Shearing is one of the fastest and most efficient ways to cut sheet metal to size with clean, straight edges. With the expertise of our highly skilled fabricators and machine operators, we are able to maintain tight tolerances and high repeatability, ensuring each cut is square, accurate, and ready for the next stage of fabrication. One of the critical advantages of shearing is that it produces minimal waste while delivering smooth edges that often require little to no secondary finishing.
Our shearing machines allow us to process a wide range of materials including stainless steel, mild steel, aluminum, brass, copper, and other sheet metals. With the ability to handle sheet sizes up to 10 feet long, Freedom Fabricators is equipped to take on both small-batch projects and high-volume production runs.
By combining modern shearing equipment with strategic part nesting, we maximize material yield, reduce costs, and deliver high-quality parts at competitive turnaround times.
FAQ’s About Our Shearing Process
What is metal shearing?
Shearing is a cutting process that uses a powerful blade to slice through sheet metal, creating straight, clean cuts without burning, melting, or distorting the material.
What materials can you shear?
We can shear a variety of metals including stainless steel, mild steel, aluminum, brass, and copper. Our machines are designed to handle different thicknesses with precision.
What thicknesses of metal can you shear?
Depending on the material type, our shearing equipment can cut sheet metal up to ¼ inch thick, while maintaining tight tolerances and clean edges.
What are the advantages of shearing compared to other cutting methods?
Shearing is fast, cost-effective, and produces minimal waste. It also delivers straight edges with little to no finishing required, making it ideal for projects that demand efficiency and accuracy.
Can you handle large sheet sizes?
Yes. Our shearing machines can process sheet metal up to 10 feet in length, making them suitable for both small custom parts and larger industrial projects.
Do you offer production shearing for bulk orders?
Absolutely. Whether you need a single cut or high-volume production, our team is equipped to provide consistent, repeatable results with quick turnaround times.
