Alpha™ Mach III Flying Shears: 1 inch (25.4 mm) to 5 inch (127 mm) OD with a max wall of 0.250 inches (6.35 mm) Special
Alpha™ High Speed Flying Shears provide tube producers with the highest cuts per minute at speeds up to 1000 fpm (300 mpm). The patented Alpha™ double-cut dieset cuts dimple-free ready-for-market product directly off the mill. High precision cut capacity (± 0.039 inches (1.0 mm) at full speed) eliminates the need for expensive post-processing and enables the producer to deliver cut-to-length pieces directly to secondary operations or to the end user.
All Alpha™ Flying Shears utilize a high performance rack and pinion drive which reduces cut cycle times making short part length production a reality. Closed-loop servo control ensures constant monitoring of tube speed, dieset position/velocity and ram position. The final result is high cut-length accuracy and the shortest cycle times available.
Ideally suited for high tensile profiles at high production rates.
Features
Capability to cut tube diameters up to 6.625 inch
Short cut lengths possible, without extended cycle times from a saw cut
Double flywheel and flying ram enable short part lengths with a wall thickness up to 0.25 inches
Distortion free shearing at high speeds with the double-cut dieset option
Heavy duty press frame, totally enclosed for maximum safety.
High performance rack and pinion drive system for superior length control
Upright or Inclined (for non-round geometries) orientations available
Single or Double cut dieset option available
Programmable for multiple batch production
System diagnostics and simple maintenance fault display
