When it comes to scrap metal processing, choosing the right shear can significantly impact productivity and operating costs. Here’s a quick comparison between Multi Blade Shears and traditional Gantry Shears:
✅ Cutting Method
Multi Blade Shear: Uses multiple blades for continuous shearing—one cut creates multiple pieces.
Gantry Shear: Single blade, one cut = one piece.
✅ Efficiency
Multi blade shear achieves up to 3 cuts per minute, with each cut producing several uniform pieces.
Gantry shear also offers up to 3 cuts/min, but with only one piece per cut.
✅ Discharge Quality
Multi blade shears deliver uniform output, usually with no need for secondary processing.
Gantry shears often produce uneven sizes, requiring extra steps.
✅ Size Control
Multi blade: Adjustable blade quantity allows flexible sizing.
Gantry: Fixed blade size, no adjustment possible.
✅ Key Advantages of Multi Blade Shear
Higher Efficiency – One cut, multiple clean pieces
Flexible Sizing – Adjustable to meet different material specs
Lower Costs – Lower power use and investment, reduced processing time
