Can You Drill Through A Load Bearing Beam

Continuous production? Check. The fabricator's edge does not come from the ability to just handle processes, but in the time it takes to complete them and simultaneously exceed industry standards for quality. Triple axis drilling and milling leads to processing a complete profile in record time. Powered by high-speed 25 horsepower Siemens spindle motors, this strength captures industry-leading hole penetration times and each drilling axis utilizes ball screw feed positioning. With all that power under the hood this drill line wields an advanced clamping system designed specifically to bring vibrations to the bare minimum. Extreme accuracy? Check.

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.

CNC Beam Drill Line will not only drill columns and beams but can also process all types of steel profiles such as channel, angle, flat bars, base plates and RHS square and circular profiles.

Material handling allows for the connection of multiple CNC machines. It keeps material flowing through the shop and allows fabricators expand their business. The Advantage-2 highspeed drill line processes 150 tons steel per 40 hour workweek. The ideal drill for small to large fabrication companies all over the world. All stops. Voortman has made the success for the steel industry his number one priority. Because of this, our support and service is unparalleled. Ask for a demonstration, quote, visit, or phone to learn more about some of the most formidable steel fabrication machinery. Voortman has more strength than steel.

All of our beam drill lines machines are equipped with central lubrication, linear guides, and a tool cooling to ensure smooth operation. There is a four-station tool changer within each coordinate system. This allows the machine to drill and mill, scribe, countersink, or tap as required. Tools can be easily swapped mid-operation. A positive beam positioning arm is attached to the feed conveyor. It allows for more precise positioning of the beam as it moves through the drillline. The rack and pinion system maintains.004" making our steel beam drilllines more accurate than friction roll machines.

The CNC Beam Drill Line is programmed either manually on the machine or by using the Peddimat program. This software is included in the AVENGER. It can be installed on any number of computers in your office that you like. It is the exact same software as the machine, and it is also used on all Voortman CNC fabrication machinery.

Remote assistance cannot diagnose every problem. Frequently, mechanical issues and questions that require the attention of a human eye are still being addressed. Voortman machines come with high-definition web cameras and software. This allows Voortman employees the opportunity to see the installation in action without leaving the office. This webcam is invaluable in countries where English might not be an option or situations in which it may be difficult to communicate effectively.

CNC Beam Drill Line beam processing solutions are extremely efficient. It requires only 70ft x nineft of floor space, making it suitable for small fabricators or those with limited space. There are also many CNC Beam Drill Lines that can be installed outside, which frees up more space for the fabricator.
