Key Features
-
Nothing Left to Prove
The G Series is the flagship of CI’s shear family. Top to bottom, these machines are time-tested metal-chopping beasts.
-
Really Flippin’ Fast
The unchanged mechanical design system inside the G Series is optimized to produce high cycle speeds.
-
Rigid Frame
Part of what makes the G Series so accurate is its heavy-duty construction. Precision leadscrews with micro-adjustment nuts don’t hurt, either.
-
Reliability Meets Simplicity
You get what you pay for in metal fabrication. In the G Series, you get a machine that will happily produce for you for the next 30 to 40 and beyond.
