Uni-Hydro plate shears outperform all other shears in quality of cut, durability, reliability and manageability. Using a patented mechanical linkage system coupled with a low rake blade the guillotine action on our plate shears is precision in action.
Single cylinder design
Built for forklift handling or lifting with overhead eyelet’s
Cylinder is center mounted on the blade and uses pivot arms to transfer energy to three pressure points
Independent hydraulic hold-down
36” Front operated manual back gauge, 24” squaring arm
Excellent visibility of cut
Electric Controls including foot switch
Even distribution of energy across the blade avoids “flexing” of the blade
No adjustment of blade gap when switching from thin to thick material
Fixed Low Rake Blade

Imagine taking a pair of scissors in your hand and cutting a tablet of paper. What happens? If you have enough strength to cut thru a tablet of paper, the pages are distorted. The actual amount of pressure at the tip of the scissors is going to be lower than the initial pressure applied. The actual pressure is 100% beginning the cut, 50% halfway thru and as low as 30% at the tip of the scissors.
Uni-Hydro Plate Shears produce a gain to 107% at the halfway point and complete a cut at 115%
The Uni-Hydro patented mechanical linkage system provides you a Gain in Power Performance
