Guillotine Shear Blade Installation

Setting up a guillotine blade starts with careful installation. You need to follow each step to keep your machine safe and working well. This part shows how to take off old blades, check mounts, and put on your new guillotine shear blade. You will also learn how to avoid mistakes and use the right torque order.
Removing Old Blades
You must take off the old guillotine shear blade before putting on a new one. This keeps your machine in good shape and helps you stay safe. Follow these steps to remove the blade safely and quickly:
- Remove the front worktable plate, front support arm, and cover.
- Loosen one bolt in the middle of the blade. Do not take it out yet. This bolt stops the blade from falling.
- Take out all other bolts. Use two people to lift the lower blade slowly.
- Change the control panel to ‘Manual Shaft Mode’ on your machine.
- Loosen the middle bolt on the upper blade and take it out.
- Clean oil and dust off the blades. Look for damage or wear.
- If you want to change the steel cutting blade, do these steps backwards to put in the new blade.
Tip: Always use two people to lift a guillotine shear blade. The blade is heavy and very sharp.
Inspecting Mounts
Before you put in a new guillotine shear blade, you need to check the mounts. Clean mounts help you make good cuts and keep your machine running well. Look for these things:
- Check for dirt, oil, or trash on the mounts. Clean them with a lint-free cloth.
- Look for cracks, dents, or worn spots. Bad mounts can make the blade crooked.
- Make sure all mounting holes fit your blade and machine.
If you find problems, fix them before you go on. Clean and strong mounts help you set parallelism and clearance right. This step also stops damage to your new blade.
Positioning and Securing
You must put the guillotine shear blade in the right spot and secure it well. This step affects how good your cuts are. Follow these steps for the best results:
- Put the blade on the holder. Move it to its final spot.
- Mark the holes you need to drill, using your machine’s guide.
- Drill the marked holes slowly and carefully.
- Secure the blade with bolts and washers. Use the right size for each part.
If you need a special blade for different materials or needs, you can look at custom blade options to fit your job.
Torque Sequence
You must tighten the bolts in the correct order. This keeps pressure even and stops the blade from bending. Follow the torque order in your machine’s guide. Most times, you start with the center bolts and move out in a crisscross way. Use a calibrated torque wrench to match the torque needed.
Note: Even pressure helps your machine stay straight and safe.
Mounting Errors
Mounting mistakes can cause problems with your guillotine blade setup. Watch out for these common errors:
- Using the wrong bolt size or torque.
- Skipping cleaning the mounts.
- Tightening bolts unevenly or in the wrong order.
- Not checking alignment after securing the blade.
If you see any of these mistakes, stop and fix them before you go on. Careful setup helps you avoid repairs and keeps your machine working well.
You can always check your machine’s guide for the right steps. If you need a blade with special features, think about custom options to fit your machine and cutting needs.
Blade Parallelism Calibration

You need to check the parallelism of your guillotine blades. This helps you make very accurate cuts. Both the upper and lower blades must move together in a straight line. When the blades are parallel, your cuts look better. Your machine will also last longer. This also helps keep grinding blades working well. You get the same results every time when you do this.
Measuring Parallelism
First, measure the parallelism between the upper and lower blades. Use a dial indicator for this job. Put the dial indicator on the lower blade. Move the upper blade along its path. Watch the dial as the upper blade moves. If the dial changes, the blades are not parallel. This means the distance between the blades is different. You need this information to help you fix the problem.
Tip: Write down the dial readings at different spots on the blade. This helps you find uneven spots and plan your fixes better.
Adjusting Blade Position
You have to make careful changes to fix parallelism problems. Follow these steps to get the blades lined up right:
- Take off the lower blade and clean each part. Dirt can mess up your work.
- Check if the blade is straight both sideways and up and down. Use a straightedge for this.
- Change the shear blade gap by moving the lower blade. This changes the space between the blades.
- Turn the left and right screws on the lower blade to make the gap bigger if you need to.
- Turn the set screws on the left and right to make the gap smaller.
- Loosen the bolts on the lower blade table. This lets you move the blade for small changes.
- Lower the upper blade to the right spot for adjusting. Make sure it is close but does not touch.
