The shears are driven by electric motor 1. Pulley 2, sitting on the electric motor shaft, uses a V-belt drive 3 to rotate flywheel 4. Flywheel 4 is mounted on drive shaft I. At the other end of shaft I, an inertial flywheel 10 is mounted. A gear is mounted on shaft I 5, which is in mesh with a gear 6, which is fixed to the intermediate shaft II. Gear 7 is mounted on the other end of shaft II and is in mesh with gear 8, inside of which the engagement clutch 9 with rotary keys is mounted. The clutch is turned on and off by an electromagnet 11, a system of levers 12 and springs located on the clutch cover. When the electromagnet is turned on, the clutch transmits rotational motion to the eccentric shaft III, which, through connecting rods 13, causes the knife beam 14 to reciprocate. When the knife beam moves downward, the clamping beam 17 presses the sheet being cut to the table at the moment of cutting. The movement of the clamp is associated with the movement of the knife beam. To reduce dynamic loads, knife beam balancers 15 are provided. The rise of the clamp 17 occurs when the knife beam is lifted, when the stops 18 installed on it pull the clamp upward.
To stop the knife beam 14 in the uppermost position, a brake 19 is used, installed at the right end of shaft III.
Description of the components of crank sheet shears N3121
Scissor bed N3121
All mechanisms and components of crank sheet scissors N3121 are mounted on the frame.
The frame is a welded structure consisting of two racks connected to each other by ties and a table. The table is attached to the stands with bolts. The lower knives are attached to the table with screws. A slide is provided to remove cut workpieces.
Crank sheet shear drive N3121
The electric motor of the scissors is hinged on the bed plate. The tension of the V-belts is adjusted by changing the angle of inclination of the electric motor using a tension screw.
Clutch for engaging crank shears H3121
The design of the engagement coupling with rotary keys is shown in the figure.
The engagement clutch is rigidly attached to the wheel hub 12 using bushing 2. When the electromagnet is turned off, bushing 2 rotates freely with wheel 12 without engaging with bushing 7, which is wedged relative to shaft 14 and key 13. Bushings 8 and 9 are plain bearings.
When the electromagnet is turned on, the shank 4, located at the right end of the key 10, is released from the stop of the electromagnet, and the springs 6 actuate the levers 5. The levers 5 rotate the working 10 and locking key 11 of the engagement clutch, and they occupy a working position, entering the grooves of the bushings 7 and 2, rigidly connect them to each other. From wheel 12 through bushings 1, 2, 3, rotation is transmitted to bushing 7, from it through key 13, rotation is transmitted to shaft 14. The shaft makes one revolution (working stroke), the shank rests on the pin, turning the working key 10 and, at the same time, through levers 5 locking key 11, the clutch is disconnected.
In idle mode, the gear rotates freely on a pair of plain bearings 8 and 9.
Knife beam of crank shears H3121
The knife beam is an L-shaped welded structure, reinforced with stiffeners. The cutting knives are attached to the beam with screws.
Clamp and protective grid of crank shears H3121
While the scissors are working, the sheet being cut is pressed against the table by a pressure beam. As the cutter beam moves downwards, the clamping beam clamps the sheet, and then the cut begins. The lifting of the clamp is carried out by the stops of the knife beam, resting against the clamping plates.
The clamping force is adjusted using nuts that compress the spring of the clamping beam.
A protective grille is rigidly attached to the guide bars of the clamp, protecting the worker’s hands from falling under the clamp. When the protective grill is removed, the electrical interlock is activated and the scissors are automatically switched off.
Rear scissor stop N3121
The installation is equipped with a back stop for cutting sheets of a given size. The back stop consists of a stop ruler and two cylindrical slats that are moved manually. When cutting a sheet longer than 500 mm, the stop corner is removed.
Crank shear balancers H3121
Balancers serve to compensate for the weight of the cutter beam, reducing dynamic loads when working with scissors.
The balancer consists of two sets of springs installed in cups welded to the channel box of the frame.
The balancer rods are pivotally connected to the knife beam.
Scissor guards H3121
The shear guards have a welded design and are made of thin sheet steel. Consists of four casings that cover the motor pulley, flywheel, V-belt gear and gears. All fences are attached to the frame with bolts.

Preparation of crank shears N3121 for work and operating procedure
The requirements set out below are mandatory when starting up the shears after installation, as well as after repairs or a long break in operation.
- Ground the H3121 scissors, connect it to the electrical network, checking the compliance of the network voltage and the electrical equipment of the scissors.
- Follow the instructions in the Lubrication section.
