How Does a Flying Shear Machine Work?

Flying shear machines revolutionize metal processing through synchronized electromechanical systems. Here’s a technical deep dive into their operation, featuring JINCHUN’s cutting-edge solutions.

1. Workflow: From Raw Wire to Finished Product

Stage 1: Feeding

Process: Servo-driven feed rollers pull wire into the flying shear machine at 1–120m/min (3.3–394 ft/min).

Smart Adjustment: Speed auto-adjusts based on material ductility (e.g., copper vs. high-carbon steel).

Stage 2: Straightening

Tech Specs:

Straightening frequency: 10–60Hz (PLC-monitored)

Pressure: Up to 12kN for Ø16mm rebars

Compensation: Auto-wear adjustment maintains ±0.2mm straightness.

Stage 3: Cutting

Precision Mechanics:

✅ Servo blades sync at 30rad/s (≈1719°/s)

✅ Burr-free cuts with <0.1mm length variance

Stage 4: Counting & Discharge

Automation:

Batch counting (e.g., auto-stop after 1,000 units)

Conveyor belts sort cut pieces by size

2. Core Technologies

Technology                                                 Function                                                                 Performance Gain

Servo Synchronization                       Encoder-linked feed/cut axes                                       Eliminates speed mismatch errors

AI-Powered Compensation      Auto-adjusts for length deviations (e.g., +5mm offset)           99.9% cut accuracy

Variable-Speed Straightening            Material-adaptive frequency tuning                              Handles copper/steel/brass equally well

3. System Capabilities

User Interface

10" HMI Touchscreen:

✅ Set parameters (cut length, speed)

✅ View real-time diagnostics (e.g., "Motor Overload: Check Gearbox")

✅ Store 200+ job profiles

Operational Modes

Manual Mode: Test individual modules (feed/straighten/cut)

Auto Mode: 24/7 unmanned production with <0.5% downtime

Safety Systems

Emergency stop button (ISO 13850 certified)

Light curtains for operator protection

Overload alerts for torque/pressure anomalies

Why Choose a Flying Shear Machine?

Efficiency: 120m/min cutting vs. 12m/min manual shears

Consistency: ±0.5mm length tolerance across 10,000+ cycles

ROI: 18-month payback period for automotive wire harness producers
