Sawing

When you need to cut material to size and length, the right machine depends on what you are cutting. Guillotine shears blank sheet and plate in straight, high-volume runs, band saws power through solid bar and structural stock, and miter saws cut aluminum extrusion and profiles to length. This is the equipment that turns stock into ready-to-work blanks.

How to Choose

For straight-line, high-volume blanking of sheet and plate, a guillotine shear is hard to beat. Durma has manufactured shears since 1956, and the VS shear offers variable rake adjustment from 0°30' to 2°, so you can dial in the cut and hold down twist and bow on the blank. If your work is squaring up sheet and plate in volume, the shear is the foundation.

When you are cutting solid bar and structural stock, a band saw is the right tool. It powers through round, square, and structural sections that a shear cannot handle, cutting them clean and square for the next operation.

For aluminum extrusion and profiles, a miter saw cuts to length with the angle accuracy that frame and assembly work demands. Match the saw to your stock and you keep the right machine on the right material.
