The Kingstand "XS' range of 55 up to 160 ton machines are in the Kingsland tradition of well engineered, robust steelworkers, built for a long working life. These universal machines are supplied with standard tooling including repetition support tables at punch, shear and notch stations and with easily adjusted hold downs at all five work stations to safety control the operations. Comprehensive safety guards are fitted as standard on all work stations. Free standing on a suitable floor, they just require electrical connection to be ready for work. For two operator utilization, the hydraulic system is activated by two shielded foot controls, one operating the punch end cylinder, the other operating the shear end cylinder. The shear cylinder provides the power to the three shearing and the notch stations. 

The system gives accurate power inching at all five work stations and allows the machines to be stopped at any position giving safe and accurate tool setting and work positioning. Limit switches at both ends of the machine control stroke length at all stations. Centralized lubrication is metered by one-shot system, being only one feature of the low maintenance requirement. The machine comes equipped with a 'Touch & Cut' ruled length stop as standard.
