Hydraulic

guillotine shears

Types
TS/TSX
 All HACO shears are recognized for being well-built, accurate and cost-effective, meeting
the demand for the high-precision sheet metal and heavy fabrication market to run small-
or high-volume production.
All our TS shears are equipped with power rake angle adjustment from the SP 8 control
panel and quick blade gap adjustment.
Both 6 and 12mm models are available with our SC70 CNC controls (TSX types).
These machines are delivered with an extensive range of standard features.
The TS/TSX series shears remain the pacesetters in the price/quality ratio
market of today. With thousands of units running day after day all over
the world, we are convinced of the durability and craftmanship of
these machines

 ÉQUIPEMENT STANDARD
• Hydraulic motor-pump group arranged at the back of the machine, easily accesible and
protected by a sheet.
• 2 under driven cylinders. Electro-hydraulic adjustment of the rake angle by push
buttons in the control panel.
• All operator controls are conveniently located at the left-hand side of the machine within
the immediate reach of the operator.
• The standard SP8 control offers the following functions : automatic posi-
tioning of the backgauge to the preselected position with digital read-
out, stroke control and selection for backgauge retraction.
• Quick blade gap setting - on 6mm-models by means of
one easily accessible lever at the front of the machine.
• Tilting sheet holddowns, pressure of which is
independant from the shearing pressure, in order to
clamp properly each sheet thickness. These
holddowns are arranged more closely on the left
and the right hand side to conveniently cut
small sheets.
• Hydraulic and electric overload protection.
• 4 edged cutting blades.
• On all models, motorised backgauge.
On 6mm stroke 750mm, on 12mm stroke
1000mm.
• Shearing table with a number of square
iron blocks, for easy sheet feed-in and
increasing drastically operator’s safety.
• Squaring arm of 1000mm, with scale,
T-slot and disappearing stop, attached to the
left side of the machine.
• Movable footpedal control.
• Filled oiltank.
• Instruction and maintenance manuals.
• Service tools.

 BLADE GAP
Our quick blade gap adjustment is located
conveniently in front of the machine (on 6mm-
models) or at the rear of the machine (on
12mm models) Adjustment ranges from
0,05mm blade gap for very light sheet
thicknesses and progressively
increases for heavier thicknesses up
to the maximum shear capacity.

ADJUSTABLE RAKE ANGLE

Electro-hydraulic adjustment of the rake angle
by push buttons at the control panel, with digital
read-out, allows thin material to be cut at less
angle, minimizing deformity of the sheared
stock.

HYDRAULICS
TS shears are bottom driven by 2 pull-down cylinders. The hydraulic system
consists of a motorpump group and a multi-function manifold block, conve-
niently located at the rear of the machine.
This compact assembly brings valves and hoses together, thus simplifying the
system and eliminating troublesome leaks.
The connections to the cylinders, the holddowns and pumps are by means of
flexible hoses.
Two high pressure relief valves
protect the holddowns and the
cutting cycle from overload.
Oversized oiltank for trouble-free
production shearing.

BACKGAUGES
The backgauge consists of 2 rigid arms (containing guides and control spindle)
and the parallel adjustable backgauge bar. This assembly assures a precise
positionning of the sheet. Swing-up and swing-away types enable cutting of sheets
longer than the standard stroke length.
Motorised positioning with the SP8 preselection control or programmable positioning with
the SC70 control. Digital read-out of the actual and preselected or programmed
position.

MOTORISED
BACKGAUGE
Lateral movement
front to back.
Standard on all models
TS 3006: backgauge
stroke 750mm.
Expandable in option
to 1000mm.
TS 3012: stroke 1000mm

SWING-UP BACKGAUGE
Power backgauge stroke 820mm.
Available as option on 6mm models
When the backstop runs backwards, it will mechanically lift up to
cut longer sheets.
Also expandable to 1000mm stroke with lifting up
feature.

SWING-AWAY BACKGAUGE
Power backgauge stroke 1000mm.
Available as option on 12mm
models
The SAB backgauge works on a
cam operating system that
allows the backstop to swing
away, in order to cut material
longer than 1000 mm.

By entering the sheet thickness for mild steel,
the control automatically sets the blade gap
and the cutting angle as a function of the sheet
thickness. All parameters can be manually
modified according to the actual data.

All cutting parameters such as material type,
sheet thickness, cutting angle and blade gap SQUARING ARMS AND FRONT SUPPORT ARMS with or
are programmed manually. without scale, T-slots and flip-over stop. Lengths from
1000 up to 3000mm.
