This CNC beam copier with single torch removes the need to manually place your copes.

Voortman Technical Support Offices are available 24 hours a week and are always willing to help you with any question, no matter how simple, or complex.

Machines

We have successfully installed over a thousand CNC beam and angle lines all around the globe. Our experience has shown that an average operator who has never programmed before can get the machine up and running in less time than one and a half days.

Voortman Technical Support Office is available round the clock and always happy to answer questions, regardless of how simple or difficult.

Your detailer will then give you a DWG/PLT/PDF file which you will use to plot or print your drawings. He will also send you the NC1 files to be imported directly into your machine. Voortman's Voortman includes the DSTV import function.

This plasma drilling machine can be used to perform as many functions as possible. The PCR41 can produce fully finished parts at low manufacturing costs. This machine automates all traditional cutting operations as well structural steel.

APC 1200, a fully upgraded unit, is available in addition to the basic unit. It is capable of oxy-fuel cutting and plasma combination, both with the torches mounted on a pivoting cylinder head. They can switch between them electronically in under a second and without any need to be done manually. The Plasma is used most of the time to maximize efficiency. It is preprogrammed with the ability to automatically switch over to Oxy Fuel if there is a material thickness that exceeds the Plasma's cut capacity. The laser probing is included in this upgraded unit.

We offer service for all types of structural steel fabrication machinery. Get in touch with us today to schedule a service.

As customers often bring a few pieces of steel with holes or layout marks, we train the operator to use Peddimat.

We are very particular about making fabrication tasks easy and efficient. This Robotic coping beam and profiling beam can process square tubes, angles bars, channels, square pipes, as well as T bars, plates, bulbs, and other materials. The possibilities for functions on your pipes/profiles are endless with any of our Coping or profiling Robots. It is an extremely efficient tooling system that produces high quality outputs. These outputs could be H, I, and T beams respectively, or U and L channels.

Voortman is able to cut steel beams into copes much faster than your layoutman. Voortman's CNC Beam Drill Line, and the Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. CNC Angle Line introduced affordable automation of angles and beams to small-to mid-sized fabricators. The Voortman brings automated beam coping to shops otherwise unimaginable.

The Voortman beam coping machine is a very simple machine with very few moving parts, making maintenance and parts exceptionally affordable. The Voortman was designed specifically to be used throughout the world and thus uses only components from major manufacturers, most of which can be sourced in the local market. Voortman keeps all parts on hand for next day delivery in the USA. In most of our overseas countries we offer local service and support.

Programming of the CNC Beam Coping Machine is very simple even when done manually. The machine programming software is Peddimat and most operators can learn how to program most parts in less than an hour. Of course practice makes perfect. However the best way to program the machine is to import parts directly from a CAD drawing preferably done in some 3-D modeling software such as Tekla Structures, SDS/2, ProSteel 3D, StruMis etc. These files import directly into the machine. In some cases the operator might need to edit the part program to create a lead out to ensure smooth cutting and then he merely selects the part to be processed and hits the Cycle Start button.

This software includes X-Steel and SDS/2, Tekla Structures as well as StruCAD, DetailCAD (BOCAD), SteelCAD, ProSteel 3D, etc. These 3-D modeling programs export the DSTV files that can be seamlessly imported into Voortman.

Frequently Asked Questions

To remove more wood from the back, angle the coping saw 30 degrees. Pro tip: Trimmings that have been cut with coping cuts can often leave thin, pointed tips. To prevent them from splintering, support the tips with your finger while you file, cut, or sand. Pro tip: Keep your eyes on the outside of the line.

A channel for rainwater is the primary purpose of coping. The coping prevents rainwater from seeping into walls by allowing it to drip down the walls. It also gives the wall an artistic look.

Douglas fir is perhaps the strongest of all wood beams. Although there may be a stronger wood, I don't know of any. Lumber mills today make beams in the same way as plywood. To make extremely strong structural engineered timbers, they use layers of solid wood that have been glued together.

H-Beams. H-beams are one of the strongest steel beams. It is composed of horizontal elements and the web by vertical beams. Popular in civil engineering and construction, the web and flanges create a cross section that is similar to the shape of the letter H.

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.
