Power Units for Strip Shears
Although Vale Hydraulic Power Units are rated at 345 BAR continuous duty, they are operated at 310 BAR which provides a wider operating safety margin and extends the service life of the system. For detailed specifications and features please refer to catalog page 140.
When selecting a Power Unit you need to be able to select the system that will achieve the cutting speeds you need. The speed of the cut will be in direct proportion to the flow of hydraulic fluid produced by the power unit. To determine the speed of Vale Shears in relation to various Vale Power Units please refer to catalog page 170.
