Method and device for trimming heavy plates

摘要

With known trimming shears having a pair of scrap-cutting blades on the discharge side, the moving upper scrap-cutting blade must be moved as closely as possible past the trimmed plate edge in order to push the cutoff edge still hanging on the plate downward against the lower fixed scrap-cutting blade, which requires precise adjustment of the upper scrap-cutting blade. To that end, according to the invention, the distance between the upper scrap-cutting blade (2) or the lower scrap-cutting blade (3) and the trimming blade plane (5) is set prior to trimming in accordance with the thickness of each heavy plate (10) to be trimmed by displacement of the upper scrap-cutting blade (2) and/or the lower scrap-cutting blade (3) in a displacement direction with at least one component transverse to the trimming blade plane (5).

1. A method of trimming heavy plates (10) with heavy plate shears that have trimming blades (7, 8) spanning a trimming blade plane (4); wherein scrap edges (12) produced during trimming are cut off in scrap pieces by a scrap-cutting device arranged, in a transportation direction of a heavy plate, behind the trimming blades (7, 8) and having a scrap-cutting upper blade and a scrap-cutting lower blade, and wherein the scrap-cutting upper blade and the scrap-cutting lower blade span a scrap-cutting plane, characterized
in that a distance (5) between the scrap-cutting upper blade and the trimming blade plane (4) is adjusted before a respective trimming process dependent on a thickness of a respective to-be-trimmed plate (10) by displacement of the scrap-cutting upper blade in a displacement direction, with at least one component transverse to the trimming blade plane (4); in that in addition to the distance (5) between the scrap-cutting upper blade and the trimming blade plane (4), also the scrap-cutting blade clearance (6) is adjusted dependent on the thickness of the to-be-trimmed heavy plate (10), by displacement of the scrap-cutting upper blade in the displacement direction, together with a further component, transverse to the scrap-cutting blade plane spanned by the scrap-cutting blades; in that displacements of the scrap-cutting upper blade is carried out simultaneously transverse to the trimming blade plane (4) and transverse to the scrap-cutting blade plane; in that the scrap-cutting upper blade is secured in a carriage displaceable in a guide for the scrap-cutting blade carriage; and in that the simultaneous displacement of the scrap-cutting upper blade transverse to the trimming blade plane and transverse to the scrap-cutting lower blade is carried out by rotation of at least one eccentric shaft (21) operationally connected with the guide for the scrap-cutting blade carriage (20, 20′).
