G-Cut Series Hydraulic Shears
The G-Cut series hydraulic shears are controlled with a user-friendly color touch screen. Safety systems include an accessible finger-protection safety fence, precision lighting on the cutting line, side doors and photocells.
What differentiates the Boschert Gizelis G-Cut from other machines?
Return to Front – Finished and appearance-sensitive pieces return to the operator instead of behind the machine. Reduces repetitive motion. Increases efficiency, productivity and safety. Narrow Strip Cutting – An unconventional approach to thin strip shearing eliminates waste and delivers a quality finished component nearly twist-free.
Auto Thickness Measurement – A simple sensor measures material thickness to optimize blade gap. Protects your blades. Eliminates guess work. Reduces waste and downtime from fold-over jams. Safer, easier, more efficient.

Safety Tip
Slip Hazards and Safety
Causes of Slips in the Workplace - Recognizing and addressing the hazards that cause slip incidents should be a focus in the workplace Slips happen when there is too little friction or traction between the footwear and the walking surface
Common causes and contributing factors of slips are:
Wet or oily surfaces
Spills
Poor weather conditions
Slip Prevention
Poor lighting conditions
Loose, unanchored rugs or mats
Flooring or other walking surfaces that do not have the same degree of traction in all areas
Practice good housekeeping to prevent slips in the workplace
Keep walkways and paths clear of water, snow, ice, oils, etc , to reduce slippery conditions
Place signage or barricades around slippery conditions to alert personnel in the area until it can be cleaned up
Secure floor mats or other materials that need to be on the ground, so they do not shift when individuals walk on them.
Wear the proper footwear for the conditions. Footwear with good tread makes better contact with the walking surface, which leads to less of a chance of a slip.
Take smaller steps or shuffle your feet when there are slippery conditions present that you cannot avoid Taking larger steps can lead to your balance being thrown off, resulting in a slip
