Model comparison

AS Guillotine vs. BS Swing Beam

Choose the AS Series when control, productivity, and automatic adjustments matter. Choose the BS Series when the shop needs dependable hydraulic shearing with simpler operation and lower complexity.

AS Series CNC Guillotine

Best Fit

Production shops that need more control over cutting angle, blade gap, backgauge positioning, and sheet processing workflow.

Why it matters

Automatic adjustments help reduce setup time and improve consistency when cutting different materials and thicknesses.

BS Series NC Swing Beam

Best Fit

Fabricators that need reliable straight-line sheet cutting for common shop work, blank prep, and general fabrication.

Why it matters

A simpler NC swing beam platform gives shops dependable hydraulic cutting without paying for CNC features they may not need.

Applications

Best-Fit Applications

Dener shears are built for shops that need accurate straight-line cutting, efficient blank preparation, and reliable sheet processing before forming, welding, or assembly.

Sheet Metal Blanking

Cut sheet material into blanks before bending, welding, punching, or downstream fabrication.

Production Sheet Processing

AS Series is a strong fit for shops cutting repeat blanks or varied materials where automatic setup control matters.

General Fabrication

BS Series works well for everyday hydraulic shearing, repair work, job shop cutting, and common blank preparation.

Shops Cutting Multiple Thicknesses

AS Series automatic blade gap and cutting angle adjustment help operators move between materials more efficiently.

Budget-Conscious Shearing

BS Series gives shops a practical NC shear platform without overbuying CNC features they may not need.

Material Prep Before Forming

Shears help prepare clean, straight blanks before press brake forming, rolling, welding, or assembly.

Features & benefits

Shear Features That Matter

The right shear comes down to thickness capacity, cut length, blade gap control, cutting angle, backgauge accuracy, front support, safety, and daily workflow.

Controlled Straight-Line Cutting

Hydraulic shearing gives shops a fast way to process sheet material into accurate blanks.

Backgauge Positioning

Backgauge control helps operators repeat cuts and maintain consistent blank dimensions.

Blade Gap Adjustment

Blade gap setup helps match the shear to material thickness and cut quality requirements.

Cutting Angle Control

AS Series CNC guillotine shears offer cutting angle control for better setup flexibility across different materials.

Front Support for Sheet Handling

Front supports help operators position material more safely and accurately before the cut.

Safety and Workflow

Safety guards and operator-focused machine layout help support a cleaner, more controlled cutting process.

Technical specs

Technical Specifications

Final specifications depend on selected shear model, material thickness, cut length, controller, blade gap system, backgauge configuration, front support, and safety package.

FAQ

Shears FAQ

What is the difference between a guillotine shear and a swing beam shear?

A guillotine shear moves the blade more vertically and is often better suited for controlled production shearing with more adjustment capability. A swing beam shear uses a pivoting beam motion and is typically a simpler, practical option for general sheet cutting and blank preparation.

When should I choose the AS Series?

Choose the AS Series when the shop needs CNC control, automatic blade gap adjustment, automatic cutting angle adjustment, accurate backgauge positioning, and better setup flexibility across different materials.

When should I choose the BS Series?

Choose the BS Series when the shop needs dependable hydraulic shearing, NC backgauge control, manual blade gap adjustment, and a simpler machine for everyday blank preparation.

What information is needed to quote a shear?

A good shear quote needs material type, maximum thickness, cut length, desired controller, backgauge requirements, front support needs, safety requirements, facility layout, voltage, and expected production volume.

Can a shear replace a laser or plasma?

A shear is best for fast straight-line blanking. It does not replace contour cutting from a laser or plasma, but it can be much faster and more cost-effective for straight cuts and material prep.

Who handles installation, service, and warranty?

Service, warranty, installation, training, and technical support are coordinated with the manufacturer or authorized provider unless otherwise stated.
