.
5.Control system: PLC or CNC system controls the shearing length, speed and pressure, and supports automated operation.
