Ocean Liberator
The hardened hydraulic jaws have a piston to help fix material and prevent any faults. AFD Flange and Plate Drilling Machines can drill, tab and mill, and mark with scribing and dot. (optional).
Voortman uses long torch nozzles to reach inside Flanges. These sizes can be ordered depending on the thickness of the material being cut. These torch tips can also have a gas specific designation so please let us understand what gas you are using.
AKYAPAK offers an innovative solution for the steel construction sector again... High speed and high processing performances with AFDs up to 1000x1500 mm (44"x60") materials.
Programming of the CNC Beam Coping Machine is very simple even when done manually. The machine programming software is Peddimat and most operators can learn how to program most parts in less than an hour. Of course practice makes perfect. However the best way to program the machine is to import parts directly from a CAD drawing preferably done in some 3-D modeling software such as Tekla Structures, SDS/2, ProSteel 3D, StruMis etc. These files import directly into the machine. In some cases the operator might need to edit the part program to create a lead out to ensure smooth cutting and then he merely selects the part to be processed and hits the Cycle Start button.
Your detailer will then provide you with a DWG/PLT/PDF file that you can use to print your drawings or plot them. The detailer will also provide you with the NC1 and NC2 files you will use to import into your computer. Voortman has the DSTV Import function.
Another problem is the fact that it is common for flames to blow back when cutting thicker pieces of a part.
Voortman was built to fulfill all your structural steel or plate fabrication needs. Voortman offers the following advanced features to help you refine your production.
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.
If there are any concerns about the standards of our Robotic profiling and coping machine, we can assure that it has passed all vital fabrication tests such as hardness, surface textures, beam flange hole quality, bolt holes sizing, positioning, and perpendicularity. As per usual, we have made the Voortman CNC coping/profiler machine available from our stock. This machine is of exceptional quality and has outstanding capabilities.
A single torch CNC beam coping machine is a 5-axis machine that uses only one torch to do all the coping. When coping a beam, the single torch will start cutting at the web and then move on to the flanges. It moves from the web to each flange in sequence. The 5-axis torch is able to move in an almost infinite number of directions and positions, allowing the most complex of copes. The 5-axis torch and will accomplish double miter/bevel cuts on both flange and web – something that multi-torch systems are unable to do.
Programming the Voortman CNC Beam Coping Machine takes little to no time and is intuitive for even those who don't have any previous experience with computers or CNC.
Contact Voortman today to improve your beam coping abilities and take your business to the next level.
The process of making relief cuts to the beam in order for it to fit into other parts of a framework is called coping. A handheld torch can be used to coping, but professional structural steel fabricators prefer to use a beam coping device to speed up production and improve precision. Voortman is an industry-leading CNC beam cutter that gives you a significant advantage over your competitors.

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.
Maladaptive coping strategies These are also known as maladaptivecoping mechanisms. Imagine the following stressful situation. We can clearly see that adaptive and maladaptive coping mechanisms are quite different.
Reinforced concrete beams can be made by embedding steel bars along the lengths of structural members to increase their tensile strength. These beams are the most popular.
Manufacturers limit beam lengths to 60 feet due to transport issues. Others can make beams up to 80 feet long. The longest supported span using LVL is 80 feet. It is normal for continuous LVL spans to be between 20'-30'.
Continuous: A beam that extends over more than two supports. Cantilever: A beam that projects from one end and is fixed at the other. The support on the opposite end of the beam is not needed. We will examine some classic beam loading examples. This simple beam has two supports and a centre load.
