XS - Range

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 holddowns 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 utilisation, 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. Centralised 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.

punch station

The large punch bed area has a removable front block and is designed to give a very wide range of punching applications. A punch table with rules and guides for repetition work are fitted as standard equipment.

angle station

This station provides large capacity angle cutting at 90° and 45°. Angles between 45° and 90° can be achieved by first cutting at 90° and then flange in the shearing station.

section cutting station

The machines are fitted as standard with blades for cutting round and square bars. With extra equipment, the machines are table to cut, in this aperture, channel, joist, T-sections and may other special profiles.

shearing

The shearing unit is fitted with a simple robust holddown which is adjustable to any thickness of material within the cutting capacity of the machine. The shear feed table with adjustable guides is fitted to allow accurate feeding of materials. The guide can be adjusted to allow mitre cutting up to 45° for flat bars or to trim the flanges of angle.

notching station

The notching station is fitted as standard with a rectangular notch table with adjustable back stops, allowing repetitive positioning.
