STANDARD PLATE SHEAR - Model CS

In addition to the Standard model AS hydraulic plate shear, we now offer an economical model CS shear in ¼” x 10’ and ¼” x 12’ and 3/8” x 10’ and 3/8” x 12’ capacities.  The CS is an extremely affordable version of the model AS shear that has been manufactured for over 30 years.   

Model CS250-10 (1/4” x 10’ capacity) shear shown with all standard features and 5 year parts warranty.

The model CS hydraulic shear has the same hydra-mechanical, guillotine straight line cutting action drive system as the AS, as well as the 5 year parts and limited labor warranty.  Like the AS, the CS also comes standard with our 36” travel, PLC controlled backgauge with “Go-To” and multi-level programming.  The main difference between the AS and the CS is that the CS is only available in the ¼” and 3/8” x 10’ and 12’  capacities and it is only available with a limited amount of options, whereas the AS is available in many lengths and capacities and has a wider variety of options to choose from.

The incredibly simple, quick change manual blade gap adjustment  provides a positive mechanical adjustment via precision machined tapered gibbs

An advantage of the Standard Model CS is that it comes with many features that the Standard Model AS does not come with.  Like the AS, the CS comes standard with an extremely heavy duty frame; Industrial quality electrics; 80,000 P.S.I. steel capacity, and the same high quality, readily available components. Unlike the AS however, the CS also comes standard with a manual quick change blade gap adjustment; a quantity of (2) hand slots and (2) t-slots in the shear table; a 4’ squaring arm with imbedded scale and an impressive list of other standard features (see below).
