How Slitting Shears Work

These specialised tools feature sharp blades that create precise cuts along the material, allowing users to separate sheets into desired widths without generating waste. By employing controlled cutting mechanisms, slitting shears ensure clean, accurate cuts while minimising material distortion.

What is the difference between slitting and shearing?
Slitting is the process of cutting a steel coil into the different lengths and widths you require, whereas shearing is the process of trimming a metal sheet until it fits your desired dimensions. These two processes are slightly different as they require specific machinery and tools to achieve. The TRUMPF slitting shears are ideal for slitting as they can cut metal sheets into the shapes and sizes you require.
What is the difference between a mill edge and a slit edge?
A mill edge is the original edge of a sheet of metal that has come straight from the rolling mill. It is typically rough and can have burrs and imperfections. On the other hand, a slit edge is the processed edge of a metal sheet that has been refined and cut. These edges are smoother without burrs and are more uniform, unlike a mill edge.
