What are hydraulic steelworkers?

Universal steelworks or ironworkers as they are sometimes referred to, are a versatile machine that provides punching, shearing, notching and bending of plate, angle, bar and even box section and tube. Easy to operate, ideal for fabricators.

Steelworkers generate force using mechanical leverage or hydraulic systems. Modern systems use hydraulic rams powered by a heavy alternating current electric motor. High strength carbon steel blades and dies of various shapes are used to work the metal. The machine itself is made of very heavy steel to handle the enormous force that can be generated during use. Steelworkers are rated according to the force they can generate in tons; ratings usually start at 20 tons and go as high as 150 tons.

Due to the reduction in the amount of man hours and effort needed to cut or punch steel sections, an steelworker is often an integral part of commercial manufacturing facilities and fabrication shops. They are easily re-tooled for various operations and can be operated by one person.

A new links page has been added to the Prosaw website. It can be found at http://www.prosaw.co.uk/links.php  This new page will provide customers with links to our other websites, associate organisations and industry bodies.
