shear results in a reduction of tensions in the part by up to

20%. This reduces the distortion in your product.

For punches with the same dimensions, the use of beveled

When do I use which shear?

Beveled punches are especially effective when working with
high-tensile and tough materials. The decision for a particular
shear depends on the punching operation involved.
Whisper (Fig. 1) makes sense for the reduction of

punching force especially in the case of large punch

diameters and thick sheets.
Roof (Fig. 2), moreover, neutralizes the transverse forces

which are generated. Because of the evenly distributed

forces the roof shear is particularly suited for the punching
of geometries which are close together. The twisting of
webs, for example, is therefore reduced.
The benefit of shear punches increases as the material
