Steel Fabricator
Let's see how Twist Drill Bits are compared to Insert Drill Bits in real life. One example will be shown - 13/16 inch (22mm), the most frequently drilled hole size.
We have installed more than a thousand CNC Beam Drill Line and angle lines throughout the world and we have found that the average operator, who has never before programmed a machine before, can become efficient on the machine in less than 1/2 day.
The ability to mill quickly speeds up project completion. With the Advantage-2 user-friendly Raptor 3DCAD/CAM program, it is possible to quickly program parts. Directly access the 3D platform to view, modify and export information. Advantage-2 drills are known for their scribing capabilities, the ability of milling slots and large lifting holes, and they also have the ability to trace. This is what really sets this machine apart. You can create layout lines, piece marks, and central points with the scribing. This flexibility has allowed us to use the scribing when we need it and make our own decisions.
An attachment that marks 4-axis locations eliminates human error during manual layout. Even after painting blasting or galvanizing, the part information is still retained.
We have installed over a thousand CNC Beam Drill Lines and Angle Lines around the globe and have found that even a novice programmer can be proficient on the machine in less time than half an hour.
These drop-in, serrated grippers are used to secure flat bars, base plates, angles, and other profiles with rounded edges.
There are two options when it comes to CNC machinery. One is a Vertical Machining center and one is a CNC router. You can use both pieces of equipment for different reasons. Which one should I choose?
".. This machine is designed for Structural fabricators. But I knew it would work well for drilling trucks frames. The assembly was flawless due to the machine's repeatability and accuracy. Avenger drills one channel for a truck in just two hours. We would have taken 16 hours if it was done manually. The machine has increased our productivity AND profitability !.."
Let's examine the real world fabrication situation and compare Insert Drill Bits with Twist Drill Bits. We'll only look at one example: 13/16 inches (22mm) is the most widely drilled hole.
Even if you are programming the CNC Beam Drill Line manually, it is easy to program. Peddimat machine programming software can be used and most operators will learn how to program most of the parts in under an hour. Of course practice makes perfect. It is best to program the machine by importing parts directly from a 3-D modeling program such as ProSteel 3D, StruMis, Tekla Structures, SDS/2 or StruMis. These files are imported directly into your machine. Once you have selected the part, hit the Cycle Start button.
Automatic Edge Finder – The edge finder can be used manually (Jogging method & Screen Buttons), programmatically, or fully automated (dedicated programme). This option adjusts offsets and program rotation to match orientation and location on the cutting board.
Voortman’s CNC Beam Drill Lines often come in combination with a Drill Saw Line or larger fully automated integrated production line, commonly referred to as Multi System Integration. You can find out more information about it here!
GSS Machinery is often asked by customers which drill bits they should use: insert bits or twist drill bits. We want to make sure that our customers get the lowest possible cost per hole. This will allow them to be more competitive and profit. It is vital that customers fully understand the Insert Drill Bit (Spade Drill Bit) advantages.
GSS Machinery will provide you with as many options as you need when drilling with your CNC Beam Drill Line.
This can be avoided by using a well-designed concrete beam or increasing concrete's compression strength by adding steel reinforcement to the compression side or by increasing the beam geometry.
It is considered a girder if it is the main structural support made up of smaller beams. The Code does not specify the dimensions that will distinguish a beam and girder.
American Standard S-Beam, a type I-beam, is resistant to bending and shear loads. It is used in construction, shipbuilding, as well as other industries. An S-beam is similar to an I-beam but has tapered flanges which slope away from its inside surface.
Direct push technology is often called DPT. It uses the static weight combined with a hydraulic wrench to advance instrumentation or tooling through the subsurface. The drill cuttings cannot be removed from the hole unlike rotary.
Drill Lines Wire Rope Bright drill lines are made from a multi-threaded, twisty wire rope. It is specially designed for drilling rigs as well as hoisting and lowering the drill pipes through a wellbore. As it is constantly in motion, the wire rope construction is very durable and resists abrasion.
