Adjusting the Shear Width

Adjusting the Panformer Shear

-shear can be set for different coil widths

-to cut efficiently blades must be adjusted


Correct Shear Setting

-the top bar is positioned so that the female leg is under the middle of the shear blade

-this gives room for the chip to curl and fall free

-this allows a clean cut that will not deform the leg

Incorrect Shear Setting

-the top bar is positioned so that the leftmost blade is too close to the female leg

-this will cause the chips to clog in the teeth of the shear

-the shear will not make a clean cut


Incorrect Shear Setting

-the shear in this picture is set to pierce the top of the leg

-this will result in an uneven and very messy cut
