Shears
Mechanical Cold Shears CADDY Series
The CADDY horizontal mechanical shears have distinguished themselves throughout the world due to their extreme high productivity and corresponding low cost per slug. The horizontal shearing action allows easy clearance compensated angle shearing to virtually eliminate shear face angularity. The CADDY produces the highest dimensional accuracy possible to fully utilize today's net and near net forging technologies.
The ability to adjust the shearing plane to eliminate shear face angularity makes the CADDY well suited to shear even low tensile strength materials.
- The horizontal slide engagement eliminates the need for a special foundation.
- Quick blade clearance adjustments and 15 minute blade changes makes even short production runs practical.
- Hydraulic clutch for high performance, long life and noise reduction (Model CADDY 52 and larger).
- Low maintenance cost
