Beam Coping Machine Drum

Voortman's software features CAD for custom design, CAM to nest and CNC for automated operations. It is compatible with almost any profile or design and does not require an annual service contract.

Our factory-trained service tech will spend 5 days on the job installing your machine, calibrating and retraining your operators. This will allow for more hands-on operation as well as troubleshooting and diagnostic training.

“.. in the two and a half years we have had an Voortman, the efficiency and quality of the preparation procedures for our product has been drastically increased. Coping and weld prep of the past was very time consuming. Manually laying out and burning left a lot to be desired. With the Liberator, the burns are much cleaner, reducing grind time dramatically. The Liberator is a compact machine that delivers big results. All in all, Ocean has provided an opportunity to save time and energy, which equals out to saving money and our customers get a quality product.”

The PCR42 robotic plasma cutter does beam coping and notches, holes, and weld preps. It also splits beams and scribes as well as marks on all four sides of H-beams channels angles, HSS, plates, and H-beams.

The basic unit comprises a semiautomatic, oxyfuel-fuel coping system. The operator positions the piece, fine tunes it, cuts the material, and adjusts the torch height. A laser can be used to automatically set the torch height and probe the material. The basic unit also comes with powered conveyors. These allow the operator the ability to manually measure the length of the feedstock and mark it before cutting. There is an optional automated measuring device that uses laser to measure the feed stock. The operator can input the material to be cut through the interface. Operator scrolls through a number of options via pictorial representations displayed on the computer touch screen. The computer is programmed to display all the dimensions of AISC structural Steel. A fully dimensioned, dimensional cope drawing is available to facilitate programming and save time. Operators have the option to override or customize input and they can save it as a new programming program, if required. DSTV exported diagrams can also be used to program the machine. The wireless remote control allows the operator to turn on, off and operate the equipment. The operator can freely view the equipment at any angle that is necessary to verify operation and maintain accuracy. The operator marks the material, then moves it to a suitable position. Finally, he clamps the material hydraulically so that it can be cut. The operator aligns his laser to the mark and starts the cycle. The torch turns on, preheating and heating the material. The operator initiates the process of cutting and finishes it as long the torch height is maintained.

We always train your operator how to run the machine using Peddimat as you are often going to have the situation where a customer arrives with a couple of pieces of steel that need holes or layout marks and you want to be able to produce them quickly without bothering your detailing staff who might be busy on a larger job.

Robotic Coping and Profiling can make your fabrication process more efficient. This system has been specifically designed for metalworkers and fabricators. It is able to work with angle lines, beam drilllines, hydraulic punches, ironworkers and band saws. This is a great way to improve your fabrication processes by taking them from zero to one hundred.

Voortman CNC Beam Coper is made for fabricators and general shops that deal with all types steel profiles. You can determine if this machine meets your needs by answering the following questions:
