Punching: The machine can punch holes of various sizes and shapes in metal sheets, plates, and other materials. It uses a hydraulic ram and a punch and die set to create holes.

Shearing: Hydraulic ironworkers can cut through metal sheets and plates with ease. They have a shear station equipped with blades that can cut flat bars, angle iron, round bars, and other metal profiles.

Notching: This function allows for creating notches in metal pieces, which is often necessary for fitting and joining different parts together.

Bending (Optional): Some hydraulic ironworkers come with a bending station, where metal sheets can be bent into various shapes and angles.

Bar Cutting: Hydraulic ironworkers can also be used to cut round bars, square bars, and other metal bars to specific lengths.

Angle Cutting: The machine can cut angles in metal pieces, creating various angular cuts as needed.

Channel and I-Beam Cutting: For structural metalwork, ironworkers can cut channels and I-beams to specific lengths or angles.

V-Notching: This function is used to create V-shaped notches in metal pieces, often for joints or structural connections.
