The WyShear G Series is a guillotine-type sheet metal shearing machine with hydraulic drive and CNC control, available in 4 configurations — from the 1/2512 (1 mm thickness, 2500 mm length) to the 16/3212 (16 mm thickness, 3200 mm length) — designed for metalworking workshops, steel-structure plants and industrial manufacturers that shear high volumes of sheet metal with high accuracy and productivity requirements. With a Parker Hannifin USA hydraulic system, a Yaskawa Japan servo back gauge with ±0,1 mm accuracy and Siemens / Delem CNC control, this sheet metal shearing machine combines the reliability of hydraulics with the precision of digital control.
Compared with mechanical shearing machines, the WyShear G Series sheet metal shearing machine with hydraulic drive offers constant force along the entire length of the cut without variations due to mechanical wear, with speeds of 12–20 strokes/minute and automatic adjustment of the blade angle and the distance between the blades directly from the CNC panel — with no manual intervention when changing the thickness of the sheet processed.
Key advantages of the WyShear G Series sheet metal shearing machine
• Parker Hannifin hydraulic system — constant force along the entire length of the cut — the Parker Hannifin USA hydraulic pump and cylinders ensure constant cutting pressure from one end of the sheet to the other, eliminating the cut-quality variations specific to worn or unevenly adjusted mechanical systems over lengths of 2500–3200 mm.
• Yaskawa servo back gauge — ±0,1 mm accuracy — the servo back gauge with Yaskawa Japan and Bosch Rexroth control positions the material with ±0,1 mm accuracy, ensuring that all the pieces cut in a series have the exact programmed length without the accumulation of errors between consecutive strokes.
• Automatic blade-gap adjustment — calibration per sheet thickness — the intelligent blade-gap adjustment system with Bosch Rexroth actuators automatically calibrates the optimal gap for the selected thickness, ensuring constant cut-edge quality and maximum blade life.
• Siemens / Delem CNC control — programming and unlimited job storage — the operator-friendly CNC panel allows the fast setting of parameters, the automatic monitoring of the blade angle and the storage of production programs for the fast recall of repetitive orders, with no manual re-entry of data.
• Adjustable blade angle 0,5–1,5° — optimal quality on any thickness — the adjustable angle allows the cut to be optimized per material: a small angle (0,5°) for precision cuts on thin sheets with minimal deformation, a larger angle (1,5°) for the efficient cutting of thick sheets with reduced force.
• SICK Germany safety light curtain — CE-certified operator protection — the advanced SICK light curtain with fast detection immediately stops the sheet metal shearing machine at any obstacle in the danger zone, in full compliance with European industrial safety standards.
• Siemens + Schneider electrical system — industrial reliability — the electrical cabinet with Siemens and Schneider components ensures reliable operation in continuous production, with automatic protection and simplified maintenance compared with systems with lower-quality components.

Materials compatible with the WyShear G Series sheet metal shearing machine
Carbon steel — the WyShear G Series sheet metal shearing machine cuts carbon steel with thicknesses from 1 mm up to 16 mm depending on the model, with straight cuts and clean edges suitable for further processing or direct delivery. The constant hydraulic force over the length of 2500–3200 mm ensures uniform quality across the entire width of the sheet.
Stainless steel — stainless steel and higher-strength alloys can be cut in smaller thicknesses than mild carbon steel — the automatic blade-gap adjustment ensures edge quality without cracks or deformation. UZINEX recommends consultancy for selecting the correct model based on the exact stainless-steel thickness processed.
Aluminum and non-ferrous sheets — aluminum and non-ferrous metals are processed with the blade angle reduced to 0,5° to minimize deformation on thin, soft sheets — a parameter adjustable directly from the CNC panel without mechanical intervention, adapting the sheet metal shearing machine to the characteristics of each material.
Applications and industries for the WyShear G Series sheet metal shearing machine
The WyShear G Series sheet metal shearing machine is intended for metalworking workshops, steel-structure plants, manufacturers of electrical cabinets and HVAC equipment that cut large daily volumes of sheet metal in standardized formats. The CNC-hydraulic-servo back gauge combination ensures high productivity with constant accuracy over long production runs.
Sheet-metal cutting service centers that serve multiple customers benefit from the CNC program-storage function — each order is recalled in a few seconds without manual re-entry and without the risk of errors at order change. The speed of 17–20 strokes/minute on the models for thin sheets ensures high productivity on standardized rectangular formats.
Manufacturers of metal furniture, shelving and storage systems use the WyShear G Series sheet metal shearing machine for cutting 1–4 mm sheets into exact strips and formats, with the servo back gauge guaranteeing ±0,1 mm repeatability across the entire production run without manual adjustments between batches.
How the WyShear G Series sheet metal shearing machine works
1. CNC program setup — the operator enters or recalls the program on the Siemens/Delem CNC panel: the piece length, the number of pieces, the blade angle and the blade gap are set digitally without manual mechanical adjustments.
2. Automatic blade-gap adjustment — the Bosch Rexroth actuators automatically calculate and apply the optimal gap between the blades for the selected sheet thickness, ensuring cut-edge quality from the first stroke without a trial adjustment.
3. Servo back-gauge positioning — the Yaskawa servo back gauge positions itself at the programmed length with ±0,1 mm accuracy; the sheet is fed until it contacts the back gauge for cutting to the exact dimension.
4. Hydraulic cutting — the Parker Hannifin hydraulic system drives the blade at the programmed angle (0,5–1,5°) with constant force along the entire cutting length at 12–20 strokes/minute depending on the model and the material thickness.
5. Back-gauge advance and cycle repetition — at the completion of the cut, the servo back gauge automatically advances to the position for the next piece; the cycle repeats automatically for the programmed number of pieces with no manual intervention between strokes.
6. Continuous safety monitoring — the SICK light curtain continuously monitors the danger zone; any detected obstacle immediately stops the sheet metal shearing machine, with resumption after operator confirmation.
Frequently asked questions about the WyShear G Series sheet metal shearing machine
Which WyShear G model is suitable for cutting 4 mm stainless steel?
For 4 mm stainless steel, the WyShear G 6/2512 or 10/3212 model is recommended, because stainless steel is harder than mild carbon steel and requires a safety margin in the nominal capacity. UZINEX provides free consultancy for selecting the correct model based on the exact thickness, the type of material and the maximum cutting length required — an error in model selection generates overloading of the sheet metal shearing machine or cuts of lower quality.
Can the WyShear G Series sheet metal shearing machine be integrated with automatic feeding systems?
Yes — the Siemens CNC system of the WyShear G Series sheet metal shearing machine supports integration with automatic feeding systems, sheet-handling robots and production-management systems through standard industrial communication interfaces.
