it device It is also known as nibbling (punching) scissors and is most often used to perform figured cutting on sheet and profiled metal (great for working with metal tiles), but it is also applicable in working with plastic. The working part of the tool is rotated all 360 degrees, due to which the tilt during cutting is easily adjustable, so that almost any cuts can be made at the required angle. Here it is worth noting the fact that the device has two working parts, so when the resource of one of them completely runs out, it will be enough just to twist the handle to the other side.
The principle of operation of such a nozzle is as follows - the material is “bitten” between a movable punch (rod), which has a protrusion and is set in motion by an eccentric mechanism and the matrix, and is then simply cut out. Note that the cut width of the device corresponds to 4 mm. The cut turns out to be quite clean, without burrs and looks much better than a cut with a grinder with an abrasive wheel.
The main characteristics of the nozzle are as follows:
• recommended speed: 1500 - 3000 rpm;
• minimum cutting radius: 12 mm;
• material: metal (nozzle) + plastic (handle);
• Dimensions: 18 mm x 5.1 mm x 7.8 mm (L x W x H).
The fixture is equipped with a universal wrench (4 mm hexagon and 12 mm “open end”) for its assembly - disassembly.
Maximum thickness of materials suitable for cutting:
• ordinary steel: 1.8 mm;
• stainless steel: 1.2 mm;
• aluminum and copper: 2 mm;
• plastic: 2 mm.
During the cutting process no sparks are formed, but small chips fly in shape resembling hooks. They are sharp enough and stick into everything around, so you should work with caution and protect the surrounding surface. We also note that before work, the cut surface should be securely fixed with a vice, clamps or other devices.
