https://www.zdmt-machine.com/qc11y-8×3200-hydraulic-guillotine-shear.html

Product Overview

The QC11Y-8X3200 Hydraulic Guillotine Shearing Machine, also designated as ZDG-832, is designed for industrial sheet metal cutting operations requiring a maximum cutting thickness of 8 mm and a maximum cutting length of 3,200 mm. Equipped with an Estun E21S controller, the machine provides backgauge positioning control to support efficient material alignment and consistent cutting operations.

The ZDG Series hydraulic guillotine shear features a welded steel frame, a guided blade movement system, and a hydraulic clamping arrangement. These components work together to support stable machine operation and accurate sheet metal processing. Its practical configuration makes it suitable for fabrication workshops, machinery manufacturers, metalworking facilities, and industrial production lines.

With a ball-supported worktable, protective guarding, and multi-edge cutting blades, the QC11Y-8X3200 is designed to accommodate routine sheet metal cutting tasks while supporting convenient material handling and blade service life.

Key Features of the QC11Y-8X3200

1. Welded Steel Frame Construction

The machine uses a welded steel structure designed to provide a rigid foundation for shearing operations. Stress-relief treatment can help reduce residual stresses associated with welding and support structural stability during service.

The frame design is intended to maintain alignment under normal operating loads and provide a stable platform for sheet metal cutting.

2. Three-Point Guided Blade Movement

The ZDG Series incorporates three guide trolleys to guide blade movement during the shearing process. This guided arrangement supports controlled blade travel and helps maintain cutting consistency.

Combined with proper machine adjustment and blade maintenance, the guiding system contributes to reliable processing performance across routine production tasks.

3. Estun E21S Backgauge Control

The QC11Y-8X3200 is equipped with an Estun E21S controller for backgauge movement and positioning. The system helps operators set the required sheet positioning distance, reducing repetitive manual adjustments during production.

Accurate backgauge positioning supports repeatable cutting dimensions and can improve workflow efficiency when processing multiple workpieces to the same specification.

4. Hydraulic Sheet Clamping

High-quality hold-down clamps secure the sheet metal before cutting. Proper clamping helps limit unwanted sheet movement during blade engagement, supporting dimensional consistency and stable processing.

Clamping performance depends on the material, sheet thickness, machine setup, and operating conditions.

5. Ball-Supported Worktable

The worktable incorporates ball supports to facilitate sheet movement across the loading area. By reducing sliding resistance between the sheet and worktable, this arrangement can make positioning large metal sheets easier and reduce the physical effort required from operators.

This feature is particularly useful when handling sheet materials that need to be repositioned for successive cuts.

6. Multi-Edge Cutting Blades

Both the upper and lower blades are designed with four usable cutting edges. When an edge becomes worn, the blade can be rotated to an unused edge in accordance with the manufacturer's maintenance instructions.

This design helps extend the usable service life of the blades and can reduce the frequency of blade replacement when properly maintained.

7. Protective Guarding

A protective fence is installed around the shearing area to help restrict access to hazardous operating zones while allowing operators to observe the material positioning area.

The guard arrangement forms part of the machine's safety provisions. Operators must follow the applicable operating procedures and verify that all required safety devices are correctly installed and functional.
