Trumpf C 160-5

The Trumpf C 160-5 Slitting Shears are a versatile and efficient tool for cutting sheet metal. This compressed-air tool is capable of cutting straight or curved exterior and interior cutouts in steel, aluminum, and plastic. With a working speed of 8-13 m/min (26-42 ft/min) and a maximum operating pressure of 6.2 bar (90 psi), the C 160-5 can quickly and easily cut through even thick materials. The C 160-5 is also equipped with an adjustable parallel stop, which allows for precise and consistent cutting of parallel strips.

3.3 Selection of tools

Information

The blades have 2 cutting edges. They cannot be resharpened.

Different types of blades are required according to the thickness or

tensile strength of the workpiece (see Tab. 5, p. 10).

Information

If the blade is not selected as specified in the table,

– the quality of cut will be severely impaired.

– the feed power increases significantly.

– the blade will break.
