Voortman offers regularly scheduled training courses for all Voortman Ocean equipment in their Bradley Illinois facility. These courses are available for both new operators and retraining existing operators. Participants who have completed this course return to the shop motivated, highly trained and eager to improve their productivity. Call us for more information and pricing.

The CNC Drill Line has two options: it can be programmed in-house or at work using the Peddimat programming software. This software comes as part of the AVENGER. The unlimited license allows you to install it on as many machines in your workplace as you'd like. It's the same software found on your machine.

Voortman’s 24 hour tech support center can resolve 90% of your support issues. An extensive network of 50+ Voortman personnel is stationed across North and South America.

The Franklin HD145(3) spindle CNC drill is available in 44-inch width. The HD-145 can carry beams upto 750 lbs/foot. Hi-performance spindles provide drilling capabilities of up to 2,000 rpm. This rigid design delivers extremely high feed rates of up 300 surface feet per hour. You can have the Franklin HD145 equipped with various material handling packages, from 300 lbs per ft to 750lbs per ft.

Advantage-2 carbide drills use electronic ball screw drive spindle motion and automatic tool change technology. The combination of Voortman's legendary build quality and mechanical design gives the best combination of strength, agility, and strength.

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.

Voortman is the man behind today's CNC beam drilling line standard. He has used time-tested technology. Advantage-2 processes 150 tonnes of steel per week on average. It is the most efficient way to drill, mill, tap, and countersink.

Renishaw Calibration 5 Axis - The calibrator is a Renishaw model APCA45 equipped with a modified spherical stilus. The device includes a retractable lid and an air purge to remove debris and dust during activation. It mounts to the swing arm, which is controlled by the pneumatic rotary.

Powered by 25 HP (18.5 kW) Siemens spindle motors, the Advantage-2 is outfitted with 3 drill spindles, each equipped with 5-station tool changers. This powerful drilling technology allows for maximized operating time and drill hole quality.

We believe that for now, based on current pricing from the various suppliers, the customer is better off with good quality Ocean Penetrator twist drill bits and a good quality sharpener.

".. Although the machine is targeted at structural fabricators, I found it to be very useful for drilling truck frames. This machine is very accurate and repeatable, which has made it easy to put together a truck frame. Avenger drills a series of channels for one truck within two hours. It takes 16 hours to do the same thing manually. This machine has dramatically increased our productivity, profitability, and efficiency !.."

GSS Machinery staff and personnel have been a tremendous support to me. Without them, I believe we wouldn't be in the position we find ourselves in in the steel fabricating markets.

Steel Industry

Voortman is the only manufacturer of the CNC Drill Line for GSS Machinery. Voortman takes care of all aspects of the CNC Drill Line's installation, warranty, maintenance and repair. Voortman provides the service, but GSS Machinery can always be reached if required.

Programming of the CNC Drill Line 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 and the operator merely selects the part to be processed and hits the Cycle Start button.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.

C-channel frames are stronger against rust.

Use a slow speed to drill. The slower a bit spins the more hot it becomes. And heat dulls bits quickly. It is a good idea for drill bits to be used at a slow speed when drilling through metal. Drill bits for hard metals such as steel and larger diameters require slower speeds.

These nodes can connect a beam to a column or a wall. A beam that supports multiple beams is called the main beam. Some of its nodes can be non-supporting. These can be, for example, the nodes on which secondary beams rest.

Codes do not specify beam dimensions. These requirements are related to reinforced concrete beams' width-depth ratio. As a general rule, it is best to use depths that are two-and-a-half to three times the beam width. It is more economical to use narrower sections for long-span beams.
