Overview

What This Machine Does

The Q35Y-20 is a combined punching and shearing machine, the hydraulic ironworker that replaces four separate machines in a steel fabrication shop. Its five basic functions are punching, steel shearing, plate shearing, angle iron shearing and template shearing, and the tooling stations extend that to round and square bar shearing, rectangular notching, V-notching, channel shear, I-beam shear, T-bar shearing, press braking, angle bending and pipe notching. Hydraulic drive holds force through the full stroke, which is what lets one machine punch a hole and then shear a section without changing its character. Standard equipment includes a quick-change coupling nut and sleeve for fast tool changes, a squaring arm with scale, an electronic back gauge, a gauging table with stops, a punching base table and safety guards. The machine is classified under HS 8462 and is made in the Q35Y series as Q35Y-16, Q35Y-20, Q35Y-25 and Q35Y-30.

Key Benefits

Why Buyers Choose This Machine

  • Five basic functions in one machine replace separate punch shear and notching equipment
  • Quick-change coupling nut and sleeve makes punch changes fast between jobs
  • Electronic back gauge and gauging table with stops repeat cut and hole positions
  • Squaring arm with scale keeps cuts square without marking out every piece
  • Hydraulic drive holds full force through the stroke across all the stations
  • Angle bending press braking and pipe notching handled without a second machine
  • Safety guards fitted as standard equipment rather than added afterwards
Application

Where Q35Y-20 Hydraulic Ironworker Punching and Sheari Earns Its Place

Problems It Solves

  • Buying separate punch shear and notching machines ties up floor space and capital
  • Drilling bolt holes in section is far slower than punching them
  • Cutting angle and channel with a saw or torch leaves an edge that needs dressing
  • Marking out every hole and cut position is slow and introduces errors
  • Notching and coping by hand with a grinder gives inconsistent joint fit

Who It Is For

  • Steel fabrication and structural workshops
  • Gate fence and grating manufacturers working in section
  • Maintenance and plant workshops cutting and punching steel
  • Distributors supplying ironworkers to fabrication shops

Application Scenarios

  • Fabricating steel structures from angle channel and flat bar
  • Punching bolt holes in plate and section before assembly
  • Notching and coping sections for welded joints
  • Cutting round and square bar to length in a fabrication shop
  • Light press braking and angle bending without setting up a press brake

Comparison

How It Compares With the Alternatives

Separate shear punch and notching machinesSeparate machines each need their own floor space power and operator; the Q35Y-20 covers punching shearing notching and bending in one station layout
QC12Y hydraulic swing beam shearThe QC12Y is the machine for wide plate cutting to full width; the Q35Y-20 is for section work bar cutting punching and notching rather than long plate cuts
Drilling holes and cutting with a saw or torchDrilling and thermal cutting are slower per hole and per cut and leave edges that need dressing; punching and shearing produce a finished edge directly
Use Guide

Running the Machine

Step 1

Choose the station for the operation punching shearing notching or bending

Step 2

Fit the punch and die or blade set using the quick-change coupling nut and sleeve

Step 3

Set the back gauge and the gauging table stops for the hole or cut position

Step 4

Use the squaring arm with scale to hold the piece square to the blade

Step 5

Make a test piece and check hole position and cut squareness before the batch

Step 6

Keep the guards in place and hands clear of the die and blade area

Step 7

Check hydraulic oil level and look for leaks as part of routine maintenance
