It's a 5-axis CNC robotic automated oxy-fuel cutting beam cutter that is very economical. This machine can be used to cut beams as well as channels, angles, plates, rectangular tubes, and channels. This profile cutter machine can easily cut any kind of material you can think up. It not only handles, but also cuts to length.
Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. offers the assurance of robotic profiling and coping that are unsurpassed in the industry. Our high definition plasma technology system, capable of cutting through a wide array of metal profiles for structural steel and other metal pieces, is backed by our company.
The PCR42 plasma cutter can be used by your operator in just a few days. The interface is simple and easy to use. Mac-Tech is always available for assistance if you need it.
AFD CNC Flange and Plate Drilling Machines can drill up to 680 mm and 1/4" through 3-1/8". Material is driven on the table using balls. It is then fixed with hydraulic clamping jaws. Material is positioned to the desired coordinates for drilling/marking/tapping by CNC program and then operation starts.
Software included in this group includes X-Steel. SDS/2. Tekla Structures. StruCAD. DetailCAD. SteelCAD. ProSteel 3-D. All three-dimensional modeling programs export the DSTV format that can be easily imported into Voortman.
Our factory-trained service tech will spend 5 days on the job installing your machine, calibrating and retraining your operators. This will allow for more hands-on operation as well as troubleshooting and diagnostic training.
AFD CNC Flange and Plate Drilling Machine are capable of drilling 6 to 80mm and 1/4" to 3-1/8" thicknesses within their own area. Material is mounted on the table by using balls and fixed with hydraulic clamping jaws. Material is positioned to the desired coordinates for drilling/marking/tapping by CNC program and then operation starts.
Cost is the main reason. The plasma cutting of steel produces a lot of carcinogenic dust which MUST be collected in a dust extraction filtering system. This, along with the additional cost to fully enclose the machine in order to evacuate dust, raises the price far beyond what the average fabricator will pay for a beam coping system.
And most importantly, several large fabricators have upgraded from a 3-torch machine to an Voortman. That will tell you everything!
The Voortman beam coping machine is a very simple machine with very few moving parts, making maintenance and parts exceptionally affordable. The Voortman was designed specifically to be used throughout the world and thus uses only components from major manufacturers, most of which can be sourced in the local market. Voortman keeps all parts on hand for next day delivery in the USA. In most of our overseas countries we offer local service and support.
It is an amazingly economical 5-axis CNC robotic oxy-fuel cutting beam coper that will enable you to make any type of cut on beams, channels, angels, plates, and rectangular tubes. Literally anything that you can draw, can be cut by this superbly versatile profile cutting machine. Not only does it cope, but it cuts to length too!
Continuous steel beams are made up of multiple beams, which are joined and supported by beams. This creates a strong, but flexible component for large-scale structures. Continuous beams can be used for bridges, multi-story buildings and complex roof structures.
The correct answer is "B." 0.2 mm.
Fixed connections, pinned and roller connections are the most popular types of support in beams and structures that connect to their foundation. You can see any of these supports at any point along the length of a structural component.
Prices for steel I-beams range from $6 to $20 per ft. Materials only. ... Steel I beams price list by length. Steel I-Beam Length Prices 10 feet 60 - $180 20ft $120 – $360 30ft $180 – $540 40ft $240 – $720
Commonly, a coping saw can be used to cut appropriate designs for joining two surfaces. This tiny hand tool can make precise cuts to create inside joints that are professional-quality.
