Who uses the PTS 650 S and for what
The Bernardo PTS 650 S shear is a manual lever shear for straight cutting of thin sheet metal without a motor. With a cutting length of 650 mm and a capacity of up to 1.25 mm, it is sized for artisanal roofers and sheet metal workers. Its manual operation makes it independent of electricity – ideal for use on construction sites or in workshops without adequate power supply. The 0–500 mm back gauge ensures repeatable cuts of the same width without measuring each time.
Who is the Bernardo PTS 650 S for
| Profile | Compatibility | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Passionate hobbyist | Suitable | Manual, no electricity: practical for occasional use on thin sheet metal. |
| Artisanal roofer / sheet metal worker | Ideal | Straight cut over 650 mm up to 1.25 mm: the simple and reliable solution for sheet metal work without investing in motorized shears. |
| Industrial production | Not suitable | For continuous, high-volume production, consider MTE/MTR motorized shears. |
Not suitable for: sheet metal over 1.25 mm; high-volume series production; curved cuts (sheet metal scissors are needed).

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum thickness for aluminum and stainless steel?
The nominal thickness of 1.25 mm refers to S235 steel (400 N/mm²). For aluminum, the capacity increases by 30–50% (approx. 1.8 mm). For AISI 304 stainless steel (600 N/mm²), the capacity decreases by 30–40% (approx. 0.8 mm).
Can the PTS 650 S also cut copper and brass sheets?
Yes. Copper and brass have lower resistance than S235 steel: the effective capacity for copper is similar to aluminum (approx. 1.8 mm). Check for specific alloys.
Are the blades replaceable?
Yes. The cutting blades are replaceable when worn or damaged. Original Bernardo replacement blades are available with 3–5 working days shipping.
Does it require a special foundation or installation?
The shear must be fixed to a stable work surface. Most models are fixed to the floor or a bench with standard bolts. It does not require a special foundation.
What is the difference between the PTS 650 S and the MTE/MTR motorized shears?
The PTS 650 S is manual: no motor, no power supply, suitable for limited artisanal production. MTE and MTR motorized shears have a motor and NC controller, higher cutting capacities, and speeds up to 31 strokes/min for continuous industrial production. The cost of MTE/MTR is significantly higher.