- Use a feeler gauge to set the gap to about 0.5 mm. This is a good place to start for many materials.
- Keep adjusting until the feeler gauge fits three wires but not five. This gives you a very exact gap.
You might need to do some steps again to get the best result. Each step helps you control how well the machine cuts. If you see uneven cuts or need more force, try changing the shearing angle.
Note: Make small changes and check after each one. If you rush, you can make mistakes and lose accuracy.
Verifying Alignment
When you finish adjusting, you need to check the alignment. Use the right tools and ways to check your work. The table below shows some good choices:
| Tool/Technique | Purpose/Effectiveness |
|---|---|
| Calibration Probes | Achieve sub-millimeter accuracy |
| Laser Displacement Sensors | Provide high precision in alignment |
| Micrometers | Ensure precise measurements for alignment verification |
| Laser Scanners | High precision through point cloud registration |
| Straightedge | Check blade alignment visually |
Pick the tool that works best for your job and what you have. Calibration probes and laser sensors are the most exact. Micrometers and straightedges are good for quick checks. Always compare your results to what your material and machine need.
Reminder: Write down your alignment checks. This helps you see changes over time and makes future calibration easier.
You finish setting up the guillotine blade by measuring, adjusting, and checking alignment. This makes your cuts more accurate and keeps your machine working well. If you check and adjust often, your cuts will stay clean and your machine will last longer.
Blade Clearance Configuration

Understanding Clearance
You need to understand what blade clearance means before you start making adjustments. Blade clearance, also called blade gap, is the space between the upper and lower blades in your guillotine shearing machine. This space is not random. You set it on purpose to match the material you want to cut. The right clearance helps you get clean and straight cuts. If you use the wrong clearance, you can get rough edges or even damage your blade.
Different materials need different parameters for clearance. Softer materials, like paper, need a small gap. This stops the edges from tearing or looking ragged. Harder materials, like steel, need a bigger gap. This helps the blade break the material cleanly. You must check the clearance every time you change the material. This step keeps your cuts sharp and your machine safe.
Tip: Always check the manufacturer’s guide for recommended clearance values. This helps you keep your machine working with high precision.
Setting Clearance for Materials
You must set the clearance based on what you want to cut. Each material has its own needs. If you use the wrong parameters, you can ruin your work or wear out your blade too fast. Here is how you can set the clearance for common materials.
紙/段ボール
Paper and cardboard are soft and thin. You need a small clearance to get a smooth cut. If the gap is too wide, the paper will tear or have fuzzy edges. If the gap is too tight, the blade can wear out quickly.
- Use a feeler gauge to measure the gap.
- Start with a clearance of about 0.1 mm for thin paper.
- For thicker cardboard, you can increase the gap a little, but keep it small.
- Make a test cut and check the edge. Adjust if you see ragged or uneven cuts.
Note: Small changes in clearance can make a big difference in cut quality. Always test before starting a big job.
Plastics/Metals
Plastics and metals need special care. Plastics can melt if the blade gets too hot or if the clearance is wrong. Metals, like steel or aluminum, need a bigger gap to break cleanly.
Here is a table to help you set the right clearance for different materials:
| 材質タイプ | Optimal Blade Clearance |
|---|---|
| 軟鋼 | 7.5% of material thickness |
| アルミニウム | Use a high tooth count blade |
| プラスチック | Use a blade with 60-80 teeth |
- For mild steel, set the clearance to about 7.5% of the sheet thickness.
- For aluminum, use a high tooth count blade and check the gap often.
- For plastics, use a blade with 60 or 80 teeth. This helps you avoid melting the edges.
You must always check the cut after your first try. If you see burrs or melted spots, adjust the clearance and try again. This process helps you reach the best precision for each job.
Tip: Write down the clearance you use for each material. This record helps you save time on future jobs.
Using Jacking Bolts
Jacking bolts help you make fine adjustments to the clearance. You find these bolts on the blade holder. When you turn a jacking bolt, you move the blade a tiny amount. This lets you set the clearance with high precision.
Follow these steps to use jacking bolts:
- Loosen the screws that hold the lower blade.
- Turn the jacking bolts slowly to move the blade closer or farther from the upper blade.
- Use a feeler gauge to check the gap at several points along the blade.
