Beam Coping Machine Assembly

The FANUC robotic arm has six axes and can bevel 360 degrees, making short work of any shape or profile needed for coping beams, plates, and even pipes—hydraulic clamps prevent round materials from rotating during processing. This versatility is paired with the superior power of Hypertherm X-Definition plasma.

Voortman CNC Beam coping machine's cuttinghead is an easy, inexpensive oxyfuel head. It utilizes oxygen as well as any fuel of your choosing, including propylene (acetylene), natural gas, and propane. These gases are cheap and readily available at your welding supplier. Welders experienced in hand torch cutting will easily set up the flow rates for the Oxy-Fuel as they are accustomed to.

The Voortman is built exclusively for Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. by Voortman. Voortman handles the installation, warranty and service work on the Voortman. And while Voortman is the service provider, Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. is always there to get involved should the need arise.

Most importantly, many large fabricators have upgraded their 3-torch machines to a Voortman. This should tell you everything.

What are the advantages of a coping saw

What are the advantages of a coping saw

Professional fabricators must be able to manage economic volatility in order to maintain a profitable business. Lean manufacturing is a common approach for structural steel fabrication companies to deal with economic storms. This allows them to keep their operating costs low and still reach their production goals. The key to maintaining costs is lean manufacturing.

Because we are particular about making fabrication tasks seamless and efficient, we have here this Robotic coping and profiling beam that is designed to process angle bars, channels, square tubes, but als pipes, T Bars, plates and bulbs as well. With any of our Coping and profiling Robot, the possibilities of functions on your profiles/pipe cuts are truly limitless as it is an efficient tooling system unmatched in terms of the quality of its outputs. These outputs can be H, I and T beams, U and L channels respectively.

All of your 3D coping and profiling is made easier with us using our top of the range coping and profiling robot. These Robotic Coping and Profiling beams are not only reliable but are designed for capacities which include cutting saddles, chamlers and slots respectively.

“..the time the Liberator saves us for cutting the beam itself, you add on top of that the time it saves us fitting 2 pieces together so accurately that no trimming or additional work is required. In regard to welding, we are not filling gaps anymore. We save time in both the fitting and welding of the structure. Beyond that the amount of grey hair I have saved from having the Liberator do my work, as far as I am concerned is PRICELESS!”

Why do coping saws cut on the pull stroke

Voortman allows you to upload a profile of your cope from either the built-in shape library, or CAD into the CNC software. You can then manually calibrate the cutting tolerances, nest parts to cope, and track robotic cutting routes before work starts. Voortman can then begin to work with perfection by simply loading the material and pressing the start button.

Voortman can make the steel beams’ copes cut faster than your layoutman. Voortman CNC Angle Line and Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. CNC Angle Line both brought automation of beams and angles at an affordable price to small-to–medium fabricators. Voortman does the same.

Voortman can do almost all kinds of structural steel fabrication. From shaping beams, plate to coping relieves and custom profiles. The CNC beam coping machines can be used to replace drill lines and band saws as well as layout and marking stations. Voortman is only one-man-operable. Voortman is a better choice for quality work, quicker turnarounds, and less waste.

Beam Coping Machine Knitting

Copping is an industry term that refers to making relief cuts in the beam in order to ensure it fits with the other parts of the framework. You can do coping using a handheld torch but many professional structural steel fabricators will use a beam cutter machine to improve accuracy and speed up production. Voortman-savvy workers have an advantage because of the many benefits that this CNC beam coping machine provides.

The PCR41 combines vision systems, robotics, and plasma torch technology. This innovative design offers you the best value, speed and precision that a robotic plasma cutter can provide.

Frequently Asked Questions

Miters do all the cutting. The hardest part of mitering is measuring accurately and cutting the molding to the right length. Handsaws are perfect for precise cuts and special techniques.

Cladding is usually made up of thin slabs of about 3cm thickness with a front finish and placed on the walls. Copings come in different thicknesses and are located at the top of walls.

Continuous steel beams are made up of multiple beams, which are joined and supported by beams. This creates a strong, but flexible component for large-scale structures. Continuous beams can be used for bridges, multi-story buildings and complex roof structures.

Scroll saw blades are a bit thinner than coping saw blades and have finer teeth. Scroll saws are more suitable for delicate and intricate work. Coping saws, on the other hand, are slightly better for thicker materials that require less delicacy.

Coping is an architectural term that refers to the top course masonry used to "cape" an exterior wall's top. Coping can be sloped or curved to divert water away.
