Used Haco Hydraulic Guillotine Shears for Sale 26

Haco is a Belgian manufacturer of sheet metal fabrication machinery — hydraulic guillotine shears, press brakes, ironworkers, and laser cutters — with a strong European market presence and growing global distribution.

On the used market, Haco hydraulic guillotine shears are accessible mid-tier machines that combine good build quality and competitive pricing. Exapro listings cover HSL workshop shears (4-13 mm capacity), HSLX extended-capacity machines for heavier work, and TS series with advanced CNC controls. Pricing is typically 20-30% below LVD or Darley equivalents of similar capacity, making Haco a sensible choice for shops with moderate utilisation patterns. Compare current Haco listings to evaluate condition and value.

Key inspection points before buying include blade condition (Haco uses standard blade dimensions, so replacements are widely available), hydraulic system integrity, back gauge accuracy, and hold-down clamp uniform engagement. Modern Haco listings include Delem or Cybelec CNC back gauges; older machines may have simpler NC controls.

Buying a used Haco hydraulic guillotine shear: what to check

Before purchasing any used hydraulic guillotine shear, thorough inspection is essential. For Haco shears specifically, blade condition is the first checkpoint — a fresh blade set costs €2,500-€6,000 depending on length. Check blade edges for wear, chips, and uneven wear patterns. The hydraulic system condition is the next priority: smooth cylinder operation under load, consistent pressure, and no leaks at seal points.

Verify the back gauge tracks accurately across full travel and that hold-down clamps engage uniformly across the bed length. Run test cuts in representative material if possible. For machines older than 15 years, factor in possible electrical panel upgrades and hydraulic refurbishment.

Transport for Haco shears requires flatbed handling — workshop machines weigh 3-8 tonnes while production-class HSLX models can exceed 10 tonnes. Confirm machine weight, dimensions, and electrical specifications (typically 400V three-phase). On Exapro, each Haco listing provides specifications, photos, and seller contact for your evaluation. Compare multiple Haco listings to find the right combination of cutting capacity, condition, and value for your fabrication work.
