"..We have drilled approximately 25,000 hole since we purchased our CNC Drill Line just four months ago. It used take us about 5 minutes each to drill and lay out each hole. It now takes us around. 30 seconds per hole... an 1875 man hour savings in four months. That is $84,375 at our shop. As you can see, this machine will be fully paid off in less then one year. It is not only faster than our production, but it also allows us to free up floor space for other jobs.
Voortman’s roller feed measurement system exceeds industry standard. It is important to maintain accurate measurements without hesitation during production. Even though there may be slight deviations in the material, accuracy should not be compromised.
Cnc Beam Drill Line FeedVoortman offers ongoing training courses on all Voortman Ocean equipment at its Bradley Illinois facility. These courses are both for novice and experienced operators. These courses are designed to help employees leave your shop feeling more motivated, skilled and prepared to take on new tasks. For more information and pricing, please contact us.
MultMaster is an extension to the Roller Feed measurement systems. It can perform small-sized cuts that would otherwise need manual positioning. This accessory automates the processing of short residual sections on a Voortman drill-saw tandem system, allowing for quick and easy material processing.
CNC Drill Line was designed for fabricators and general job shop personnel who need to drill holes in all kinds of steel profiles. These questions will help you determine if the machine is right for you.
"..In our efforts to satisfy customer demands and increase productivity, we installed a new beam drilling line. This has resulted in a lower labor cost and faster turnaround times that have always helped us land high quality jobs.
We have successfully installed over 1000 CNC Drill Lines and Angle Lines all around the world. It has been our experience that an average operator who has never programmed a machine before can get up to 50% efficiency on it in less than half a day.
The Advantage-2 CNC beam drilling machine is ideal for tandem installations with any Voortman automatic sawing system.
Not every problem can be diagnosed with remote assistance. Mechanical issues or questions that require the human eye are still common. Voortman machines are shipped with high definition web cameras and software; allowing Voortman employees to directly experience the activity at the installation without the need to leave the office. The webcam has significant value in foreign countries or in situations where language might be a barrier to effectively communicate the issue.
GSS Machinery has provided us with the best support possible in steel fabrication markets, which is something I am proud to say.
We always train your operator how to run the machine using Peddimat as you are often going to have the situation where a customer arrives with a couple of pieces of steel that need holes or layout marks and you want to be able to produce them quickly without bothering your detailing staff who might be busy on a larger job.
Renishaw Calibration 5-Axis - The calibration unit for the Renishaw model APCA45 is equipped with a modified spherical pencil. The activation process is completed with a retractable covering and an air purge. It attaches on a swing arm controlled via a pneumatic Rotary.
We have been creating machines and solutions for steel fabricators for 50 years. As a result of the decreasing ability to find qualified labor and rising labor costs we focus on automation. This will allow you to lower your production costs and increase margins. Voortman's CNC Beam Drill Lines will ensure that you have the highest level of productivity, accuracy, and reliability. Our CNC Beam Drill Lines combine many functions such as drilling, marking, countersinking and thread-tapping to maximize productivity and automate your workflow. Voortman offers a complete line of Beam Drill Lines that can be used for any type of production.
Programming the CNC Drill Line is simple, even when done manually. Peddimat is the machine programming program and most operators can learn to program most parts in less that an hour. Of course practice makes perfect. But, the best way is to program the machine directly from a 3D CAD drawing. This should be done in software such as StruMis, ProSteel 3D and SDS/2. These files can be imported directly to the machine. After selecting the part to process, the operator clicks on the Cycle Start Button.
Round tubes are the strongest by weight. It is more resistant to bending and twisting than rectangular or square tubing with the same chemical composition and dimensions.
For small buildings, the distance between two reinforced columns is between 3-4m and 6-9m. Larger facilities that require large columns and lots of free space will have to be at least 6-9m. A distance of 5m is acceptable for ordinary structures. The maximum span is 7.5, while the minimum is 2.5m.
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 when carrying the same load. To compare beam strengths, it is necessary to take into account more than the section modulus.
T Beam's disadvantages: Because the beam slab is monolithic (rigid), its resistance to lateral shear forces becomes very weak. (cracks develops quickly). This is why T beams are used for high-rise buildings in earthquake-prone areas.
