Pile Cap Design Using Beam Theory
Voortman can upload a cope profile to the CNC software via the built in shape library or CAD. This user-friendly interface allows you to calibrate cutting tolerances manually, nest parts for the coping and track robotic cutting paths so any errors can be avoided. Voortman can begin perfecting his work by simply loading the material into the computer and pressing the start key.
Voortman uses a special torch nozzle. It can last approximately 3 to 6 months depending upon how hot it is. Because the torchnozzle has a break-away head that directs the torch nozzle it is almost impossible for it to be bent. The heat from gases passing through the torch nozzle eventually wears out the nozzles. Replacement torch tips start at $75 per tip.
