Portable Beam Coping Machine
There are two options for upgrading the APC 1200, which is a fully upgraded version of the basic unit. Combination plasma and oxyfuel cutting are possible with both torches mounted onto a pivoting head. Both can be switched between each other by computer control, and they will do so in one second. To maximize efficiency, the Plasma is used to operate the machine. It has been preprogrammed to switch to Oxy Fuel automatically when material thickness exceeds its cutting capabilities. This upgraded unit is standard with laser probing for height adjustment.
The triple torch design of the ABCM-1250 CNC beam coping machine allows for the cutting of two flanges simultaneously. While flange thins are performed on both top and bottom flanges at the same time, weld prep is generated concurrently, keeping operating costs at a minimum. Without tedious torch probing processes, the ABCM-1250 oxy-fuel coper allows for more near flange cutting.
The ABCM-1250 CNC beam cutter machine has a triple torch design, which allows for simultaneous cutting of two of your flanges. Flange thins are performed simultaneously on the top and bottom sides of both flanges. Additionally, weld prep can be generated concurrently, which helps to reduce operating costs. The ABCM-1250 oxygen-fuel coper eliminates the need to torch probe, allowing for faster near-flange cutting.
Our Robotic Coping & Profiling system can be used to automate the fabrication processes of metalwork manufacturers and fabricators. It can work with various angles, beam drill lines and hydraulic punches. This is a simple way to increase the efficiency of your fabrication process from zero to 100!
Voortman Technical Support Office can be reached 24 hours a days and is available to answer any questions you may have, no matter how complex or simple.
Voortman and Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. are committed to providing affordable, reliable CNC solutions that work for you. The Voortman has been built to the highest safety standards with state-of-the-art components.
Voortman has been built for Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. only. Voortman takes care of installation, warranty work and service. Voortman provides the service, but Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. is available to assist if required.
The Voortman CNC Angle Drill Line and Voortman Clipper CNC Angle Line provided affordable automation of angles and beams to small-to medium fabricators. The Voortman liberator brings automated beam coping to shops that would otherwise not have considered it.
AutoCAD is an architectural program that exports flat 2-D pieces of information to plate processing machines. It does not export files for 3-D forms such as beams and angles. AutoCAD exports DWG files and DXF file, which are ideal for plates.
Voortman is your partner and can cut down your production times by as much as 80%. It's a remarkable return on investment. The industry-leading beam-coping machine comes with unlimited free support and turnkey installation. We can also provide training in any part of the U.S.
AutoCAD is an architectural software that can export flat 2-D parts to plate processing machines. The only problem is its inability to export files for 3D shapes, such as beams, channels, angles, and so on. AutoCAD can export DWG files as well as DXF files. This is great for plates.
Our factory-trained service tech will spend 5 days on the job installing your machine, calibrating and retraining your operators. This will allow for more hands-on operation as well as troubleshooting and diagnostic training.
The PCR42 robotic plasma cutter does beam coping and notches, holes, and weld preps. It also splits beams and scribes as well as marks on all four sides of H-beams channels angles, HSS, plates, and H-beams.
Of course, the most important reason is price. High-carcinogenic dust from plasma cutting must be collected in a dust extraction filtering unit. The price of fully enclosing the machine to evacuate dust is much higher than what a typical fabricator can afford for a beam handling solution.
I-Beam. . . . This is the ultimate beam profile. It is extremely strong in the vertical direction and has an equal response to all other forces. It is the strongest profile in strength to weight (vertical), making it an excellent DIY beam profile for Cranes and main beams for long and large trailers.
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.
To increase your beam's bending capability, you will need to increase the second moment (I) if your beam design is controlled by yielding in bend (not lateral-torsional or plate buckling). This is usually done by attaching additional plates to your beam, often onto the flanges.
To remove more wood from the back, angle the coping saw 30 degrees. Pro tip: Trimmings that have been cut with coping cuts can often leave thin, pointed tips. To prevent them from splintering, support the tips with your finger while you file, cut, or sand. Pro tip: Keep your eyes on the outside of the line.
Coping is an architectural term that refers to the top course masonry used to "cape" an exterior wall's top. Coping can be sloped or curved to divert water away.
