Drill Machine
Voortman offers regularly scheduled training courses for all Voortman Ocean equipment in their Bradley Illinois facility. These courses are available for both new operators and retraining existing operators. Participants who have completed this course return to the shop motivated, highly trained and eager to improve their productivity. Call us for more information and pricing.
Voortman builds machines specifically for GSS Machinery to meet our demanding specifications. GSS Machinery specifically targets the small to medium fabricator whereas Voortman targets the larger fabricators. Voortman has been building machines for GSS Machinery for more than 10 years, and GSS Machinery is Voortman largest customer worldwide.
We believe that, at this time, based upon the prices from different suppliers, the customer would be better off with high-quality Ocean Penetrator turn drill bits as well as a quality sharpener.
The CNC Beam Drill Line may be programmed by hand at the machine, or remotely using the Peddimat Software. This software is included with the AVENGER. You can install it on as many computers as you want in your office. It is the same program that is on the machine.
These drop in serrated grippers can be used to secure base plates and flat bar profiles, as well as angle and other profiles that may have rounded edges which want to push away at the datum line.
This adaptor for the Morse Taper Morse Taper drill bits allows you to use standard parallel shank bits when drilling smaller diameters. It can drill a maximum diameter of 12mm and a minimum diameter of 3/64'' (1mm). Maximum drill diameter is 12mm, minimum diameter is 3/64'' (1mm).
Automatic Edge Finder – The edge finder is or can be utilized manually (Jogging Method & Screen Buttons), programmatically (M & G codes), or fully automatic routine (dedicated program). This option sets offsets & program rotation to match the orientation & location on the cutting table.
Remote assistance cannot diagnose every problem. Frequently, mechanical issues and questions that require the attention of a human eye are still being addressed. Voortman machines come with high-definition web cameras and software. This allows Voortman employees the opportunity to see the installation in action without leaving the office. This webcam is invaluable in countries where English might not be an option or situations in which it may be difficult to communicate effectively.
A CNC drill line is useless if it does not position a fabricator for success in the steel fabrication industry. The Advantage-2 can process technical programs quickly and with intelligence. Each drilling axis is equipped with three five-station tool changers. They can drill, mill countersink tap, tap, and scribe. You can also equip this drill line with a Signoscript underside Scriber or Signomat Part Stamping Unit. Even after blasting, painting, and galvanizing, part information can be retained. Minimizing shop errors? Check. Check. High torque drilling axes feature a thicker, more aggressive cut that removes more chips with every rotation. This drill line can chew through beams and tube, channel, angle, tube, and flat bars. Advantage-2 has a processing window that measures 44 inches in width and 18 inches high.
We have been developing solutions and machines for steel fabricators over 50 years. As a solution to decreasing labor supply and rising labor costs, we are focusing on automation. Our goal is to reduce production costs and increase profit margins. Voortman CNC Beam Drilling lines can provide the best in productivity, accuracy, and reliability. Our CNC Beam Drill Lines incorporate many functions, such as drilling and milling, marking and countersinking. They also allow for thread-tapping and other tasks to improve productivity and optimize workflow. Voortman provides a comprehensive range of Beam Drill Lines for all types of production.
Beam drills are essential tools for medium-sized to large-sized structural fabricators. Beam drill lines can accurately drill holes in various steel profiles of different lengths and with CNC controlled programming. These machines remove the need to manually draw or lay out the positions. Instead, the machine produces the hole using a mag drill punch, plasma, or punch. This laborious process can take many hours and may require several employees. A beam drillline eliminates the need to manually plan and avoids any errors.
Peddimat is incredibly simple and intuitive, and takes less than an hour to learn, even if you have never worked on a computer in your life.
If a CNC drill machine doesn't allow a fabricator the ability to compete at the highest level in steel fabrication, what good is it? The Advantage-2 is able to process technical programming with intelligence and speed. Each drill axis comes equipped with three five station tool changers. These can be used to drill, mill and countersink as well as tap and scribe. Signoscript underside or Signomat part stamping units can be added to this drill line. You can keep your part information even after you have finished painting, blasting, or galvanizing. Minimizing shop errors? Check. The Advantage-2's carbide tooling allows for more aggressive drilling and more holes per hour than any other drill line. The high torque drilling tools have a more aggressive cut, removing more chips each rotation. This drill line is capable of cutting through beams, channels, angles, tubes, and even flat bars. Advantage-2 can handle any profile with a processing window of 44inches wide by 18inches high.
Theoretically, a beam could be any length provided it was properly designed. The issue is one of practicality. Although it's theoretically possible to have an RC beam 16m long, it is very difficult to have a reinforcement bars that are longer than 12m.
ECC works with a finite field. This means that even though elliptical curvatures are relatively new, the majority of the math required to calculate a discrete logarithm across the field is older. Most of the algorithms used in ECC are minor variations of factoring algorithms.
Channels, or C-beams, are used when the flat back side of the web is mounted to another flat surface. This allows for maximum contact. Sometimes they are welded back-to-back to create a non-standard I beam.
The dimensions of the steel bars required for beam and column are determined by the design structure, load on it, and span between two supports. For beam and column, the size of steel bars is generally 12mm to 25mm.
The shorter beam will therefore be stronger for the same load. To compare beam strengths as the length changes, it takes more than the section modulus.
