This used SAFAN HVS 2050 X 16 MM is a guillotine shear — also known as a guillotine cutter or plate shear — a machine designed to make straight, clean cuts across sheet metal and plate using a descending blade. SAFAN is a well-established Dutch manufacturer of sheet metal working machinery, producing equipment such as press brakes and shears for use in metal fabrication, engineering workshops, and industrial production environments.
The machine offers a cutting length of 2,050 mm, making it suitable for processing wide sheet material in a single pass. The maximum sheet thickness at st 45 material specification is 16 mm, indicating a substantial cutting capacity suited to heavy-gauge steel plate work. The backgauge reaches 1,250 mm, allowing the operator to position sheet material accurately and repeatedly for consistent cut dimensions across production runs.
The cutting edge is adjustable across a range of 0.5° to 4°, enabling the blade rake angle to be tuned to the material being cut — a finer angle for thicker or harder material and a steeper angle for thinner sheet, helping to optimise cut quality and reduce distortion. The machine is equipped with eleven sheet holders, which clamp and secure the workpiece firmly against the cutting table before and during the shearing stroke, minimising movement and helping to maintain accuracy and a clean cut edge.
This machine is offered in used condition and is located in Belgium.
