Cnc Pipe Cutting

Cnc Beam Coping Machine

Voortman is able to cut steel beams into copes much faster than your layoutman. Voortman's CNC Beam Drill Line, and the Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. CNC Angle Line introduced affordable automation of angles and beams to small-to mid-sized fabricators. The Voortman brings automated beam coping to shops otherwise unimaginable.

Our office hours range from 8am - 5pm Eastern Time. We are very familiar with the machine, and welcome any technical support calls during normal business hours.

Beam Coping

Voortman makes it easy to upload a model of the cope to the CNC program from either the builtin shape library (CAD) or the shape library. The interface is user-friendly and allows you to manually calibrate cutting tolerances, nest pieces for coping, track robotic cutting paths, and even avoid mistakes. Voortman is ready to get to work. All that's required is to load the material and press the start button.

The basic unit is a semi-automatic, oxy-fuel coping machine. The operator positions the workpiece, finetunes it, starts the cut and adjusts the torch height while cutting. (There is an automated option for a laser to auto probe and set the torch height.) The basic unit comes with powered conveyors where the operator manually measures and marks the X length on the feed stock prior to cutting. (There is also an optional automated measuring system via Laser measuring of the feed stock.) The interface allows the operator to input material type to be cut. The operator scrolls through a list of options via pictorial representations on the computer touch screen. The computer is programmed with all the AISC structural steel dimensions. A fully dimensioned cope drawing is displayed simplifying programing, saving time and minimizing operator input error. The operator can override and customize the input as needed, and it can be stored as a new program, if desired. The machine can also be pre-programmed from the office through DSTV exported drawings. There is a wireless remote control that the operator uses to start, stop and operate the equipment. This allows the Operator to freely walk around viewing from any angle needed to verify operations and maintain accuracy. The operator makes his mark on the material, moves the material into position, and hydraulically clamps the material to be cut into place. The operator lines the laser to the mark and begins the cycle. The torch ignites, pre-heating the material. The operator manually initiates the cutting process and finishes the cut as he maintains the proper torch height.

Beam Fabrication

The triple torch CNC beam cutting machines have multiple torch and three torch torches. Each torch has a dedicated web or flange. Although the positioning time is shorter with the triple torch machine then with the single torch, the single torch is able to do much more cuts than the existing triple torch models due to the flexibility of the 5-axis movement for the cutting head. The average cost of a triple torch machine is 3-4x that of our single torch CNC beam, coping machine.

Voortman designs machines to meet our strict specifications. Voortman focuses on larger fabricators while Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. is a machine manufacturer that targets small-medium fabricators. Voortman has been building machines in Gulf States Saw & Machine Co.'s shop for over 10 years. Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. is Voortman's biggest customer.

Multiple axis positioning makes it possible to cut top and bottom sides simultaneously. With pivoting torches, flange beveling is easy for weld preparation.

The basic unit comprises a semiautomatic, oxyfuel-fuel coping system. The operator positions the piece, fine tunes it, cuts the material, and adjusts the torch height. A laser can be used to automatically set the torch height and probe the material. The basic unit also comes with powered conveyors. These allow the operator the ability to manually measure the length of the feedstock and mark it before cutting. There is an optional automated measuring device that uses laser to measure the feed stock. The operator can input the material to be cut through the interface. Operator scrolls through a number of options via pictorial representations displayed on the computer touch screen. The computer is programmed to display all the dimensions of AISC structural Steel. A fully dimensioned, dimensional cope drawing is available to facilitate programming and save time. Operators have the option to override or customize input and they can save it as a new programming program, if required. DSTV exported diagrams can also be used to program the machine. The wireless remote control allows the operator to turn on, off and operate the equipment. The operator can freely view the equipment at any angle that is necessary to verify operation and maintain accuracy. The operator marks the material, then moves it to a suitable position. Finally, he clamps the material hydraulically so that it can be cut. The operator aligns his laser to the mark and starts the cycle. The torch turns on, preheating and heating the material. The operator initiates the process of cutting and finishes it as long the torch height is maintained.

Beam Coping Machine Rg

In the structural steel and plate fabrication industry, coping refers to the process of making relief cuts in the beam so that it will fit with other components of the framework. While coping can be done with a handheld torch, a lot of professional structural steel fabricators will use a beam coping machine to improve precision and speed up production. In fact, those who are in the know about Voortman have a distinct advantage over competitors thanks to the remarkable benefits this industry-leading CNC beam coping machine delivers.

This safety feature ensures long head and tip life, as well as greatly increasing the time it takes to prevent costly torch tip repairs and changeovers.

Ocean Machinery

The Voortman CNC Beam Coper is designed specifically for fabricators and general job shops that need to cope or notch steel profiles of all types. Consider the following questions and determine if this machine fits your needs:

Robotic Coping or Profiling is equivalent to an optimized fabrication procedure that has been designed to ease the lives of metalwork and fabricators. The system can operate various processes such as beam drill lines, angles lines, band saws, hydraulic punches, and ironworkers. This is an easy way to transform your fabrication process into a hundred.

Beam Coping Details

This safety mechanism ensures long tip and head life as well as significantly increasing up time to avoid costly torch tip changeovers and repairs.

The Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. CNC Beam Coping Machine, which is the best-selling beam coper in the market, is the result a strong collaboration with Voortman (the number one structural steel fabricating machine manufacturer).

Frequently Asked Questions

Coping refers to the material used for a pool wall or edge. There are several options available: precast concrete, poured-in concrete, tile and natural stone (pavers or flagstone). ).

Reinforced concrete beams can be made by embedding steel bars along the lengths of structural members to increase their tensile strength. These beams are the most popular.

Because of their shape, I beams resist vibration, yielding, bending and reflection. I beams can span nearly 100 feet and are lightweight. Buyers must inform the fabricator of the dimensions required for their project when ordering I beams.

A channel for rainwater is the primary purpose of coping. The coping prevents rainwater from seeping into walls by allowing it to drip down the walls. It also gives the wall an artistic look.

Oscillating Power Tool. Coping is the best choice for any corners in the room. A coping saw could be used to accomplish the task, but an oscillating power instrument could make it easier.
