I Beam Vs W Beam

“..the time the Liberator saves us for cutting the beam itself, you add on top of that the time it saves us fitting 2 pieces together so accurately that no trimming or additional work is required. In regard to welding, we are not filling gaps anymore. We save time in both the fitting and welding of the structure. Beyond that the amount of grey hair I have saved from having the Liberator do my work, as far as I am concerned is PRICELESS!”

This safety mechanism ensures long tip and head life as well as significantly increasing up time to avoid costly torch tip changeovers and repairs.

The Robotic Coping/Profiling system is an equivalent of an automated fabrication process. It can handle the following processes: beam drill lines, angle lines, hydraulic punches and ironworkers. This is just one way to make your fabrication processes more efficient.

Structural metal is used in almost all types of structures, including buildings and bridges. Of course, the designs of these structures may vary widely. Steel beams should be made to exacting specifications in order for them to match the blueprints. Steel beams have to be cut to size or thickness frequently.

Voortman manufactures machines exclusively for Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. so that they can meet our stringent specifications. Voortman focuses on the larger fabricators. Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. focuses on small to medium size fabricators. Voortman is a machine builder for Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. and Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. has become Voortman’s largest client worldwide.

Importing files directly from steel detailing software is preferable. This eliminates the need for additional steps and eliminates any potential errors in data capture. In this regard, there are two distinct groups:

"..the Liberator cuts the beam in half, and it also fits 2 pieces together with such precision that no trimming is necessary. We are no longer filling in gaps when welding. We can save both time and effort when fitting and welding the structure. The Liberator has saved me a lot of grey hair, which is priceless!

The APC 1200 is an upgraded version of the APC 1200. The combination plasma and oxy fuel cutting features are available with both torches mounted on pivoting heads. The computers will control the flipping of one to the other in less than a second, so you don't have to do any manual work. To maximize efficiency, the machine is operated primarily using the Plasma. The machine is preprogrammed so that it automatically switches to the Oxy Fuel if the material thickness exceeds the Plasma's cutting capabilities. The upgraded unit includes laser probing to adjust the height automatically.