- Tighten the screws when you finish the adjustment of the clearance between blades.
- Make a test cut to confirm the clearance is correct.
You must check the clearance at both ends and in the middle. This step helps you keep the same gap along the whole blade. If you see a difference, adjust the jacking bolts again. This method gives you the best results and keeps your machine working with top precision.
Reminder: Always double-check your clearance before you start production. This habit helps you avoid mistakes and keeps your cuts clean.
Confirming Clearance
You have to check the blade clearance after making changes. This step is very important for guillotine blade setup. It helps you get clean cuts and keeps your machine safe. Calibrating parallelism and clearance makes sure the blades have the right gap for each material.
First, look at the clearance along the whole blade. Use a feeler gauge at the left end, center, and right end. The gap should be the same as your target for the material. If you find different gaps, turn the jacking bolts again. When the gap is the same everywhere, your setup is correct.
Here is a checklist you can use to confirm blade clearance:
- Clean both blades and the area where they are mounted.
- Put the feeler gauge in three or more places along the blade.
- Check if the gap matches the value for your material.
- Make a test cut with a sample piece.
- Look at the cut edge for burrs, rough spots, or tears.
- Change the clearance if you see any problems.
- Write down the final clearance value for next time.
Tip: Always use the same measuring tool every time you check. This habit helps you avoid mistakes and keeps your results the same.
You can use this table to spot signs of good or bad clearance:
| Observation | それが意味するもの | Action Needed |
|---|---|---|
| Smooth, straight edge | Clearance is correct | Start production |
| Fuzzy or torn edge | Clearance is too wide | Reduce the gap |
| Burrs or chipping | Clearance is too narrow | Increase the gap |
| Uneven cut | Clearance or parallelism off | Recheck both settings |
You should always check clearance before a new job or when you change materials. This step in guillotine blade setup saves material and keeps your machine working well. Calibrating parallelism and clearance is not just done once. You need to check and confirm these settings often for the best results.
Testing for Precision Cuts

You should test your guillotine blade setup before you start. This step helps you make sure parallelism and clearance are correct. You can find problems early and fix them for better cuts.
Test Cuts
First, get a sample piece of the material you want to cut. Put it on the machine and check that safety guards are in place. Run the guillotine shear for one cut. Watch the blade as it cuts the material. Listen for odd sounds or if the blade gets stuck. Take out the cut piece and look at the edge.
Try this with different materials if you plan to switch. Paper, cardboard, plastics, and metals all react in their own way. Testing helps you see if your setup works for each type.
Tip: Always use a sample piece that is the same thickness and type as your production material. This habit helps you get the right results.
Evaluating Results
After you finish your test cuts, check the results closely. Use your eyes and hands to look at the cut edges. You can use measuring tools for more details. The table below shows what to look for when you check your test cuts:
| 基準 | 説明 |
|---|---|
| Mechanical Performance | Look for bending or changes in direction during cutting. |
| Stress Analysis | Check for marks or uneven pressure along the cut. |
| Quality of Cut Surfaces | Look at how smooth the cut is, and check for burrs or bent edges. |
Proper Cut Signs
There are signs that show your guillotine blade setup is good. These signs mean your cuts are precise:
- The cut edge is smooth and straight.
- There are no burrs or rough spots.
- The material does not bend or twist near the cut.
- The blade moves easily through the material.
If you see these signs, you can start production. Your machine is ready for accurate work.
Defect Indicators
Sometimes, you may see problems after a test cut. These defects mean you need to adjust your setup:
- Fuzzy or torn edges mean the clearance is too wide.
- Burrs or chipping show the clearance is too narrow.
- Uneven cuts mean the blades are not parallel.
- Bending or stress marks show problems with blade alignment or machine pressure.
Write down these defects and compare them to your checklist. This helps you know what to change.
Note: Always check both sides of the cut. Some problems only show up on one side.
Fine-Tuning
If you find small problems during your test cuts, you can make little changes to fix them. Follow these steps to fine-tune your guillotine blade setup:
- Check if the blades are lined up. Make sure they are parallel and spaced evenly. Adjust them if needed.
- Look at the blade sharpness. If you see dull spots, sharpen or replace the blade.
