INDUSTRY COMPONENT

Shear Blade / Die

Precision cutting component for torch or shear machines that cleanly separates metal sheets or plates.

Component Specifications

Definition
A specialized industrial cutting component designed for torch or shear cutting machines, consisting of precisely engineered blades or dies that apply controlled mechanical force to sever metal materials along predetermined lines. These components maintain sharp cutting edges and dimensional stability to ensure clean, burr-free cuts with minimal material deformation.
Working Principle
Operates through controlled mechanical shearing action where two precisely aligned cutting edges (one stationary, one moving) apply concentrated force to exceed the material's shear strength, causing clean fracture along the cutting line with minimal plastic deformation.
Materials
High-carbon tool steel (D2, A2), tungsten carbide, or ceramic composites with hardness ratings of 58-65 HRC, often featuring wear-resistant coatings like TiN, TiCN, or diamond-like carbon (DLC).
Technical Parameters
  • Hardness 58-65 HRC
  • Thickness 10-50 mm
  • Tolerance ±0.05 mm
  • Blade Length 500-3000 mm
  • Cutting Angle 1-3 degrees
  • Max Cutting Force 50-500 kN
Standards
ISO 9013, DIN 2310, ISO 9010
