N Size Drill
I truly believe that without the support provided by the staff and personnel at GSS Machinery we would not be performing in the steel fabrication markets that we now enviably find ourselves competing in..”
Not only will the CNC Beam Drill Line process beams and columns, but it also easily processes all steel profiles including channel, angle, flat bar, base plates, RHS, square, and round profiles.
Z-Reader Probe-The Z-Reader Probe is a device that maps the location of the surface. It can be programmed or manually controlled. It can be disabled while cutting, and it can be pulled out of harm's reach. It can be activated to verify the surface at each pierce prior to cutting, or to drive surface mapping for the entire part before cutting begins. It is used to initialize or zero the device to the desired surface and then tracks or accumulates the difference between that zeroing effort.
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).
The Advantage-2 is powered by 25 HP (18.5kW) Siemens spindle motors. It has 3 drill spindles each with 5-station tool changers. This drilling technology is extremely efficient and allows for maximum operating time and excellent drill hole quality.
CNC Beam Drill Lines are the most cost-effective CNC beam drill lines on the current market. This allows fabricators to win more work, and makes more margin.
The Franklin HD145 (3) spindle CNC drill, with 44-inch width capacity. The HD-145 handles beams up to 750 lbs per foot. The hi-performance spindle design provides drilling capabilities up to 2,000 RPM. This rigid design provides extremely aggressive feed rates up to 300 surface feet per minute. The Franklin HD145 can be provided with several material handling packages from 300 lbs per foot, to 750 lbs per foot.
The CNC Beam Drill Line can be operated easily and Avenger operators are the ones who lay out the floor. You don't need any prior computer knowledge and are given full training at the time of installation.
Peddimat can be mastered in less than an hour, even if it is the first time you have used a computer.
Voortman has developed today's CNC beam standard drill line using tried-and-true technology. Advantage-2 processes 150 ton of steel per workweek with the most efficient drilling/milling, scribing/taping, and countersinking operations.
Voortman built the CNC Beam Drill Line only for GSS Machinery. Voortman manages the installation, warranty, service and maintenance of the CNC Beam Drill Line. Voortman is the service provider. GSS Machinery is available to help if needed.
Auto Standoff - This is a surface standoff, and should not be confused in any way with vector standoff using 5-axis mode. Auto stand-off will adjust vertically according to the angle of "A" Axis. There are five (5) axis that are considered during calculations. The machine can be controlled manually using buttons on its screen to make the vector standoff change.
5-Axis Renishaw Calibration – The calibration unit is a Renishaw model APCA45 with a modified spherical stylus. The device has a retractable cover and air purge to clear debris & dust during the activation process. It mounts to a swing arm controlled by a pneumatic rotary, so it is out of the way during regular operation and swings into the calibration position for calibration only.
Continuous production? Check. You can check. The ability to process a profile in record time with triple-axis drilling and milling is possible thanks to the use of three axes. High-speed Siemens spindle motors of 25 horsepower provide industry-leading hole penetration speeds. Additionally, each drilling axis employs ball screw feed positioning. The drill line boasts an advanced clamping system specifically designed to reduce vibrations. Extreme accuracy? Check.
As a minimum beam diameter, all structural engineers recommend a 12mm dia bar.
SHA is an 'one-way encryption algorithm. This means that you cannot reach the input text without having output (results of algorithm). RSA is a 'two way' encryption decryption algorithm. This means that input data (raw text) can be accessed by having output (ciphered, or encoded text).
CNC drilling is a process where a rotating cutter cuts holes in a stationary piece of workpiece. These holes are usually made to accept machine screws or bolts. They can also be used to enhance the aesthetics of the component.
An I beam is stronger than a cylindrical tube for beams with equal weight and depth. This is because the I beam contains more material close to the extremities.
Wood Products Historically we have restricted hole sizes in Microllam (r) LVL and Parallam (r) PSL. Members 7.25'' or deeper can use a round hole of 2'' diameter for TimberStrand(r).
