What is an alligator shear? The alligator shear is also known as the ‘Crocodile shearing machine’, which is widely used for cold shearing various shapes of steel and various metal structures into small pieces and qualified charge. This shearing process makes the transportation and recycling more convenient. The scrap metal alligator shear is a necessary equipment for waste metal recycling plants, scrapped car dismantling plants, smelting and casting industries. The process principle of the alligator shearing machine is to extract the hydraulic oil in the hydraulic oil tank through the motor, and the reversing action of the reversing valve is used to drive the oil cylinder to run and cut into small pieces of metal scrap. The alliagtor shear consists of shearing frame (cast iron), blade, pressure plate, protective cover, operating table (automatic electric operation box), electrical system, reversing solenoid valve, oil pump, motor, oil tank, air cooling, shearing cylinder, pressure material grease cylinder. The features of the alligator shear The alligator shear powered by the hydraulic cylinder, which is easy to operate and easy to maintain. The length of the working blade: 400mm, 600mm, 700mm, 800mm, 1000mm and 1200mm. The alligator shear with the blade ≥700mm is especially suitable for cutting scrapped cars. We also support customized alligator shear, tell us your requirements. Small size, light weight, low inertia, low noise, stable action, convenient operation, flexibility, large shearing section, and convenient adjustment of the scissors. Safe operation and easy to achieve overload protection. How to choose an suitable alligator shear? The following tips for your reference: Ensure what kind of the materials to cut. Ensure the blade size the alligator shear you need. Ensure the capacity of the alligator shear you need for one hour. Consider the service the machine.
