Simple Beam Vs Continuous Beam

Multiple torch or triple torch CNC beam coping machines typically have three torches, and each torch is dedicated to a flange or web. Even though there is less positioning time with the triple torch machine than there is with the single torch machine, the single torch machine can do a lot more cuts than the EXISTING triple torch machines due to the versatility of the 5-axis movement of the cutting head. In addition, most triple torch machines cost 3-4 times more than our single torch CNC beam coping machine.

Voortman and Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. have a shared goal: to provide affordable, reliable CNC solutions which not only work but are also safe for your employees. The Voortman uses only the most advanced components and meets all safety standards.

Hardened hydraulic jaws with piston allow for material fixing to avoid faults. AFD Flange and Plate Drilling Machine enables you to drill, tab and mill as well as mark with scribing and with dot. (optional).

AKYAPAK offers an innovative solution for the steel construction sector again... High speed and high processing performances with AFDs up to 1000x1500 mm (44"x60") materials.

Voortman CNC Beam coping machine's cutting head is an inexpensive and simple oxy-fuel head. It uses oxygen and any fuel you choose, such as propane, acetylene or propylene. These gases are inexpensive and readily available from your welding supplier. Welders who are familiar with torch cutting will be able set the flow rates of the Oxyfuel just like they are used too.

Another issue is that plasma heads can be damaged if the flame blows back when cutting thicker sections of material, even with wide-flange beams.

Owning our Robotic Coping and Profiling system is equivalent to an optimized fabrication process that has been automated specifically to bring ease to fabricators and metalwork manufacturers as it can easily work the processes of angle lines, beam drill lines, hydraulic punches, ironworkers, band saws and coping machines respectively. This is simply a way to take your fabrication processes from zero to a hundred!

The Voortman uses a specially designed torch nozzle that will typically last about 3 – 6 months depending on how hot you run the machine. Because of the break-away head that deflects the torch nozzle, the torch nozzle is almost impossible to bend.However, the nozzles eventually get worn out due to the heat of the gases passing through the nozzle. Replacement torch tips are around $75 per tip.