- Check the material thickness and type. Make sure it matches your machine’s limits.
- Look at the hydraulic system. Make sure fluid levels are right and check for leaks.
- Clean and oil the machine. Keeping it clean helps you get better cuts.
Test again after each change. This helps you get the best cutting precision for your job. Write down each change and result. These notes help you do better next time.
Reminder: Small changes can make a big difference. Go slow and check your results after every change.
You can get precise and reliable cuts by testing, checking, and fine-tuning your guillotine blade setup. This routine helps you avoid problems and keeps your machine working well.

| Safety Features Not Working | – Sensor Malfunction: Clean or replace sensors. – Safety Switch Problems: Test and replace bad switches. |
Fuzzy Edges
You might see fuzzy or torn edges after a cut. This usually means the blade clearance is too wide. You need to control the gap between the blades. Check your clearance with a feeler gauge. Make small changes until the edge looks clean. If the problem stays, check the blade sharpness. Dull blades can also cause fuzzy edges. Replace or sharpen the blade if needed.
Chipping/Burrs
Chipping or burrs on the cut edge show that the clearance is too tight. You need to control the space between the blades. Open the gap a little and test again. Burrs can also mean the blade is chipped or damaged. Inspect the blade for chips and replace it if you find any. Always use high-quality blades for better control and accuracy.
不均等なカット
Uneven cuts can happen for many reasons. The table might not be level, or the material might not sit straight. You need to control the placement of your material. Make sure the table is flat and the material lines up with the blade. Worn gears or belts can also cause uneven cuts. Check these parts and replace them if you see damage. If the problem stays, check the parallelism of your blades.
Correcting Parallelism
Parallelism means both blades move in a straight line together. If you see uneven cuts, you need to control the blade positions. Follow these steps to fix parallelism problems:
- Adjust the blade gap to match the thickness of your material. This reduces pressure and stops deformation.
- Set the shear pressure for your material and thickness. This gives you even shear force.
- Replace or grind blades often to keep them sharp and in good shape.
- Fix the sheet in place before cutting. This keeps the cut straight.
- Adjust the blade installation so the shear force spreads out evenly.
- Check blade wear often. Adjust the installation angle to keep the blades parallel.
Tip: Write down each change you make. This helps you control your setup and makes future troubleshooting easier.
Resolving Clearance Problems
Clearance problems can cause many defects. You need to control the gap between the blades for each material. Use these steps to fix clearance issues:
- Check blade sharpness often. Sharp blades give you neat cuts and better control.
- Inspect blades for chips. Keep them in good shape to stop defects in your work.
- 使用 high-quality materials. Cheap materials can cause more problems and are harder to control.
- Lubricate blades when cutting aluminum. This helps you get smooth cuts and reduces defects.
- Make sure the backgauge is parallel. Set the squaring arm square for better accuracy and control.
Note: Always check the clearance before you start a new job. This habit gives you more control and helps you avoid mistakes.
You can solve most problems by taking control of your guillotine blade setup. Troubleshooting helps you keep your cuts clean and your machine safe. When you know what to look for, you can fix issues fast and keep your accuracy high.
Torque Issues
Torque is very important when you set up a guillotine blade. You must tighten bolts with the right force. If you use too much, you might break the blade or the mount. If you use too little, the blade can move while cutting. Both of these problems can mess up parallelism and clearance.
You can find torque problems by watching for these signs:
| 症状 | それが意味するもの | あなたがすべきこと |
|---|---|---|
| Blade movement | Bolts are too loose | Retighten bolts with correct torque |
| Cracked blade or mount | Bolts are too tight | Replace damaged parts and use proper torque |
| 不均一なカット | Pressure is not even across blade | Check torque sequence and retighten bolts |
You should always use a torque wrench for this job. This tool helps you use the right amount of force. Look in the manual to find the correct torque value. If you skip this, the blade might not line up right and your cuts will be bad.
Here are steps to help you avoid torque mistakes:
- Clean all bolt threads before you start. Dirt can change how tight the bolts get.
- Use a torque wrench that is set right. Set it to the number in your manual.
- Tighten bolts in the order the manual says. Start in the middle and go out in a crisscross way.
- Check every bolt after you finish. Make sure none are too loose or too tight.
