Voortman has made the success for the steel industry his number one priority. Because of this, our support and service is unparalleled. Ask for a demonstration, quote, visit, or phone to learn more about some of the most formidable steel fabrication machinery. Voortman has more strength than steel.
"..We have drilled around 25,000 holes since purchasing our CNC Drill Line approximately four months ago. It used to take 5 minutes to drill each hole. We now spend approximately. 30 seconds per hole, which is a saving of 1875 man-hours over the course of 4 months. That's $84,375 for our shop! You can see that this machine will pay back in less than one years. This machine not only speeds up our production, but it also opens up the floor for new jobs.
Beam drills are essential tools for medium-sized to large-sized structural fabricators. Beam drill lines can accurately drill holes in various steel profiles of different lengths and with CNC controlled programming. These machines remove the need to manually draw or lay out the positions. Instead, the machine produces the hole using a mag drill punch, plasma, or punch. This laborious process can take many hours and may require several employees. A beam drillline eliminates the need to manually plan and avoids any errors.
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.
CNC Drill Line: The CNC Drill Line is today's most affordable CNC beam drill system on the market. It allows the fabricator to win more work and make more margin.
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.
AC Unit Mounted on Electrical Cabinet. The unit is located on the cabinet's High-Power (480v) side. It is located close to where the drives are installed. This allows for faster heat dissipation and keeps the cabinet's temperature stable. All axes have servo drives that are the main contributors to heat in the electrical cabinet.
GSS Machinery wants to give you as many options possible when drilling with your CNC Drill Line and any other CNC Beam Drill Line.
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.
Voortman's service technician will finish calibrating your machine and spend time with you, your operators. He will then take them through our easy-to-understand training program. You will receive instruction in:
