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.
Voortman beam-coping machine comes equipped with long, durable, rigid torch tips that can be used to precisely position the machine within flanges. Additionally, the closed loop system allows for the torchhead's disengagement in the unlikely event that it comes into contact with an obstruction such as slag.
Voortman uses the Voortman's torch nozzle. The nozzle is specially engineered to last 3 - 6 month depending on how hot your machine runs. The torch nozzle is difficult to bend due to the head breakaway that deflects it. The heat of the gases through the nozzle eventually causes nozzles to become worn. Replacement torch tips are available for $75 per tip.
".. during the two and a-half years we have had an Voortman preparation procedures for the product have been dramatically improved. Coping with weld prep was a time-consuming task in the past. Manually laying out or burning the materials left much to do. The Liberator produces cleaner burns, which reduces grind time by a lot. The Liberator, a compact machine with big results, is very effective. Ocean has enabled us to save our customers time and money.
This 5-axis CNC robotic, oxy-fuel cutting beam copier is extremely affordable. You can make any type of cut on beams channels, angels plates and rectangle tubes. The profile cutting machine is versatile enough to cut almost any type of drawing. This machine can not only cope but can be extended to any length!
Voortman's Roller Feed Measurement System exceeds industry standards for roller measurement technology. It is essential to ensure that accurate measurements are taken without any delay in production. Even if there are slight variations in the material, accuracy is maintained.
The cutting head for the Voortman CNC Beam Coping Machine is a simple and inexpensive oxy-fuel head, and utilizes oxygen and any fuel of your choice, including propane, acetylene, propylene, or natural gas. These gases are very inexpensive and freely available from your welding supplier, and welders familiar with hand torch cutting will be able to set up the flow rates of the Oxy-Fuel just as they are used to doing.
Bend-Tech Dragon A400 CNC tube cutter, engraving and marking machine is commercial grade. Dragon A400 is a combination of the most powerful CAD/CAM software in the world, and will do the job with precision and speed.
A coping saw simply has a C-shaped steel frame that holds pivoting blade holders. These pin the blade's ends. The blade can be tightened by a few twists of its handle. This tensions the blade and allows it to make fast, precise cuts in almost any material.
A 10-foot I-beam of steel will cost $60-$180, while a 40 foot beam will cost between $240-$720.
Preheat the I-beam using the torch flame. To start cutting, grab the torch trigger and hold it. Holding the torch trigger, point it at the outer edge to cut along the line. You can stop if necessary and then continue where you left off.
Coping, Latin for "coping", is the covering or capping of a wall. A wedge or splayed coping slopes in one direction. A saddle coping slopes to the opposite side of a central highpoint.
This is the point where the pool structure meets its surrounding deck. The coping is typically installed in a 12-inch radius around the pool's perimeter and the spa.
