Difference Between L Beam And T Beam

The basic unit is semi-automatic, with oxy-fuel coping machines. The operator positions and finetunes the workpiece before it is cut. The laser can also be set up automatically to auto-probe and adjust the torch height. The basic unit has powered conveyors. Before cutting, the operator must manually measure and mark X on the feedstock. The optional laser measuring of the feedstock can also be used as an automated measurement system. The interface allows the operator input the material type to which they want to cut. The operator navigates through a variety of options by using the touch screen to see pictorial representations. The computer program includes all dimensions of structural steel AISC. A fully dimensioned deal drawing is displayed to simplify programming, save time and reduce operator input errors. The operator has the ability to modify or override the input. It can also be saved as an additional program, if needed. DSTV exported drawings can also be used to pre-programme your machine. An operator can use the wireless remote control to operate, start, stop and manage the equipment. The wireless remote control allows the operator to easily view the equipment from any angle that is needed to verify and maintain accuracy. Operator marks the material, moves the material in the right position and clamps it hydraulically to ensure that the material is cut correctly. The laser operator aligns the laser to the mark, then begins the process. The torch lightens and pre-heats the material. The operator initiates and finishes the cutting process, as long as he maintains the correct torch height.

Voortman uses an extended torch nozzle to reach inside Flanges. These are available in a variety of sizes, depending on how thick the material is to be cut. The torch tips can also be gas-specific so please specify the type of gas you use: Acetylene or Natural Gas, MAPP or Propane, etc.

Voortman can make the steel beams’ copes cut faster than your layoutman. Voortman CNC Angle Line and Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. CNC Angle Line both brought automation of beams and angles at an affordable price to small-to–medium fabricators. Voortman does the same.

The Voortman can import DXF files and can use them to process 3-D shapes as long as the steel is detailed according to specific rules. Some of these rules might be different to the way you are detailing at the moment and might require some adjustment. This process is not nearly as seamless as the 3-D modeling software solutions above.

The top-of the line coping/profiler makes 3D coping a breeze. These Robotic Coping & Profiling beams are not just reliable, they are also designed to cut saddles, chamlers or slots.

Three torches for simultaneous oxy-fuel cutting create an unmatched combination of speed and efficiency. Capable of miter cutting and beveled weld preparation on the top and bottom flanges, the ABCM-1250 CNC beam coping machine also boasts automatic torch ignition.

Multi-torch or triple torch CNC beam copier machines usually have three torches. Each torch is dedicated for a web or flange. The triple torch machine takes less time to position than the single torch machine. However, the single torch can make a lot more cuts due to the 5-axis movement and versatility of its cutting head. A majority of triple torch machines are 3-4 times more expensive than our single torch CNC beam-coping machine.

This machine is available immediately for delivery and is stored in storage. For an additional charge, a factory-trained technician is available for installation and operator training.
