Beam Coping Machine Drum
Not every problem can be diagnosed with remote assistance. Mechanical issues or questions that require the human eye are still common. Voortman machines are shipped with high definition web cameras and software; allowing Voortman employees to directly experience the activity at the installation without the need to leave the office. The webcam has significant value in foreign countries or in situations where language might be a barrier to effectively communicate the issue.
Coping is a process used in structural steel and plate fabrication to make relief cuts in a beam to allow it to fit with other parts of the framework. Although you can coping with a torch handheld, professional structural steel fabricators use a beam-coping machine to increase precision and speed up their production. Voortman's industry-leading CNC beam-coping machine offers a unique advantage to those who know it.
It is obviously preferable to import files directly from your steel detailing software because it eliminates an unnecessary step and also eliminates possible incorrect data capture. There are two separate and distinct camps in this respect:
Even for operators who have never used a computer or CNC, programming the Voortman CNC Beam Coping Machine can be very easy and intuitive.

The Voortman comes supplied with a 12-month parts & labor on-site warranty. Factory service technicians will make sure your Voortman Beam Coping Machine is up and running in no time.
Programming the CNC Beam Coping Machine is extremely simple, even if done manually. The machine programming software is Peddimat. Most operators will be able to program most of the parts in no more than an hour. Of course practice makes perfect. The best method to program the machine is by import parts directly from an CAD drawing. These files can then be imported directly to the machine. Sometimes the operator will need to edit a part program to ensure smooth cuts. In these cases, he simply selects the part that he wants to process and hits the Cycle Star button.

It is much easier to import files directly from your steel detailing tool. In this regard there are two distinct camps.
Notching or coping is the act of joining two pieces of tubing together. This is a function of angles determined by the location of the tube.
Support for beam splices should be provided by some type of post or structural column. A foot-ing should be provided that the column or post rests on. The beams should be attached to the post using an approved metal connector. The beams must be supported by at most 1 in.
Fret Saws are also known as Jeweler's Saws. They are smaller than Coping Saws. They have shorter blades and are designed for maneuverability and quick turns. They can be used for metal work and woodwork if the blade is right.
Weiten identified four types of coping strategies. They are: problem-focused (adaptive cognitive), appraisal-focused (adaptive behavioral), emotion focused (emotion-focused) and occupation-focused. Billings and Moos also added avoidance coping to the list of emotion-focused coping.
Problem-based coping is one type of coping skill. Emotion-based coping is another. Knowing the differences between them can help you choose the right coping strategy. When you are trying to change your circumstances, such as by eliminating a stressful person from your life, problem-based coping can be helpful.
