Which sheet metal shear should I choose for small workshop use?

For small parts and thin sheet metal, a compact model is usually the easiest to place and operate. The NOVA SL8 Mini Shear Brake is suitable when you need both cutting and bending in a small machine, while smaller hand shears are practical for simple manual cutting.

When is a hydraulic sheet cutter the right choice?

A hydraulic sheet cutter is recommended when you cut larger sheets, thicker material or repeated batches. For example, the NOVA 4 x 2030 hydraulic sheet cutter is built for 4 mm sheet metal with a 2030 mm working width, while wider professional models are available for demanding production needs.

Can I punch holes or notch corners with these machines?

Yes, the range includes machines for more than straight cutting. The NOVA HP-20 Hand Puncher is designed for accurate manual punching, and the NOVA HN-6 Hydraulic Angle Grinder is intended for industrial corner notching. For bending after cutting, see sheet metal brakes .

Are blades, dies and spare parts available for sheet metal shears?

Yes. Many spare parts are available directly from stock, including blades and punch tooling for selected models. For example, the HS-6 / HS-8 / HS-10 / HS-12 plate shear blade set supports the compact HS shears, and HP20 punch and die sets are available in several sizes.

How should a sheet metal shear be maintained?

Keep the machine clean, check blade condition and clearance, tighten fastening points when needed and lubricate moving parts according to the product instructions. If you need support, NOVA service helps customers through the Seinäjoki store location, and suitable consumables for metalworking are available from NOVA Pro .

What warranty do sheet metal shears normally have?

The warranty is normally one year for these machines. Some products or factory-order professional models may have model-specific conditions, so always check the product data before ordering. Warranty information is shown on the product page when it applies.

Where are the machines shipped from and how fast is delivery?

Shipments are sent from Finland. Machines are generally kept in stock, and delivery for in-stock products is normally 2–4 business days depending on destination. A few top-tier professional models are sold on request, so check the product details for live stock status before ordering.

Sheet metal shears for accurate cutting

A good sheet metal shear makes cutting faster, cleaner and more repeatable than cutting by hand. The selection includes compact bench-top tools, manual plate shears, foot-operated shears, electric shears and hydraulic sheet cutters for heavier workshop use.

Models are available for different materials and work sizes, from small 200 mm mini shear brakes to wide plate shears with working widths over 2000 mm. When comparing machines, focus on maximum sheet thickness, working width, back gauge range, frame weight and the type of operation that best fits your daily work.

Choose the right shear for your work

For small parts, thin sheet and occasional use, a compact shear or mini shear brake is easy to place in a workshop and quick to operate. Manual plate shears are practical for cutting sheet metal, flat bar and round steel without electrical installation.

Foot-operated plate shears are a good choice when you need both control and repeatability. Adjustable back gauges, front stops and material clamps help keep cuts consistent, especially when making multiple similar parts.

Electric and hydraulic shears are designed for heavier production and larger sheets. They offer higher capacity, faster cutting cycles and better efficiency when processing long sheets or thicker material.

Punching, notching and forming support

Sheet metal work often requires more than straight cutting. The range also includes machines for punching and notching, such as hand punchers and hydraulic corner notchers. These are useful when preparing holes, corners and cut-outs before bending, assembly or welding.

If you need several functions in one compact machine, combination shear, brake and roll machines can be a practical option for smaller workshops and educational use.

Blades, dies and spare parts

Consumables and wear parts are important for keeping cutting quality consistent. Replacement blades are available for several shear models, and punch and die sets are available for the HP20 hand puncher in multiple sizes.

Many spare parts are available directly from stock. Regularly checking blade condition, clearances, lubrication points and fastening bolts helps extend machine life and keeps cuts clean.

Stock, delivery and support from Finland

Machines are generally kept in stock, while a few top-tier professional models are sold on request. Always check the product page for live stock status and model-specific technical data.

Shipments are sent from Finland, and skilled staff can help you choose the right machine for your material thickness, working width and production needs. NOVA service supports customers through the Seinäjoki store location.
