[Daniel Celio]

I just graduated in Mechanical Engineer and got a Job that I dont know nothing about.
Please, someone helpme identify what is the purpose os these machines.

I don't know if here are the right place to post. but I need help.

Isn't there someone at your job that can tell you?

I'm supposed to know

Did someone take off the nameplates with the manufacturer's name and model number and the contact information for the company that made them?

What does the other side of the first one look like?
The second is simply a horizontal band saw for cutting material.

@3DDave - No, they still have. I searched the nameplates on the internet. but of these machines there were only resellers. and since they are from a few years ago, it's hard to find.

Guillotine, sometimes used to remove fingers.

It is a capital mistake to theorise before one has data. Insensibly one begins to twist facts to suit theories, instead of theories to suit facts. (Sherlock Holmes - A Scandal in Bohemia.)

Yup, looks like a shear to me. used for cutting sheet metal and anything softer.

Weird - the point of nameplates would be for us to help you. There is a lot of information about SUMEC machines found by Google.

Those plates also tell a minimum electrical connection information, such as this one does:

Try to find a technical school and take some night courses before you are severely injured by equipment that isn't immediately identifiable to you from close examination.

The second machine, according to Google Lens, looks to be possibly a bandsaw.

Nevertheless, if these are at your place of employment, you should be able to inspect them and figure out what they are.

You have a shear and a bandsaw.

Just ask. Ignorance is fixable. You will come across as a humble person, ready to learn.

Ask each and every machine operator what the machine is, basic operating functions, and watch how they use it. Ask what they like and dislike about the machine such as ease of use, reliability, product quality, and production speed. As a mechanical engineer who solves machine condition problems, I rely a lot on observations and discussion with the operators. Do not believe averything that is said by operators, maintenance staff, and management. Sometimes you can learn more around the machines than sittig in the office!

I agree that the machines "look like" a shear and a band saw.

Looks more like the OP works in an auction house, since neither of the equipment pictured look to be in normal operating configuration, i.e., task chairs butted up against the back end of the shear.

Hello,

The first machine looks like a shear. The first photo is the back side showing the back gauge where you can set the amount being cut from a sheet. The shear is powered, but from the photo I can't tell if it's mechanical or hydraulic. That loop of metal hanging on the back side of the shear and touching the blue chair could be an old rusty band saw blade.


The second machine looks like a horizontal band saw with rollers to support the work being cut.

No dirt or metal debris indicate the machines are not in production operation. The chairs are not part of the machine!

Thank you all guys.I am a teacher and supervisor in the area of ​​metal mechanics at a professional education school in Brazil.
These machines are in the lab I'm responsible for.

 

[IRstuff]

Looks like you have a lot of cleaning and organization to do, and a lot of catching up to do, as well.

You better make sure you have the proper AND SAFE operating instructions before you try to do anything - ESPECIALLY WITH STUDENTS INVOLVED!!!! I know from experience - they can get really creative in their stupidity! I have mentored a high school robotics team for the last several years. I am continually amazed at how little they know, and how dangerous they can be. We have had several near misses, like when a table saw grabs a piece of wood and fires it across the room. Or like when a students' sleeve gets caught in a drill press. Or like when a student actually breaks a bench vice trying to squeeze a penny flat. Or like when someone trips over the cord for a power tool and jerks it out of the users' hands. Or like ...
