hydraulic punch and shear_

Billet shearing involves applying a shearing force to sever a billet at a predetermined score. The process is typically carried out using specialized equipment known as shears or cutting machines, which can vary in design and complexity. The two primary types of shearing methods include mechanical and hydraulic shearing. Mechanical shears utilize a system of levers or gears to apply force, while hydraulic shears employ fluid pressure to generate a powerful cutting action.
