What’s a guillotine shear?

Guillotine shears are a type of shear, or cutting tool, designed for precise, straight cuts with minimal effort. The blade moves in a single motion, easily slicing through materials such as metal and plastic, hence it’s guillotine name.

This type of shear is preferred in industrial and fabrication environments, because of its efficiency and consistent accuracy.