- Check the tightness of all bolts and their locking.
- Turn on the introductory machine. In this case, the “Voltage applied” signal lamp should light up. If the signal lamp does not light up, it is necessary to check the voltage in the network in accordance with the technical operation rules, because the absence of a signal does not yet indicate a lack of voltage.
- Turn on the drive electric motor by pressing the “Start” button and accelerate the flywheel. Check the direction of rotation of the large gear sitting at the end of the eccentric shaft on the clutch side. The gear should rotate clockwise when viewed from the clutch side. Reverse rotation is not allowed.
- Run the N3121 scissors for two hours, of which one hour on single strokes and one hour on automatic ones. At the same time, check the interaction of all components and parts of the scissors.
Purpose and scope
H3121 guillotine shears are used for cutting when the cross-sectional thickness is more than 6.3 millimeters. In this case, the density of the material being processed should not exceed 150 kg/m2, since otherwise the created force will not be enough.
The main area of application of the N series guillotine is workshops and warehouses of various enterprises where metal cutting work is carried out. Model H3121 is in demand:
- at machine-building, automobile-building, and shipbuilding enterprises, where sheet metal blanks are used to create hulls and other structural elements;
- at procurement sites, where sheet material arrives, is cut and sent to the production workshop.

High productivity and relative compactness determine that H series guillotines are used in large-scale production with the installation of a conveyor feed of workpieces. Quick setup from the operator's station allows you to reduce equipment downtime due to the receipt of workpieces of different thicknesses or lengths.
Operating procedure for crank sheet shears H3121
Before starting work, you must meet the following requirements:
- Lubricate the scissors
- Adjust the back stop to the required cutting length of the workpiece. The distance from the cutting edges of the lower knife to the back stop is determined by rulers mounted on the back stop slats.
- Set the required gap between the upper and lower knives. To do this, it is necessary to loosen the bolts pos. 1 and pos. 3, Figure 5, which secure the table to the frame. By manually rotating the flywheel according to the arrow indicated on the casing, lower the knife beam down until the table knives and knife beam overlap (10 mm - overlap of the knives).
- Move the table forward and set the required gap, then, lowering the knife beam down, measure the gap along the entire length of the knives from left to right. After setting the gap, tighten the bolts. The table moves backward relative to the knife beam using bolts in position 2, Figure 5. The gaps between the guides and the knife beam are secured with spacers, position 4, Figure 5.
The gap size is set according to the table
Thickness of the sheet being cut, mm | 5-6 | 7-8 | 9-12 | 12-16 | 17-20 |
Gap size, mm | 0,3 | 0,4 | 0,5 | 0,6 | 0,7 |
- Engage the clutch at maximum flywheel speed.
- Make several idle strokes, make sure that the scissors are working properly
During operation:
- Do not allow unauthorized persons to access the scissors.
- DO NOT ALLOW CUTTING SHEET OF MAXIMUM THICKNESS WITH A STRENGTH LIMIT MORE THAN 500 MPa The maximum thickness of a sheet with a tensile strength more than 500 MPa is determined by the formula: δх = δ x 500/σх mm. where δх is the maximum permissible thickness of a sheet with a tensile strength more than 500 MPa σх is the limit strength of the sheet being cut, MPa.
- DO NOT CUTTING SHEET WITH DULL KNIVES. The knives are made with four cutting edges; when the cutting edges become dull, the knives are periodically turned over. Dull knives must be ground.
- When cutting workpieces longer than 800 mm, to avoid sheet shrinkage, use supports to support the workpiece being cut.
- If there is no electricity, turn off the input circuit breaker in the electrical cabinet
Upon completion of work:
- Stop the shear drive.
- Turn off the input circuit breaker.
- Clean the scissors and lubricate it.
- Notify your replacement about any problems you notice.

The following receive power from the power circuit:
- A. Main drive electric motor.
- b. Pulling electromagnet.
- V. The control, lighting and alarm circuits receive power from the secondary windings of the 2T transformer.
Control and protection equipment (transformer, magnetic starters, circuit breaker) are located in the electrical cabinet.
The operation of the scissors is controlled from the control panel.
Description of the operation of the electrical circuit
The electrical circuit provides the ability to operate the scissors in the following modes: “Single stroke”; "Automatic moves."
The selection of the operating mode is carried out by readjusting the scissors (by adjusting the electromagnet thrust) and setting the operating mode switches PR and PU to the desired position, located in the lockable control panel. When resetting the PR and PU switches, the electric motor must be turned off with the 2KU button.
