Drill Spindles
The Franklin HD145 (3) drill spindle CNC spindle, 44-inch wide. The HD-145 can support beams upto 775 lbs per ft. The hi-performance spindle design offers drilling speeds up to 2,200 RPM. This rigid design can deliver extremely high feed rates upto 300 feet per second. The Franklin HD145 is available with many material handling packages ranging in weight from 300 lbs/foot to 750.
The CNC Drill Line not only lays out and drills all your holes in any steel profile in a fraction of the time it takes you to do it manually with a mag drill, but it also lays out the marks for all your welded attachments, virtually eliminating the need for a tape measure.
"..We have drilled approximately 25,000 hole since we purchased our CNC Drill Line just four months ago. It used take us about 5 minutes each to drill and lay out each hole. It now takes us around. 30 seconds per hole... an 1875 man hour savings in four months. That is $84,375 at our shop. As you can see, this machine will be fully paid off in less then one year. It is not only faster than our production, but it also allows us to free up floor space for other jobs.
After the Voortman technician has completed calibrating and installing your machine, he will spend some time with your operators to teach them our simple but thorough training program. The following training will be provided to your operators:
Voortman's 24 Hour Tech Support Center can resolve 90% of support issues. However, there are 50+ Voortman field personnel stationed all over North and South America, Europe and Africa.
The Advantage-2 is powered via 25 HP (18.5kW), Siemens spindlemotors. It features 3 drill spindles that are equipped with 5-station tool changing stations. This powerful drilling technology ensures optimal operating time as well as drill hole quality.
Voortman technicians can often work remotely from their computers to resolve any problems you might have. Voortman technicians only need an internet connection to be able to use your control like he were there with you. Voortman equipment is equipped with a Powerful Windows (r)-based Siemens control, which provides superior diagnostics using a Windows(r), based platform.
Since 1950, we have been designing machines and solutions to help you as a steel fabricator. Automation is our response to ever-decreasing labor availability and rising labor cost. We can help you lower production costs and improve your margins. Voortman's CNC Beam Drill line can guarantee the highest productivity, accuracy, reliability and quality. Our CNC Beam Drill Lines include many functions, including drilling, milling and marking as well as countersinking, thread tapping, and other functions to optimize productivity and increase automation. Voortman has a wide range of Beam Drill Lines to suit every production and company.
“.. Although this machine is marketed for the Structural fabricators, I knew immediately it would work well for drilling truck frames. The accuracy & repeatability have ensured the assembly without error. The Avenger drills a set of channels for one truck in less than one 2 hours; when we did this manually, it would take 16 hours. This machine has increased our productivity & profitability hands down!..”
The CNC Beam Drill Line has been an immediate hit with the small to medium fabricator fabricating both structural steel and miscellaneous metals. Since it was introduced in 2003 more than 600 CNC Drill Line have been installed around the world, and this amazing machine has changed the lives of many a steel fabricator.
FlexBeam is an innovative machine tool that allows for quick, precise and economically produced steel profiles. This machine provides a cost-effective beam processing solution to small to medium-sized fabricators who are ready to handle larger jobs.
CNC Drill Line is a space-saving beam processing solution. It only takes up 70ft x 9.9ft. This makes it great for fabricators with limited space. CNC Drill Lines can also be placed outside, providing even more space for fabricators.
Voortman offers ongoing training courses on all Voortman Ocean equipment at its Bradley Illinois facility. These courses are both for novice and experienced operators. These courses are designed to help employees leave your shop feeling more motivated, skilled and prepared to take on new tasks. For more information and pricing, please contact us.
CNC Drill Line not only processes beams and columns but can also easily process all steel profile including channel, flat, flat, base plates RHS, square and round.
ECC works with a finite field. This means that even though elliptical curvatures are relatively new, the majority of the math required to calculate a discrete logarithm across the field is older. Most of the algorithms used in ECC are minor variations of factoring algorithms.
This equation calculates the bending normal stress and is commonly known as the flexure formula. The distance from the neutral direction (up is positive) is the y term. The I term refers to the moment of inertia around the neutral axis. The Neutral Axis.

Horizontal Beams are the most commonly used structural members. They are usually horizontal, but they can be oriented in any direction. Beams are large horizontal members which carry floor loads from floors, walls or roofs to columns or foundation walls.
Section modulus (Z) is another property that can be used in beam design. Designing beams is crucially important because it determines the section modulus of the crosssectional shape. It is an indicator of the strength of the beam.
