Metal Shear Repair

Blade gap, back gauge, hydraulics, and control faults on metal shears, guillotine and plate shears alike. Most calls start with a shear cutting out of square, and most of those are corrected without hydraulic work.

WHAT WE DO

Most shear calls come in as a stroke that will not complete or a cut that has drifted out of tolerance. Hydraulic shear repair is diagnosed in order: pressure first, then the control circuit, then the mechanical adjustment.

Pressure loss traces back to a worn seal, a failing valve, or a pump that has lost capacity, and the source is confirmed before parts are quoted. Shear machine service covers blade gap and shear blade adjustment, back gauge calibration, and the control and foot pedal circuits that trigger the stroke. Guillotine shear repair and plate shear repair follow the same path regardless of tonnage. Safety guarding and interlocks are checked and reported on every visit, not only when something has already gone wrong, and the machine is cut tested against your tolerance before we sign off.
