Plasma profiler agency for Press & Shear

Press & Shear has been appointed sole UK agent for Turkish machine tool manufacturer Baykal's range of CNC plasma cutting systems.

The plasma cutting machines have table sizes from 1.5 m by 3 m up to 3 m by 12 m. Other specifications for the plasma cutting machines includes ± 0.1 mm accuracy, 30 m/min axis positioning, ballscrew torch height positioning with patented crash detection, and Windows-based control with automatic nesting capability.

"Most sheet metal sub-contractors and OEMs know us as the UK source for turret punch presses, laser profilers and combination machines from Finn-Power. More recently we have taken on the agency for Italian-built Technojet water jet cutting machines," says Mark Britton, Press & Shear's managing director.

"Baykal's plasma cutting systems neatly complete our portfolio of sheet metal and plate profiling machines, and as they are from one of our existing principals, adoption of the products into our range will be seamless. Our applications and service engineers are currently undergoing training at the factory in Bursa, northwest Turkey."

In 2003, Press & Shear signed a similar agency agreement, which is ongoing, to sell and service Baykal's CNC press brakes.
