Beam Coping Machine Head
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.
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.
Our office hours run from 8am to 5pm Eastern Time. We are experts in all aspects of the machine. We welcome technical support calls anytime during our business hours.
This versatile profile cutter can cut virtually any shape you can imagine. It can also be used to cut lengths!
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!
As customers often bring a few pieces of steel with holes or layout marks, we train the operator to use Peddimat.
Voortman's inside service technicians don't often need to be present at your machine in order to fix a problem. Voortman technicians can operate your control using an internet connection. Voortman equipment uses the Powerful Windows(r), Siemens control that allows for this capability. It also provides superior diagnostics via Windows(r).
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.

This machine is available for immediate delivery. Extra cost can be charged for training and installation by a factory-trained technician.
Coping, Latin for "coping", is the covering or capping of a wall. A wedge or splayed coping slopes in one direction. A saddle coping slopes to the opposite side of a central highpoint.
To prevent rainwater entering the structure below, copings and caps are used to cover the tops of freestanding walls and parapets made from masonry. You can make them from either profiled metal like lead, aluminium or zinc or special bricks and masonry.
The ideal thickness for aluminum copings According to architectural fabrication manuals, a thickness of 2.00mm is recommended for coping widths of up to 550mm and 3.00mm for those that exceed 650mm. These are only guidelines.
Commonly, a coping saw can be used to cut appropriate designs for joining two surfaces. This tiny hand tool can make precise cuts to create inside joints that are professional-quality.
Continuous: A beam that extends over more than two supports. Cantilever: A beam that projects from one end and is fixed at the other. The support on the opposite end of the beam is not needed. We will examine some classic beam loading examples. This simple beam has two supports and a centre load.
