It can cut through flat bars, angle iron, round and square rods, and even structural steel sections with ease. This makes it useful for creating parts with precise dimensions in metal fabrication.
Notching:
The machines can notch metal sheets and plates at precise angles, making it easier to fit pieces together during fabrication. This function is particularly useful for creating joints in metal structures.
Bending:
Some hydraulic ironworker machines come with bending attachments or accessories that allow them to bend metal bars, tubes, and plates into various shapes. This adds to the machine’s versatility and makes it capable of handling a wide range of metalworking tasks.
Shearing:
In addition to cutting flat bars and plates, hydraulic ironworkers can also shear metal sections such as angle iron and channel beams. This makes it useful for quickly and accurately cutting metal stock to size.
