Capital Guillotines

CAPITAL HYDRAULIC GUILLOTINES – PRECISION SHEET-METAL AND PLATE CUTTING SOLUTIONS

Capital hydraulic guillotines combine heavy-duty construction, reliable hydraulic operation and accurate material positioning to deliver clean, consistent cuts across a wide range of sheet-metal and plate applications.

Available in multiple cutting capacities, bed lengths and control configurations, each machine can be selected and equipped to suit your material type, maximum thickness, sheet dimensions, production requirements and budget.

The rigid, fully welded machine frame provides the strength and stability required for dependable cutting accuracy. Hydraulic operation delivers smooth blade movement, while programmable backgauges allow operators to quickly and accurately position material for both individual cuts and repeat-production work.

Available configurations include hydraulic swing-beam and variable-rake guillotines, with controller options ranging from straightforward NC systems through to advanced touchscreen CNC controls. Selected models allow the backgauge position, cutting angle, blade clearance and stroke length to be programmed from the controller.

Capital hydraulic guillotines are suitable for general fabrication, sheet-metal workshops, switchboard manufacturing, ducting, transport equipment, mining components, agricultural machinery, tanks, structural fabrication and production cutting.

Capital Equipment Machinery Sales can assist with machine selection, delivery, installation, commissioning, operator training, servicing and ongoing technical support. Our team can also help determine the correct cutting capacity by considering material tensile strength rather than relying on plate thickness alone.

Provide us with your material type, maximum cutting thickness, required cutting length and expected production volume, and we can recommend the most suitable Capital guillotine and control configuration for your application.