Single move mode
In this mode, operation with a button and a pedal is possible. The PR switch is set to the “Single stroke” position. The thrust of the electromagnet is mechanically adjusted.
a) Button Control
The PU switch is set to the “Button” position. When you press the “Drive Start” button (2KU) along the circuit 1-9-7-15-19-23-3-2, the magnetic starter 1K is turned on, which turns on the main drive electric motor (1D).
Through the normally closed contacts of the 4KU button and the 2K magnetic starter, the 1RP relay receives power via circuit 19-17-115-21-2, becomes self-powered, and with its normally open contacts (circuit 25-31) prepares the 2K magnetic starter, which turns on the electromagnet, for switching on. When you press the 4KU button, the 2K starter is turned on, and therefore the electromagnet E. The 2K starter, turning on, breaks the circuit 21-115 with its normally closed contact,
1 PR turns off and turns off with its no. O. contact circuit 25-31. This turns off the electromagnet E., i.e., electrical blocking from doubling of strokes.
b) Pedal control
The PU mode switch is set to the “Pedal control” position. When you press the “Drive Start” button (2KU), it turns on the electric motor of the main drive 1D.
When you press the pedal, the 2K magnetic starter and electromagnet E are turned on.
Electrical blocking against doubling of strokes is carried out in the same way as when operating buttons.
Automatic mode
The electromagnet thrust for automatic strokes is mechanically adjusted. The PR operating mode switch is set to the “Automatic” position, and the PU switch is set to the “Buttons” position.
When you press 4KU, the 2K magnetic starter is triggered and turns off the electromagnet. Starter 2K with its own no. O. contacts 25-105 become self-powered, automatic movements occur until the 3KU button is pressed.
Locking and alarm
Locking, which ensures complete voltage relief from all equipment when opening the electrical cabinet door, is achieved by turning off the 1A circuit breaker.
The interlock, which ensures that the control circuit is turned off, is achieved by the 1VK limit switch located in the electrical cabinet, which turns off the control circuit when the door is opened.
The blocking, which excludes the possibility of obtaining moves when the protective grille is raised, is carried out by the 2VK end.
The blocking, which prevents the clutch from engaging when operating on “Single and automatic strokes” without turning on the main drive, is achieved by contact 1K (circuit 15-19).
The electrical circuit provides an alarm indicating the presence of voltage in the control circuit. When voltage is applied, a white 1LS lamp on the control panel lights up.
When the main drive motor is turned on, green lamp 2 lights up on the control panel (engine is on).
Protection
Protection of the electrical equipment of the scissors from short circuit currents is carried out by a 1A circuit breaker and fuses 2P, 3P, 4P.
Thermal protection of the main drive motor is carried out by a thermal relay RT, built into 1K magnetic starters.
Zero protection of the electrical circuit is provided by magnetic starters 1K, 2K.
Safety precautions
The electrical equipment of the shears must be reliably grounded in accordance with the current “Rules for Electrical Installations” by connecting the shear frame and electrical cabinet to the workshop grounded circuit.
Before starting work, inspect the scissors and check the grounding.
In order to increase the safety of operating personnel, the electrical circuit provides for locking:
- electrical cabinet doors;
- control panel doors.
During long breaks in scissor work or after the end of the shift, the input circuit breaker is turned off.
The first switching on of the circuit breaker should be carried out briefly, followed by inspection and verification of the correctness of the light signals.
The control panel has a red mushroom-shaped “General Stop” button (1KU) to completely disable the circuit.
It is strictly forbidden to work with scissors if the locks are faulty.
The installation of PU and PR switches is carried out by an adjuster.
Access to the electrical cabinet is permitted only to electrical personnel assigned to the machine.
Security measures
- Safety of work on N3121 scissors is ensured by the installation of protective covers on all rotating parts, the presence of a protective grille equipped with an additional electrical lock that stops the scissors when the protective grille is removed. The electrical cabinet is equipped with special locks that prevent access to it by unauthorized persons.
- When changing knives and repairing scissors, the knife beam should be fixed in the upper position with pins with a diameter of 25 mm inserted into special technological holes in the knife beam.
- During operation of the scissors, it is necessary to ensure that the knife beam remains in its highest position, which
- achieved by correct brake adjustment.
IT IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED:
- Allow persons who do not have the necessary qualifications and have not undergone safety training to work with scissors.
- Working with faulty scissors.
- Work with scissors with the guards and protective grilles removed.
- Carry out repair and adjustment work, as well as cleaning and lubricating the shears with the electric motor running.
