A CNC beam-coping machine with one torch is a 5-axis machine which uses just one torch to perform all the coping. One torch cuts a beam by cutting at the web first, and then moves on to the blades. It moves sequentially from the web to each of the flanges. The 5-axis torch allows you to perform complex tasks in a virtually unlimited number of positions and directions. The 5-axis torch is capable of performing double miter/bevel cutting on both web and flange - something that multi-torch system are unable do.
With Voortman, a profile of the cope can be uploaded to the CNC software from the built-in shape library or CAD. The user-friendly interface will then allow you to manually calibrate cutting tolerances, nest parts for coping, and track robotic cutting paths before the work begins so that any mistakes can be avoided. Then, the material simply needs to be loaded and the start button pressed for Voortman to begin coping with perfection.
