Crop and Cobble Shear

What are Shears & Why Do They Matter in Steel Rolling Mills?

In every rolling mill, shears play a crucial role. They are the machines responsible for cutting bars, billets, plates and metal sheets to precise lengths during different stages of production. Good quality shears not only improve the final product’s quality but also increase the efficiency of the entire plant.

At K.N. Engineering Works, we design and manufacture high-quality Crop and Cobble Shear that are built to adhere to the demanding conditions of rolling mills. With over two decades of experience and ISO 9001:2015 certification, we have become one of the most prominent names in the industry, delivering quality, durable and precise solutions for our esteemed customers across India, Bangladesh, Nepal, the Middle East and Africa.

Our Speciality: Crop and Cobble Shear

One of our most in-demand products is the Crop and Cobble Shear. These shears are designed to trim the head and tail ends of hot-rolled products and are also used for segment cutting during hot rolling. They are a crucial component of equipment because they keep the production line moving smoothly, ensuring that any irregularities are removed without disrupting the flow.

Key Features of Our Crop & Cobble Shear

Accurate Trimming

It maintains tight tolerances on cropped lengths, resulting in a high-quality finish.

PLC-based Control

Automated operation for maximum precision and easy to use.

Start/ Stop Design

Ideal for hot rolling mills, where controlled cutting is required.

Heavy-duty Drive Systems

Available in direct DC motors or flywheel-mounted pneumatic clutch and brake systems for better performance.

Built-to-last

Engineered for high-temperature environments and continuous operation.

If you invest in K.N. Engineering Works’ Crop and Cobble Shear, rolling mill owners can reduce downtime, improve product quality and achieve greater output.

Other Types of Shears We Manufacture

Our work testament goes beyond Crop and Cobble Shear. We offer a complete range of shears, each designed to meet certain requirements within a rolling mill:

Flying Shears

Flying shears cut material into certain lengths without hampering the production line. They are commonly used in TMT bar mills to ensure uninterrupted operations and higher productivity.

Cold Shears

Placed at the end of the cooling bed, cold shears are used for cutting metal into exact lengths. We offer three types:

1. Pneumatic Clutch Brake Type Cold Shear
2. Hydraulic Cold Shear
3. Electro-Mechanical Cold Shear

Each type is rugged, reliable, and tailored to suit the layout of your plant.

Rotary Shears

Rotary shears are continuously rotating units that cut head and tail ends or remove pre-quenched bars during emergencies. They are efficient, cost-effective, and ideal for use at slower rolling speeds.

Hot and Cold Saws

Hot saws are essential for cropping structural sections at the desired length, while cold saws are used for high-precision cutting of structural steel and high-alloy steels. Both are available in open and closed designs to match your plant’s needs.

Hydraulic Shears

Hydraulic shears are designed for powerful, controlled cuts using an upper moving blade and a fixed lower blade. These machines can handle plates of different dimensions and thicknesses with ease.

FAQs

A Crop & Cobble Shear is an important machine that is used in hot rolling mills and handles the ends of the head and tail of rolled products and handles segment cutting. It simplifies the rolling line by removing irregularities quickly without disturbing the product. In simple terms, it ensures that your mill is effectively running when improving the quality of the final product. 

At KN Engineering Works, we create our shears every time to handle a difficult, high-temperature position while delivering a specific, clean cut.

Without effective shearing, rolling mills face downtime, the size and deterioration of irregular product. Crop & Cobble Shear helps maintain the accuracy of the product by streaming unwanted ends and cobbles. This reduces delays, improves yield, and increases the overall efficiency of the plant.

When shears perform well, your mill gives a constant quality output. That is why investing in a reliable shear matters. Our solutions are designed to survive, rolling mills ensure that they are competitive while at least keeping the maintenance and breakdown issues.

Our crop and cobble are designed for both shear performance and durability. They facilitate accurate trimming for tight tolerance, PLC-based automatic control for precise, and DC motors or flywheel-mounted clutch and brake systems operated by brake systems. Each shear is engineered to withstand continuous operations in a high-temperature environment.

Simply put, we focus on practical reliability – so your plant can run smoothly with less stoppage and more consistent results. These characteristics make our shears a reliable option in India and abroad.

While the Crop & Cobble Shear is one of our specialities, we build complete shears and rolling mill equipment. This includes flying shears, cold shears, rotary shears, hot and cold saws, and hydraulic shears – each is designed for different cutting requirements.

With machinery, we provide consultation, plant design, installation and after-sales service. With two modern features in Faridabad and Bangalore, and with projects in the whole of India, Bangladesh, Nepal, the Middle East and Africa, we both provide quality products and long-term support.

Working with us means working with a team that considers rolling mills inside. With two decades of experience, ISO 9001: 2015 certification, and a customer-first approach, we go beyond supplying machines. We hear, adapt and ensure that the solution fits your plant completely.

Each shear passes through a strict quality check before dispatch, ensuring that it performs firmly. Our global customers trust us for a reason-we care about keeping their mills productive, skilled and ready for the future.
