Citing a demand from its customers for a shear that provides large-scale results on a smaller-class machine, Genesis Attachments, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of high-quality hydraulic attachments for use in demolition, scrap processing, reconstruction, utility and waste handling operations, has introduced its line of XP MAXX mobile shears. According to the manufacturer, the Genesis GXP 660 MAXX and GXP 990 MAXX shears use innovative design and manufacturing technology to provide power usually found in a shear that is one to two sizes larger.
By, in essence, overbuilding the shear body, Genesis was able to install a much larger cylinder and increase the stroke of that cylinder. XP MAXX shears are ideal for processors whose operations include heavy structural steel processing and piercing, but for whom a larger excavator is either cost-prohibitive or otherwise not feasible. They can avoid the loss of mobility, increased fuel costs and capital expense of a larger class excavator, yet still see a significant increase in production, Genesis says.
The MAXX model shear lineup includes two sizes: the GXP 660 MAXX for use on excavators in the 70 000 lb. class, and the GXP 990 MAXX for use with 100 000 lb. excavators. Both models also feature Genesis’€™ patented bolt-on piercing tip, dual guide blades, and four identical, four-way indexable blades to minimise maintenance-related downtime.
