Voortman uses a torch nozzle specially made for him. It will usually last between 3 and 6 months, depending on how hot the machine is run. The torch nozzle can be bent almost impossible due to the breakaway head that redirects the torchnozzle. The heat from the gases that pass through the nozzle eventually causes the nozzles to wear out. For $75 each tip, you can get replacement torch tips.

Coping is a process used in structural steel and plate fabrication to make relief cuts in a beam to allow it to fit with other parts of the framework. Although you can coping with a torch handheld, professional structural steel fabricators use a beam-coping machine to increase precision and speed up their production. Voortman's industry-leading CNC beam-coping machine offers a unique advantage to those who know it.

This versatile profile cutter can cut virtually any shape you can imagine. It can also be used to cut lengths!

Steel Structure

The high quality and speed of plasma cutting heads make them very popular for cutting stainless steel. Plasma heads can't be moved close enough to the flange due to their size. This makes it impossible to use many types of copes normally required in beams.

The Voortman beam and coping machine has very few moving components, which makes maintenance easy and affordable. Voortman has been designed for worldwide use and only uses parts from top manufacturers. The majority of components can be obtained locally. Voortman always has spare parts available for next-day delivery in the USA. We offer local service and support in almost all of our overseas destinations.

Is a coping saw the same as a jigsaw

To move the steel through the Voortman's machine, the Voortman needs roller conveyors. Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. provides a customized modular system for the machine. The modular system, called the Ocean Eliminator, features in-feed or out-feed powered roller conveyors as well as powered lift/carry cross transfers.

“..the time the Liberator saves us for cutting the beam itself, you add on top of that the time it saves us fitting 2 pieces together so accurately that no trimming or additional work is required. In regard to welding, we are not filling gaps anymore. We save time in both the fitting and welding of the structure. Beyond that the amount of grey hair I have saved from having the Liberator do my work, as far as I am concerned is PRICELESS!”

To remove more wood from the back, angle the coping saw 30 degrees. Pro tip: Trimmings that have been cut with coping cuts can often leave thin, pointed tips. To prevent them from splintering, support the tips with your finger while you file, cut, or sand.

Coping is an architectural term that refers to the top course masonry used to "cape" an exterior wall's top. Coping can be sloped or curved to divert water away.

Fret Saws are also known as Jeweler's Saws. They are smaller than Coping Saws. They have shorter blades and are designed for maneuverability and quick turns. They can be used for metal work and woodwork if the blade is right.
