Hydraulic Wire Rope Cutters

OMEGA’ HYDRAULIC WIRE ROPE/CABLE CUTTER. It works on Hydraulic principle, as the name suggests, and is meant to cut cleanly and easily, wire ropes/cables of various sizes.

CONSTRUCTION:

'OMEGA' Wire Rope/Cable cutter consists of a hydraulic plunger pump which when actuated by the handle, release valve being in closed condition, pumps oil in the cylinder, forcing the ram out.

The ram has a cutting blade attached to it and this pierces the wire rope or cable held against a pair of 'U' shaped blades housed in 'U' blade holder, which is hinged to the cutter body at the bottom and upper link (latch) at the top. This arrangement enables the cutter to be employed at any point of an endless wire rope or cable. Normal cutting time is about 4 to 5 minutes.

Two types of plunger are provided, the smaller plunger makes the travel slow of the ram, and bigger plunger fastens the travel of ram thereby making the cutting operation faster.

The release valve provided at the top enables the self retracting ram to return to its position. The air valve ensures smooth working of the ram.

FEATURES:

• The cutter has steel construction with case hardened pins and hardened & ground tool steel cutting blades and 'U'blades.
• Being Compact & light weight makes it portable and convenient to employ in places with restricted floor space.
• Integral Pump and cutter Body does away with hose pipe, loose fittings, and costly maintenance, and gives ease of operation and handling. Interchangeability of parts facilitates replacement.
