This SAFAN VS 2050 X 3 MM is a guillotine shear — also commonly referred to as a guillotine cutter or plate shear — a machine designed to make straight, clean cuts across sheet metal and plate stock. Guillotine shears are a fundamental tool in metal fabrication, steel processing, and sheet metal workshops, where precise, high-volume cutting of flat material is required. SAFAN is a well-established Dutch manufacturer with a long-standing reputation in the sheet metal working industry, producing guillotine shears, press brakes, and related fabrication equipment for industrial and trade customers across Europe and beyond.
This used machine is located in Belgium and is offered in used condition. The key cutting specification is a working length of 2050 mm, allowing it to process wide sheets of material in a single pass. The maximum sheet thickness capacity is 3 mm for st 45 steel, which refers to a mild structural steel grade — a common benchmark used in European shear specifications to indicate the machine's rated cutting force relative to a material of defined tensile strength.
It should be noted that this machine is offered without a backgauge, meaning the automatic or manual depth-stop mechanism for positioning the sheet before each cut is not present. Buyers who require precise, repeatable cut depths will need to account for this and either source a compatible backgauge separately or plan for alternative positioning methods in their workflow.
