Why are steel beams coped

Beam Coping Machine Benefits

The Voortman CNC Beam Coper is very simple to operate and most of our operators were the men doing layout on the floor. No prior computer knowledge is necessary, and full training is provided at the time of the installation.

Voortman uses the long torchnozzle of a special torch to reach the insides of Flanges. We offer a range of sizes to suit the thickness of your material. You can specify which gas is being used with torch tips: Acetylene (Natural Gas), MAPP, Propane and others.

AKYAPAK once more offers an innovative solution to steel construction. High speed and high processing with AFDs up at 1000x1500 mm. (40"x60") Materials

Another problem is that when cutting thicker portions of a piece, even using light wide-flange beams (e.g. the radius at intersection of the web, and the flange), it is not uncommon for the flame back to blow away, which can damage the plasma head.

The Voortman comes with a 12-month parts and labor warranty. Factory service technicians will repair or replace your Voortman Beam Coping Machine if it breaks down within the warranty period.

Voortman can import DXF file and can use them for processing 3-D shapes, provided that the steel is detailed according specific rules. These rules may not be applicable to your current detailing and may require some adjustments. This process is not as smooth as the 3-D modeling software.

Voortman’s Roller Feed Measuring Technology exceeds the industry standard. It is important to maintain accurate measurements without hesitation during production. Even though there may be slight deviations in the material, accuracy should not be compromised.

“.. in the two and a half years we have had an Voortman, the efficiency and quality of the preparation procedures for our product has been drastically increased. Coping and weld prep of the past was very time consuming. Manually laying out and burning left a lot to be desired. With the Liberator, the burns are much cleaner, reducing grind time dramatically. The Liberator is a compact machine that delivers big results. All in all, Ocean has provided an opportunity to save time and energy, which equals out to saving money and our customers get a quality product.”

A box beam made from aluminum or acrylics will last longer than an I-Beam. It is stronger and more solid in construction.

Price of 30 ft lvl beam: The average cost/price of LVL is $3-$12 per linear foot. For 30 ft. lvl beam price, 30x3 = $90, 30x12 = $360. This means that 30 ft. lVL beam, Laminated veneer lumber, or Engineered beam costs between $50 and $200 for materials, or between $90 and $360 for installation.

Preheat the I-beam using the torch flame. To start cutting, grab the torch trigger and hold it. Holding the torch trigger, point it at the outer edge to cut along the line. You can stop if necessary and then continue where you left off.

Your coping should be visible enough to make tricks easier but not too much that it blocks your flow. We found that drilling the coping into a parallel-running 2x4 support directly behind it was the best way to fasten it.
