Cnc Drill Line Login
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.
This ability to mill efficiently speeds up project completion. The Advantage-2 user-friendly Raptor 3DCAD/CAM software allows the operator to quickly program parts. The 3D platform allows you to inspect, modify, and export your part information. Advantage-2 drill's greatest advantages are the ability to scribe and mill slots as well as large lifting holes. This machine is truly unique. The scribing allows us to place piece marks, layout lines, and center points. It's been great to have the flexibility to use it whenever we want and to make those decisions.
For 50 years we have been developing machines and solutions for you as a steel fabricator. We focus on automation as a response to the ever-decreasing ability to find quality labor and rising labor costs, so you can lower your overall production costs and increase your margins.You can ensure the utmost productivity, accuracy and reliability with one of Voortman’s CNC Beam Drill lines. Our CNC Beam Drill Lines integrate many functions like drilling, milling, marking, countersinking, thread-tapping and more to increase capacity and automation and optimize your workflow. Due to Voortman's complete range of advanced Beam Drill Lines, there is a suitable Beam Drill Line solution for every type of production or company.
CNC Drill Lines can process beams and columns as well as all steel profiles including channel and angle, flat bar, base plate, RHS and square.
CNC Drill Line is specifically designed for fabricators or general job shops who need to drill holes through steel profiles of all kinds. The following questions can help you decide if this machine is right for your needs.
GSS Machinery's magnetic brush & broom are used to remove chips from the machine, and sweep up chips from floors.
Voortman created Raptor 3DCAD/CAM Software. It allows users to program faster and with greater accuracy. The 3D platform lets you inspect, modify, export and export information directly. This combined with Voortman CNC technology allows for maximum fabrication capacity.
“..Since purchasing our CNC Drill Line about four months ago, we have drilled approximately 25,000 holes. It used to take us approximately 5 minutes to lay out and drill each hole. Now it takes us approx. 30 seconds per hole … a savings of 1875 man hours in 4 months. In our shop that equals about $84,375! As you can see this machine will pay for itself in less than one year. Not only is it speeding up our production, it is freeing up floor space for additional jobs..”
GSS Machinery offers a variety of drilling options to drill with your CNC Drill Line.
The Franklin HD145 (3) drill spindle CNC spindle, 44-inch wide. The HD-145 can support beams upto 775 lbs per ft. The hi-performance spindle design offers drilling speeds up to 2,200 RPM. This rigid design can deliver extremely high feed rates upto 300 feet per second. The Franklin HD145 is available with many material handling packages ranging in weight from 300 lbs/foot to 750.
Remote assistance may not be able to diagnose all issues. There are still many mechanical issues that need to be addressed by a human. Voortman machines can be shipped with high resolution web cameras and software. Voortman staff can see what is happening at the site without needing to leave their offices. The webcam is extremely useful for communicating issues in foreign countries and situations where it might be difficult to speak the right language.
Saw measurement options are available via the Voortman AccuMeasure Roller Feed measurement system. The AccuMeasure allows for complete handling versatility, while maintaining a streamlined CNC solution. Splitting apart a drill and a saw allows neither machine to wait for the other, maximizing production.
Let's look at Twist Drill Bits versus Insert Drill Bits in a real-world fabrication situation. Let's just focus on one example: 13/16" (22mm), which is the most common drilled hole diameter.
In medium- to large-sized structural fabrication shops, beam drill lines are an important tool. Beam drills can drill holes in many steel profiles and at different lengths using CNC-controlled programming. These machines can be used to cut holes in a variety of steel profiles without the need for manual layout or chalking. This tedious process can take several weeks and require multiple workers to complete. The beam drill line eliminates the need for manual layout and all associated errors.
Manufacturers limit beams to 60 feet due to transport issues. Others can make beams up to 80 feet long. The longest supported span using LVL is 80 feet. It is normal for continuous LVL spans to be between 20'-30'.
To replace the drilling wire wrapped around the traveling block and crown block. To prevent fatigue-related drilling line failure, drilling line work is limited and closely monitored.
The strength tolerances of the C-beam are lower than those of the I-beam. This results in lighter components. Continue reading if you have never used C-beam profiles.
Drill blowout can be prevented by attaching a scrap of wood to the backside the piece that you are drilling on. When you drill the whole, wood that would have otherwise "blown out", hits the scrap wood instead and stays in place.
These are the Four Types of Steel Carbon Steels. Only trace amounts of other elements are found in carbon steels, including iron and carbon. ... Alloy Steels. By adding alloying elements such as nickel, copper and chromium to the steel, you can create alloy steels. ... Stainless Steels ... Tool Steels.
