Frequently asked questions about lever shears:

Up to what thickness can steel sheets be cut with a lever shear?


The cutting capacity of a lever shear in sheet steel is limited by the lever mechanism and the length of the lever. With the Bernardo lever shears from the BHM Maschinen online shop, you can precisely cut steel sheets up to 8 mm thick without much effort, depending on the version. The cutting performance is also very high for other materials and profiles. For example, round steel can be cut with a Bernardo PBS 22 sheet and profile steel shear with a diameter of up to 22 mm.
 

Is the maximum cutting length of a lever shear for sheet metal limited?



No. The cutting length of a lever shear for sheet metal is not limited. The two blades of the shears are designed in such a way that when the shears are open, sheets can be pushed through to the end of the cut. From this point, a new cut can be made, seamlessly following the previous cut. In this way, even very long cuts can be made precisely. The same applies to the hand shears from the BHM Maschinen Onlineshop. With these lever shears, large metal sheets can also be completely cut through despite the limited cutting length of the blades.
 

Which materials can be cut with lever shears?



Different metals can be cut with a lever shear. For example, sheets of steel, aluminium, brass and copper. Depending on the equipment of the machine, profiles and round bars can also be cut. In addition to cutting metal sheets and profiles, it is also possible to cut plastic sheets and, within narrow limits, plastic profiles. However, only relatively soft and tough plastics such as polypropylene, polyethylene and ABS or nylon can be cut with lever shears. Brittle materials such as acrylic glass are not suitable for cutting with lever shears for sheet metal.
 

What is the function of a hold-down device on lever shears for sheet metal?


As the name suggests, the hold-down device on a lever shear is used to fix or hold down the sheet before and after cutting. The hold-down is especially important when working on larger workpieces, as they often shift after being aligned before the cut. Also after the cut, when the knives rub along the cutting edge, the workpieces can be lifted and shifted. The hold-down prevents this by fixing the workpieces in position.

 

Can a lever shear from the BHM Maschinen online shop be repaired?


Every lever shear from our online shop is very robust and durable thanks to its extremely stable construction and design. If necessary, a lever shear from our online shop can be repaired with great effort. Replacement blades, among other things, are available for each of our lever shears and can be fitted in just a few simple steps. However, replacement of the blades is only necessary if the last blades used can no longer be reworked.
