Steel Beam Coping
Voortman makes the Voortman exclusively for Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. Voortman does the installation, warranty and servicing of the Voortman. Voortman acts as the service provider. Gulf States Saw & Machine Co., however, is always available to assist if the need arises.
A 5-axis CNC beam coping machine with a single torch is a machine that only uses one torch for all the coping. The single torch will begin cutting the web, then move to the flanges. The torch moves in a sequence from each flange to the web. The 5-axis torch can move in almost any direction and position, making it possible to complete even the most complicated of tasks. The 5-axis torch can make double miter/bevel cuts in both the flange or web. This is something multi-torch systems cannot do.
These two features are engineered to improve cut precision, and they’re not found on all beam coping machines. However, they are included standard with Voortman.
This safety mechanism increases the time between tip and head wear and prevents costly torch tip changes and repairs.

This machine is available for immediate delivery. Extra cost can be charged for training and installation by a factory-trained technician.
Your detailer then will provide you with a DWG / LTP / PDF file that can be used to print or plot your drawings. He will also provide the NC1 and NC2 files that you can directly import into your machine. Voortman comes standard with the DSTV - Import function.
The basic unit consists of a semi-automatic, oxygen-fuel coping device. Operator positions the workpiece, adjusts the torch height, and fine tunes it. There is also an automated option that allows the laser to probe the area and set its torch height automatically. The basic unit is equipped with powered conveyors. This allows the operator to measure and mark the feedstock's X length before it can be cut. An optional automated measuring system can be added via Laser measurement of the feed stock. The operator can input the type of material to be cut using the interface. The computer touch screen displays a list of choices that the operator can scroll through. The computer has all dimensions for the AISC structural metal. It is possible to program the computer with a fully dimensioned handle drawing. This simplifies the process and reduces errors. The operator can customize and override any input and save it as a new programme, if necessary. The machine can be programmed remotely using DSTV exported drawing. Operators can control the equipment using a wireless remote. This allows the operator to view from any angle necessary to inspect operations and keep accuracy. The operator places his mark on the material, moves it into place, clamps hydraulically the material to be cut, and then checks for accuracy. The laser is aligned by the operator, and the cycle starts. The torch lights, preheating the material. The operator initiates the cutting process by hand and completes the job as long as the torch height remains constant.
Voortman is capable of handling almost any type of structural steel fabrication. This includes shaping beams and plates, coping reliefs, and custom profiles. This state-of the-art CNC beam-coping machine can replace your punches and drill lines, band saws and layout and marking stations. It is also easy to use and requires only one technician to operate. Voortman has many benefits, including faster turnarounds and lower waste.
METEOR-1200 has the ability to cut down on your labor, whether you are drilling or performing on-site assembly. METEOR-1200 has the ability to drill beams and angles, flat sheets, and other suitable geometry. With the state of art control system, you can also mill slots and pockets.
AFD CNC Flange and Plate Drilling Machines are capable of drilling from 6 to 80mm and up to 1/4" to 3-1/8". Material is driven onto the table with balls, and then fixed with hydraulic clamping Jaws. Material is positioned to the desired coordinates for drilling/marking/tapping by CNC program and then operation starts.
Literally anything that you can draw, can be cut by this superbly versatile profile cutting machine. Not only does it cope, but it cuts to length too!
What are some common strategies for coping? Lower your expectations. Ask for help from others. Accept responsibility for your situation. Participate in problem solving. Keep emotionally supportive relationships. You can express your distressing emotions or maintain emotional composure. You can find more items.
1- T beams have a greater second moment inertia than ordinary beams. This means they are more resistant to bending.
Price of 30 ft lvl beam: The average cost/price of LVL is $3-$12 per linear foot. For 30 ft. lvl beam price, 30x3 = $90, 30x12 = $360. This means that 30 ft. lVL beam, Laminated veneer lumber, or Engineered beam costs between $50 and $200 for materials, or between $90 and $360 for installation.
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.
The strength tolerances of the C-beam are lower than those of the I-beam. This results in lighter components. Continue reading if you have never used C-beam profiles. Let us walk you through the basics to help you decide if it is right for you.