- Write down the torque numbers and order in your log book.
Tip: If you hear a click or see the blade move after cutting, stop and check all bolts. Fixing things fast can stop bigger problems.
Check the torque often, especially after you use the machine a lot or change the blade. The right torque keeps the blade safe and helps with parallelism and clearance. You get better cuts and protect your machine from harm.
If you find a torque problem, fix it right away. Use the right tools and follow these steps. Controlling torque keeps your guillotine blade setup safe and working well.
Maintenance for Blade Calibration

Inspection Schedule
You need to check your guillotine blade often to keep it working well. Look at the blades every day for dirt, chips, or rust. Clean the blade area and put oil on moving parts. These steps help your machine run better.
Each week, sharpen the blades if they are dull. Change the blade gap and look at the electrical parts for damage. Doing this stops bigger problems before they start. Once a month, clean the machine very well and check all the parts. Calibrating parallelism and clearance during these checks keeps your cuts good.
Once a year, do a big checkup on your machine. If your guillotine has digital controls, update the software. This helps stop sudden breakdowns and keeps your machine safe.
Regular service stops accidents and makes your guillotine last longer. You get better work and fewer problems when you follow a schedule.

| 月次 | Deep cleaning, mechanical inspection, calibration |
| Annual | Overhaul, software updates, full system check |
洗浄と潤滑
You must keep your guillotine blades clean and oiled for the best results. Dirt and old oil can make the blade wear out faster. Wipe the blade with a lint-free cloth every day. Use 3-in-1 oil on both sides of the blade. This oil helps the blade move well and stops rust. Do not use WD-40 because it does not protect the blade and can cause more wear.
Spray oil on both sides of the blade after you use it. For hard jobs, use a stronger coolant, especially for thick or tough materials. Always keep blades in a dry place to stop rust and damage.
Cleaning and oiling your blade often helps it last longer. You will see smoother cuts and less machine trouble if you do this.
Blade Wear Monitoring
You need to check for blade wear so your guillotine does not break by surprise. Look at the blade edge for chips bigger than 0.5mm. Use a 10x magnifier to see small chips or cracks. Check for rust, dents, or rough spots on the blade. These signs mean the blade needs fixing.
Check if your blades line up using a laser tool. The blades should be within 0.02mm of each other. If the gap is bigger, recalibrate parallelism and clearance right away. Watch for rust or chipping. Replace or sharpen the blade if you see damage.
Tip: Write down what you find after each check. Keeping notes helps you see problems early and plan fixes before things get worse.
If you follow these steps, your guillotine blade setup will stay safe and accurate. Regular checks, cleaning, and watching for wear help your machine work its best.
Calibration Records
You should keep clear calibration records for every guillotine blade setup. These records help you see changes and find problems. They also help you make your work better. When you calibrate parallelism and clearance, write down each adjustment you make. Good records make your job easier and help you get better results.
You can use a logbook or a digital spreadsheet. Write the date, material type, blade clearance, and parallelism measurements. Also write the torque values and any problems you notice. If you change the blade or adjust the setup, record why you did it and what happened.
Here is a sample table for your calibration records:
| 日付 | 材質タイプ | ブレードクリアランス | Parallelism Reading | Torque Value | Notes/Issues Found |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2024-06-01 | 厚紙 | 0.15 mm | 0.02 mm | 45 Nm | Smooth cut, no defects |
| 2024-06-02 | 軟鋼 | 0.75 mm | 0.03 mm | 50 Nm | Minor burrs, adjusted |
| 2024-06-03 | プラスチック | 0.20 mm | 0.01ミリメートル | 40 Nm | Clean edge |
Tip: Always update your calibration records after you set up the guillotine blade. This habit helps you see patterns and fix problems faster.
Look at your records before you start a new job. Check for settings that worked well with the same materials. If you see the same problem more than once, use your notes to find out why. Calibration records help you keep your guillotine blade setup steady and reliable.
You can use your records to teach new workers. Show them how to calibrate parallelism and clearance by looking at old setups. This saves time and helps stop mistakes.
If you use digital records, back up your files often. You do not want to lose important data. If you use paper records, keep your logbook in a safe place.
