What Is Guillotine Cutting?
Guillotine cutting (also known as shearing) is a mechanical process used to slice flat sheet metal in straight lines, without burning, melting, or producing heat-affected zones. Ideal for:
- Flat sections
- Straight-edged blanks
- Pre-cut material for bending and fabrication
- Production runs where repeatability and speed matter
Our machines are CNC-controlled to ensure every cut is exact, consistent, and finished to tolerance.
Our Guillotine Capabilities
- Cuts sheet thicknesses from 0.9mm up to 25mm
- Handles lengths up to 6m
- Shears stainless steel, mild steel, aluminium and more
- Levelled and deburred for safety and finish
- Repeatable results across high-volume orders
- Tolerances adhered to for downstream processing
Whether you’re prepping blanks for CNC bending, structural forms, or simple panels, our guillotine lines deliver sharp, straight cuts every time.
