Guillotine Shearing Machine Side View

True Linear Cutting. Superior Accuracy. Zero Compromise.

The KAVDO Guillotine Shearing Machine represents the pinnacle of hydraulic shearing technology. Unlike swing beam shears, the guillotine design uses precision linear guides to move the upper blade beam in a perfectly straight vertical path, maintaining a uniform blade gap across the entire cutting length for unparalleled cut accuracy and consistency.

With automatic blade gap adjustment, variable rake angle control and advanced CNC multi-axis positioning, this machine excels at cutting thick plates and narrow strips with minimal twist and distortion. The three-point rolling guide system eliminates lateral deflection, ensuring every cut meets the tightest dimensional tolerances.

  • Three-point linear guide for true straight-line blade motion
  • Automatic blade gap adjustment via CNC controller
  • Variable rake angle for optimized cutting force on every job
  • CNC back gauge with ±0.02 mm servo positioning accuracy
  • Heavy-duty capacity up to 40 mm × 12000 mm

Key Advantages

The guillotine shearing machine delivers the highest level of cut precision, consistency and capacity — engineered for operations where quality and reliability are non-negotiable.

Unmatched Cut Precision

The linear blade guide system maintains a perfectly uniform gap between upper and lower blades across the full cutting length, producing consistently straight cuts with minimal twist — even on narrow strips and thick plates.

Automatic Blade Gap

The CNC controller automatically calculates and adjusts the blade clearance based on material type and thickness input. No manual adjustment needed — just enter the parameters and start cutting with optimal settings every time.

Variable Rake Angle Control

CNC-controlled variable rake angle adjusts automatically from job to job. Lower rake angle for thin sheets minimizes bowing; higher rake for thick plates reduces cutting force. All optimized without stopping production.

Heavy-Duty Capacity

Available with cutting capacity up to 40 mm × 12000 mm for the most demanding heavy plate cutting applications. Robust frame design and powerful hydraulic system handle continuous high-tonnage operation without fatigue.

Advanced Safety Systems

Full-length safety fence, rear guard, Type 4 safety light curtain, hydraulic overload protection and emergency stop system. CE and ISO 13849 PL-e compliant for the highest international safety standards.

Smart CNC Controller

DAC-360 or Cybelec touch-screen CNC controller with multi-axis control, program storage, cutting parameter database, automatic blade gap and rake angle calculation — dramatically reducing setup time and operator skill requirements.

Machine Structure

Every component is precision-engineered for maximum rigidity, accuracy and longevity — delivering consistent cutting performance over decades of heavy-duty industrial use.

Guillotine Shearing Machine Structure Diagram
  • 1

    All-Steel Welded Frame

    Heavy-duty monolithic steel frame, stress-relieved and CNC-machined on all guide surfaces, provides exceptional rigidity and vibration dampening for precise cuts at full rated capacity.

  • 2

    Three-Point Linear Guide System

    The blade beam is supported by precision rolling linear guides on three points — two at the rear and one at the front — ensuring perfectly straight vertical blade travel with zero lateral deflection.

  • 3

    Integrated Hydraulic System

    Dual-cylinder synchronized hydraulic system with Bosch-Rexroth proportional valves and servo pump delivers precise, responsive control of blade speed, position and pressure throughout the stroke.

  • 4

    Servo CNC Back Gauge

    High-precision servo-driven ball screw back gauge with ±0.02 mm positioning accuracy. Multi-finger design with independent adjustment for parallel and tapered cutting programs.

  • 5

    Hydraulic Hold-Down Clamps

    Independent hydraulic hold-down cylinders with pressure compensation maintain even clamping force across the full cutting length, preventing sheet movement and ensuring distortion-free results.

Guillotine Shearing Process

From material loading to finished cut — a precision-controlled cycle that delivers consistent, high-quality results with minimal operator intervention.

1

Program & Position

Enter material type, thickness and cut dimensions into the CNC controller. The system automatically calculates blade gap and rake angle. Feed the sheet against the servo-positioned back gauge fingers.

2

Clamp & Verify

Hydraulic hold-down clamps engage with calibrated pressure, securing the sheet firmly at the cut line. The shadow line light confirms alignment before the operator initiates the shearing stroke.

3

Precision Shearing

The blade beam descends in a perfectly straight path along the linear guides. The angled blade progressively shears the material from one side to the other with precisely controlled force and speed.

4

Return & Auto-Advance

The blade beam rapidly returns to the top position via nitrogen accumulator assist. The back gauge automatically advances to the next programmed position for continuous batch cutting.

Optional Equipment

Enhance your guillotine shear with advanced accessories and automation options to maximize productivity and precision for your specific applications.
