How do you cut a beam with a torch

Beam Coping Machine Epitaxy

The PCR42 robotic plasma-cutting machine can do beam coping, notches and holes, weld preps and split beams. Additionally, it can scribe plus marks on all four faces H-beams.

Voortman Technical Support Office is available round the clock and always happy to answer questions, regardless of how simple or difficult.

It is unrivalled in speed and efficiency, thanks to the use of three torch lights for simultaneous Oxy-fuel cutting. The ABCM-1250 CNC beam coping machines are capable of mitering and beveled welding on the top and the bottom flanges.

Dragon's front-position gate and chuck can be easily adjusted, making it simple to set up and load different materials and shapes.

The construction of almost any type of structure can be made from structural steel, such as buildings and bridges. These structures come in many different designs. Steel beams must be precisely fabricated in order to meet blueprint specifications. Steel beams are often cut to the right size and thickness.

Voortman provides technical support 24 hours a day to all of its global clients. Voortman’s inside service staff have many years’ experience in the field or assembly. They also have hands-on knowledge with most machines. Voortman's service personnel are always available to help you with any question that might arise.

For those who may have questions as to the standards of our Robotic coping and profiling machine, we can confidently say that ours has scaled the most vital fabrication tests successfully; hardness, surface texture, beam flange weld access hole quality, bolt hole sizing, positioning and perpendicularity. As always, we have through our stocking made available the Voortman CNC coping and profiling machine, which is designed to an exceptional standard just for you, hence its outstanding capacities.

Plasma heads are very popular for cutting steel, due to the high quality and speed of the cuts. However, due to the size of the plasma cutting head it is not possible to get the head close enough to the flange, and many styles of copes typically required in beams are just not possible with plasma heads.

Beam Coping Machine Management

A 5-axis single torch CNC beam-coping machine is a machine that uses only one torch for all coping. One torch can be used to cope a beam. The torch will cut the web, then move on the flanges. It moves from one end of the web to the other in a sequential fashion. The 5-axis torch can move in an almost unlimited number of directions and places, making it possible for even the most difficult of jobs. The 5-axis torch allows for double miter/bevel cut on both flanges and web, something that multi-torch units are unable to do.

Voortman beam-coping machine comes equipped with long, durable, rigid torch tips that can be used to precisely position the machine within flanges. Additionally, the closed loop system allows for the torchhead's disengagement in the unlikely event that it comes into contact with an obstruction such as slag.

Fabrication

Multiple axis positioning permits top and bottom flanges to be cut simultaneously. Flange beveling for weld prep is easily achieved with pivoting torches to the programmed miter position.

Voortman developed Raptor 3DCAD/CAM Software, which takes CNC innovation to the next level by allowing users to program more quickly and accurately. The 3D platform allows you to inspect, modify, and export part information. This, combined with Voortman CNC technology, means maximum fabricator capacity.

Frequently Asked Questions

The strength tolerances of the C-beam are lower than those of the I-beam. This results in lighter components. Continue reading if you have never used C-beam profiles. Let us walk you through the basics to help you decide if it is right for you.

To increase your beam's bending capability, you will need to increase the second moment (I) if your beam design is controlled by yielding in bend (not lateral-torsional or plate buckling). This is usually done by attaching additional plates to your beam, often onto the flanges.

Both can serve the same purpose. A coping saw can also be used for cutting thin pieces of metal, plastic or wood. A jigsaw is also useful.

There are many ways to think about coping strategies. The five most common types are problem-focused, emotion-focused, social support and religious coping.

When you are assembling a coping-saw, ensure that the teeth point towards the handle. The teeth will cut if you pull the saw rather than pushing it. This will improve accuracy and prevent your saw from breaking. It will also keep your wood from chipping.
