Cnc Beam Drill Line Design

We have installed over a thousand CNC 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.

Voortman created today's CNC beam drill standard using time-tested technology. Advantage-2 processes on average 150 tons of steel per week. Advantage-2 uses the most efficient drilling and milling operations, including tapping, tapping, and countersinking.

Material handling allows multiple CNC machines to be connected and maintains material flow through a shop. This allows fabricators the opportunity to continue growing as their business grows. Only the Advantage-2 high-speed drilling line can produce 150 tons of metal per 40-hour working week. This is the perfect drill line for small and large fabricators worldwide. Complete stop. Voortman puts the success and well-being of the steel sector as his top priority. This is why we offer unsurpassed support and service. For more information about the most difficult steel fabrication machinery worldwide, contact us to request a demo. Voortman, we are stronger than any steel.

It is no good having a CNC drilling machine if it doesn’t enable a fabricator compete at the top of the steel fabrication field. Advantage-2 allows you to process technical programmes with speed and intelligence. Each drilling axis includes three five-station tool changers. Each can drill, countersink and tap as well. Signomat underside scribers or part stamping units are also possible to be fitted to this drill-line. Part information is kept even after blasting, painting and galvanizing. Minimizing shop errors? Check. Advantage-2 drills more aggressively and produces more holes than any other line of drilling. High torque drilling axes have thicker, more aggressive cuts that extract more chips with each turn. This drill line can eat through beams as well channel, angle and tube. Advantage-2 is able to process any profile up to 44 inches wide x 18 inches tall.

“.. Although this machine is marketed for the Structural fabricators, I knew immediately it would work well for drilling truck frames. The accuracy & repeatability have ensured the assembly without error. The Avenger drills a set of channels for one truck in less than one 2 hours; when we did this manually, it would take 16 hours. This machine has increased our productivity & profitability hands down!..”

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.

Programming the CNC Drill Line is very simple and intuitive even for operators with no CNC or computer experience.

Voortman has developed Raptor 3DCAD/CAM Software. This software takes CNC innovation one step further. Users can program faster and more accurately with Raptor 3DCAD/CAM Software. You can inspect, modify and export your part information from within the 3D platform. This combination with Voortman CNC technology ensures maximum capacity for fabricators.

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.

".. This machine is intended for structural fabricators. However, I was able to see that it would be a good fit for drilling truck frames. Assembly was easy because of the repeatability and accuracy. Avenger drills the channels for one truck in two hours. If we were to do this manually it would take 16 hours. The Avenger has greatly increased our productivity and profitability !.."

Is it better to drill faster or slower

Auto Stand-Off – This is currently defined to be surface stand-off and not to be confused with vector stand-off in 5-axis mode. The current auto stand-off is based on a changing surface and will adjust vertically based on the angle of the “A” Axis, so there is five (5) axis taken into account during the calculations, but this is not the same as the tool vector stand-off. There is the ability to do the vector stand-off change while the machine is running manually with buttons on the screen.

Voortman has created the CNC beam drill line standard today using proven technology. Advantage-2 processes 150 tons of steel an average of once a week. The Advantage-2 is highly efficient in drilling, milling and tapping as well as countersinking.

Voortman exclusively designed and built the CNC Drill Line to fit GSS Machinery. Voortman oversees all aspects of the CNC Drill Line, including warranty and service. Voortman acts as the service provider. GSS Machinery will always assist should the need arise.

Yes. We have many CNC Drill Line installations outside. However suitable weather protection must be provided to the control panel and moving mobile platform. Please feel free to contact us to see photos from many of our outside installations.

Frequently Asked Questions

IS-456 (2000) Clause 29 states that a supported beam can be classified as deep if the ratio of its effective span to its overall depth D is less then 2. Continuous beams are classified as deep if the ratio L/D falls below 2.5. The centre-t is the measure of effective span.

The hole size should not exceed 38mm (1.25 in.). The beam depth should not exceed one-tenth of the hole diameter, whichever is less, with the exception being 25mm (1 in.).

Drilling lines are used for lifting or lowering the drill pipe into the wellbore. They present a challenging application for wire ropes with repetitive high-load bending over sheaves.

Prices for steel I-beams range from $6 to $20 per ft. Materials only. ... Steel I beams price list by length. Steel I-Beam Length Prices 10 feet 60 - $180 20ft $120 – $360 30ft $180 – $540 40ft $240 – $720

Because of their small cross-section area (known by the web), I beams require minimal material. However, they can still achieve the desired shape and function to carry out their load bearing duties. This design allows the I beam to bend under stress, rather than buckling.
