What is CNC drilling

Cnc Beam Drill Line Guide

CNC Beam Drill Line is made for fabricators and other job shops that drill holes in various types of steel profiles. You can determine if this machine meets your needs by answering the following questions.

We have installed over a thousand CNC Beam Drill Lines and Angle Lines around the globe and have found that even a novice programmer can be proficient on the machine in less time than half an hour.

These drop-in serrated grippers help to secure base plates, flat bar, angle and other profiles that might have rounded edges that want to push away from the datum line

We have seen more than 1000 CNC Beam Drill Lines, and angle lines installed all over the world. We found that the average operator can program a machine in half the time, even if they have never programmed one before.

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.

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!

All of our beam drill lines machines are equipped with central lubrication, linear guides, and a tool cooling to ensure smooth operation. There is a four-station tool changer within each coordinate system. This allows the machine to drill and mill, scribe, countersink, or tap as required. Tools can be easily swapped mid-operation. A positive beam positioning arm is attached to the feed conveyor. It allows for more precise positioning of the beam as it moves through the drillline. The rack and pinion system maintains.004" making our steel beam drilllines more accurate than friction roll machines.

Voortman proudly offers technical support 24 hours a day to its global clients. Voortman’s inside service staff have years-long experience in the field or assembly. They also have hands-on knowledge with many machines. Voortman's service personnel are always available to help you with any question that might arise.

Voortman is the man behind today's CNC beam drilling line standard. He has used time-tested technology. Advantage-2 processes 150 tonnes of steel per week on average. It is the most efficient way to drill, mill, tap, and countersink.

Machining

The Franklin HD145 (3) spindle-cNC drill is 44 inches wide. The HD-145 can lift beams of up to 750 lbs per feet. The high-performance spindle design allows drilling speeds of up to 2000 RPM. The rigid design of the spindle allows for very aggressive feed rates, up to 300 ft per minute. There are many material handling options available for the Franklin HD145, from 300 lbs to 750 pounds per foot.

The ability to mill copes speeds up project completion times tremendously. Coupled with the Advantage-2 user-friendly Raptor 3D CAD/CAM software enables the operator to program parts quickly. Inspect, modify and export part information directly within the 3D platform. The biggest advantages of the Advantage-2 drill has been probably the scribing and the ability to mill slots, large lifting holes. I mean this really kind of sets this machine apart. With the scribing we're able to put piece marks and layout lines, center points. I mean having that flexibility to use it when we want to and make that decision has been really great.

Let’s compare Twist Drill Bits and Insert Drill bits in the real life fabrication situation. We will just look at one example – 13/16? (22mm), which is typically the most commonly drilled hole diameter.

CNC Beam Drill Line is 100% hydraulic, making it extremely affordable to maintain and purchase parts. CNC Beam Drill Line is a 100% hydraulic machine that was specifically designed for worldwide use. It uses components from the major manufacturers. Most of these parts can be found in local markets. Voortman stocks all parts for next-day delivery in the USA. We offer support and service in most of our overseas locations.

Frequently Asked Questions

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 span is 2.5m.

The two angled segments get compressed and the horizontal segment is loaded with tension. The resulting tensile strength decreases as the angles get more extreme. A thicker beam will resist the bending force of weight more effectively than a thin beam.

As a minimum beam diameter, all structural engineers recommend a 12mm dia bar.

The Beam L/D Ratio Diagnostic is used to display a plot of the length/diameter of all the beam elements in the model. The optimal L/D ratio to cool channel-related beam elements is 2.5. Solver convergence warnings may be issued if the L/D ratio is significantly lower.

Alloyed high-speed steel (HSS) is used to make drills. This tool steel can reach temperatures up to 600 degrees Celsius, which is possible when cutting e.g. steel and metals. You can use high-speed steel with a higher amount of cobalt (5% or more) as the material hardens.
