Welcome To Guillotine Source
www.guillotinesource.co.uk is the place to buy a new or used guillotine.
Guillotine machines, renowned for their clean finish when cutting sheet metal, used to be hand or foot operated, but are increasingly motor powered. Newer models use the latest CNC – computer numerical control – technology, so the equipment can be pre-programmed for greater accuracy and ease of use.
A metal guillotine works by driving down an angled blade so that it slices the raw material along the length of the cut. It’s all part of what is known as a fracturing process - the blade partially cuts through the metal, but the final separation is due to the material fracturing.
Some materials – like stainless steel - fracture more readily than softer ones like brass, which can influence the effectiveness of the guillotine. Because the blades must be strong as well as sharp, guillotine blades are typically square edged rather than knife edged.
Before you buy, bear in mind that the angle of the cutting blade – also known as the shear - will depend on the capacity of the machine and the thickness of the material you use. The thicker the material is, the greater the angle and clearance given to the blades. It is important because the clearance involved affects the finish of the cut or burr of the guillotine and the machine\\\\\\\'s power consumption.
Guillotines range from small models used by jewellers and hobbyists to the large, heavy duty bench guillotine used in industry.
Whatever you need, you’ll find all types of guillotine at www.guillotinesource.co.uk.
A metal guillotine is a simple and convenient device used to cut sheet metal leaving every sheet with a straight, clean edge. There are also more complex and modern guillotines available which include mechanical guillotines, swing beam guillotines and hydraulic guillotines. These examples may require specialized training and extreme care, but they are used in many industries, large and small.
Some companies need to invest in a high-volume guillotine for frequent usage, while smaller businesses may be looking for a simple, reliable bench guillotine for more occasional use. There are guillotines available now for everybody according to your particular requirements and budget. An established and reputable supplier will be able to offer you a selection of guillotines to choose from, so you can find the one that will offer the most to your business. Purchasing the most suitable metal guillotine will save you time and money, as well as helping to create a professional image for your company\'s products.
There are three basic ways to narrow down your choice of guillotine: by type, by manufacturer or by cutting size. Heavy duty guillotines require more storage space and are a safe manual option for a business looking to accurately and quickly cut large amounts of metal. Heavy duty guillotines can cut large numbers of sheets simultaneously and accurately and are generally easy to operate.
The more modern CNC operated guillotines are an impressive high-tech, high volume solution for all industries, who need to produce large quantities of professionally-cut metal for a range of business purposes.
