Durma is a Turkish manufacturer of sheet metal fabrication machinery founded in 1956 in Bursa. The brand has grown into one of the largest Turkish exporters of sheet metal equipment, with strong distribution across European, North American, and Middle Eastern markets.

On the used market, Durma hydraulic guillotine shears offer accessible pricing combined with modern features. Exapro listings cover the SBT swing-beam series (workshop and production class), MS series for enhanced rigidity, and VS variable-rake shears for material optimisation on heavier capacities. Most Durma listings from 2010 onwards include modern CNC back gauges with multi-position programming. Pricing is typically 30-45% below comparable Belgian, Dutch, or German machines. Compare current Durma listings to identify good-value purchases.

Key inspection points before buying include hydraulic system condition (primary value driver on Durma machines), blade condition, back gauge accuracy across full travel, hold-down clamp engagement, and CNC control functionality. For machines older than 12 years, verify electrical panel components and PLC condition.

Buying a used Durma hydraulic guillotine shear: what to check

Before purchasing any used hydraulic guillotine shear, thorough inspection is essential. For Durma machines specifically, hydraulic system condition is the primary checkpoint. Verify smooth cylinder operation under load, no seal leaks, and consistent pressure across the full stroke. Older Durma shears may show some seal wear requiring refurbishment before serious production use.

Blade condition affects value materially. Replacement blades are available from Turkish and European sources but quality varies — factor in fresh blade cost if the existing blades show significant wear. Test the CNC control operation across all programmed positions. For Durma machines from before 2010, verify PLC and electronic component spare parts availability.

Transport for Durma shears requires flatbed handling. Workshop machines weigh 3-8 tonnes, while heavier VS variable-rake shears can reach 15+ tonnes. Confirm machine dimensions, weight, and electrical specifications (typically 400V three-phase). On Exapro, each Durma listing provides specifications, photos, and seller contact. Compare multiple Durma listings to find the right combination of capacity, condition, and value pricing for your fabrication shop.
