TENNSMITH's power shears combine all of the features of our foot shears with the advantage and convenience of air or hydraulic operation.
TENNSMITH power shears are a productive addition to any shop.
The air shears utilize heavyduty,tie rod-type pneumatic cylinders, which provide up to 40 strokes per minute in capacity materials.
A foot-operated air valve control, pressure regulator, air gauge, oiler/condenser cups and neoprene, padded holddown feet are standard features.
We recommend a maximum air supply of 75 psi for operating these shears at rated capacity.
Where air supply pressures exceed 75 psi, an in-line regulator is helpful to provide pressure control.
The machines cycles at 45 strokes a minute, thanks to its first class hydraulic system.
The hydraulic unit is of a low maintenance design featuring a solenoid actuated valve, 3-hp electric motor, self contained pump in tank with pressure gauge, check valve and industrial quality cylinders.
The motor is protected by a magnetic starter.
Other electrical safety features include a low voltage on/off switch; low voltage, shrouded, electric foot switch; step-down transformer with low voltage circuit fuse; fully enclosed electrical box; and insulated reinforced conduit for all wiring.
All shears are standard equipped with highcarbon high-chromium (HCHC) blades.
