Drilling
A 4-axis layout attachment eliminates human error from manual layout methods. The part information can still be used after blasting, painting, or galvanizing.
A 4-axis layout marking attachment eliminates human error in manual layout methods. Part information is retained even after painting, blasting and galvanizing.
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.
GSS Machinery's magnetic brush (and broom) help remove chips from the machine as well as sweep up chips from floor.
Voortman’s 24 hour tech support center can resolve 90% of your support issues. An extensive network of 50+ Voortman personnel is stationed across North and South America.
Voortman’s Roller Feed Measuring system surpasses industry standards in roller measurement technology. The key to accurate measurements is not allowing for any production hesitations. Even when there are material variations, accuracy must be maintained.
We have used more than 1,000 CNC Drill Line and Angle Lines in the world. We have found that even an experienced operator who has never programmed before can use the machine efficiently in less than half an day.
Voortman inside technicians are often able to resolve any problem remotely. Voortman technicians can access your machine via an internet connection. Voortman equipment has a powerful Windows(r-based Siemens control which allows this capability and offers superior diagnostics through Windows(r).
CNC Drill Lines are among the most economical CNC beam drill lines available. They allow fabricators to win more work and earn more margin.
Yes. There are many CNC Drill Lines outside. Weather protection must be provided for the control panel as well as the mobile platform. For photos of many of our outdoor installations, please contact us.
Voortman's CNC Beam Drill Lines are often included in a combined Drill Saw Line or even in larger fully automated integrated production lines, also referred to as Multi System Integration. Find out more about it below!
Auto Standoff is currently defined as surface-stand-off. This should not be confused for vector standoff with 5-axis. The current auto stand off is based on a moving surface. It will adjust vertically based the angle at the "A" Axis. You can perform the vector change even if the machine is not running with the help of buttons on screen.
CNC Drill Line will not only drill columns and beams but can also process all types of steel profiles such as channel, angle, flat bars, base plates and RHS square and circular profiles.
Z-Reader Probe-- The Z-Reader Probe can be used to locate the surface. It can be used to programmatically or manually. This option is not activated while cutting and is easily retracted. It can be used to verify the surface of each pierce, or to map the entire surface before cutting begins. It starts by initializing or zeroing the device to a surface at the start of a program. After that, it accumulates or tracks any difference.
C-channel frames are stronger against rust.
These nodes can connect a beam to a column or a wall. A beam that supports multiple beams is called the main beam. Some of its nodes can be non-supporting. These can be, for example, the nodes on which secondary beams rest.
ECDSA is more secure than RSA due to its complexity. ECDSA offers the same level security as RSA, but with a shorter key length.
To ensure the beam's strength, pipes must pass through the middle section of beams. Additional strengthening of the beams can be done with steel reinforcement, concrete depth or additional strengthening where pipes enter the beams.
Girders are long horizontal beams that serve as primary support for buildings. All other beams are connected to them, creating the "skeleton" of the structure. This is the easiest way to see the difference. Girders are large beams. All girders can be considered beams. However, not all beams can be called girders.
