Improve production rates
Easy-to-follow instructions pace the entire shearing operation, regardless of crew experience.
Reduce cutting errors
Information loaded from computer-generated instructions or scanned from barcoded tags eliminates the potential for erroneous entry by the operator.
Load tag info instantly
Connected hand-scanner loads tag information into the console’s memory by reading linear or 2D bar codes printed on production bundle tags.
Optimize on the fly
Automatically calculate cutting combinations right at the shearline; eliminates the need to plan entire production runs in advance.
The aSa Opto-Shear Console drives the entire shearing operation electronically by completely automating shearline processes — gauging, bin selection, and roller motion — and managing the shop crew with easy-to-follow instructions — shake-out requirements, tagging, pocket blocking, and crane call messages — timed for maximum productivity. aSa’s controller interfaces with nearly any shearline as an original or replacement console. aSa’s controller interfaces with nearly any shearline as an original or replacement console
