Individual operating concept
The 15" touch monitor offers maximum and individual operating convenience
- Large screen and purely icon based operating functions
- Simple, fast and intuitive inputs
- Movable control panel along the front of the machine
- 3 operating modes for occasional users, more experienced users, experts
- Simple mode: sheet thickness, material type, stop dimension and quantity
- Advanced simple mode: additional sorting functions and cutting length
- Program mode: Cutting programs with several program lines
- Save and load programs
Best operator ergonomics
The shear table is the operator's direct working area. Its design ensures for easy, quick and efficient material handling.
- Working height 850 mm
- Wide, beveled and rigid tables for quick material handling
- Ball rollers for gentle metal plate movement
- Recessed grip between shear tables
- Table extensions and table supports for easy access
- Moveable table extensions can be added within seconds
- Table extensions can be easily docked with a lever
- Front stop with fine adjustment
- Adjustable and self-cleaning squaring stop
- Finger safety protection with good visibility
- Deep finger pockets for an optimum material use
- LED workspace illumination
- Hold-down pressure automatically adjusts for slip free cutting
- Easy maintenance and good accessibility when changing the oil
- Large frame cutout for easy blade change
- Highest safety levels by two-channel queries
Precise cutting dimensions
The combination of CNC backstop and sheet support system ensure precise cutting dimensions. The sheet support system guides the sheet to the backstop.
- Sheet in a horizontal position: exact cutting dimensions
- Backstop depths selectable: 1000 mm, 1250 mm and 1500 mm
- Snap-on extensions of the sheet support arms
Sorting while cutting
After the cut is made, the sheet support system shows its superiority with multiple material sorting functions:
- Sorting the blanks while cutting increases productivity
- Blanks rolling off in 3 angular positions
- Low angle for sensitive parts: smooth and gentle delivery
- Steep angle for normal blanks: fast delivery, rapid sequences
- Return-to-Sender brings cut parts back to the operator
- Safe small parts sorting to the front (max 200 x 500 mm)
- Trim cuts fall into large volume scrap box
- Separation of good parts and scrap during cutting
- Removal of full scrap box to the rear, the right or the left
- No material sorting required below the shear

Success stories with POWERcut2
Gramm GmbH & Co. KGThe shear is dead, long live the shear
Several industrial companies think that metal shears have no future. However, there is no economical way around shears when it comes to cutting strips and rectangular blanks. Neither punches nor lasers can compete with the efficiency of the shears for such jobs. This is also the case at Gramm GmbH & Co. KG, a specialist for modern, innovative metal roof and façade solutions, who invested in a RAS Powercut2 swing-beam shear.