Calibration records are important for guillotine blade setup. They help you keep high precision, improve safety, and make your machine last longer. When you calibrate parallelism and clearance, good records make every step easier.

When you set up your cnc guillotine shearing machine, pick the right blade for your job. The machine lets you change the blade’s spot, angle, and gap very exactly. You can use the cnc controls to make small changes. This helps you get smooth, straight cuts.
The cnc system can also remember your favorite blade settings. This saves you time when you switch jobs. You do not have to set everything again. The machine remembers what you did last time and uses those settings.
Note: Always look at the blade before you start a new job. A sharp blade that fits well gives you the best cut.
カスタマイズオプション
You can pick from many custom choices with a cnc guillotine shearing machine. These choices help you make the machine fit your needs. You can pick different blade sizes, edge angles, and ways to mount the blade. The table below shows some common custom features:
| カスタマイズ機能 | 説明 |
|---|---|
| Tailored Dimensions | Custom sizes to fit specific machinery and operational needs. |
| Edge Angles | Options ranging from 15° to 45° to enhance cutting performance. |
| Mounting Configurations | Custom mounting options to ensure compatibility with different machines. |
| Tailored Solutions | Custom manufacturing to meet specific requirements for optimal performance. |
If you need to cut special materials, you can ask for a special blade. The cnc guillotine shearing machine lets you change settings for your job. You can set how the machine cuts, program the order, and pick the right machine for your work.
When you pay attention to these settings, your machine works better. You can get more done, waste less, and make better cuts. Picking the right machine and using the best settings helps you do well in your work.
Reminder: Write down any changes you make to your machine’s setup. This helps you do the same thing next time and not make old mistakes.
You can see how cnc guillotine shearing machine setup, automatic calibration, and custom blades all work together. These things help you cut with high accuracy and work faster.
Impact of Precision Setup

Precision setup makes your guillotine blade work better every day. When you calibrate parallelism and clearance, your cuts look cleaner and are safer. Your equipment lasts longer and works more efficiently.
刃の寿命
You want blades to last a long time. Precision setup helps you do this. When you align and calibrate blades, you stop wear and early damage. You avoid chips and cracks from bad alignment. The blade edge stays sharp for more cuts.
Here are results from real factories:
| 証拠の種類 | 詳細 |
|---|---|
| ブレードの寿命 | Blade life went from 10 to 42 days, a 4x increase |
| ダウンタイムの削減 | Downtime dropped by 65%, blade changes by 50% |
| メンテナンス費用の節約 | Yearly blade costs went down by $18,000 |
Precision setup means fewer blade changes and less downtime. You spend less time fixing problems and more time cutting. High-concentricity blades break 67% less, so you work safer and more efficiently.
コスト効率
Save money with a precision guillotine blade setup. You waste fewer materials and produce less waste. You also need to buy fewer new blades and have fewer repairs. Companies that calibrate parallelism and clearance save a lot.

よくある質問
What is the most important step in guillotine blade setup?
You need to check parallelism and clearance first. These steps help you make clean cuts. They also keep your machine safe. Always measure and adjust both before you cut anything.
How often should I calibrate parallelism and clearance?
You should calibrate these settings when you change materials. Also do it if your cuts look bad. Regular checks help you keep cuts neat and protect your machine.
Can I use the same clearance for all materials?
No, you cannot use one clearance for everything. Each material needs its own gap. Softer materials need a smaller gap. Harder ones need a bigger gap. Always change the clearance for what you are cutting.
What tools do I need for accurate guillotine blade setup?
You need a torque wrench and feeler gauges. You also need measuring tools like a straightedge or dial indicator. Clean tools help you set parallelism and clearance the right way.
Why do my cuts have burrs or rough edges?
Burrs or rough edges mean the clearance is too tight. It can also mean the blade is dull. Check and change the clearance. Sharpen or replace the blade if you need to.
How do I know if my blades are parallel?
Use a dial indicator or a straightedge to check. Measure the gap at different spots on the blade. The gap should be the same everywhere. If it is not, adjust the blades until they match.
What should I record after calibrating parallelism and clearance?
Write down the date and the type of material. Record the clearance value and parallelism reading. Note any problems you found. Good records help you repeat good setups and fix issues faster.
