Beam Coper
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.

The Voortman CNC Beam Coper can be used by fabricators or general job shops to cut and notch different types of steel profiles. The following questions can help you decide if this machine is the right one for your needs.
Voortman uses a torch nozzle specially made for him. It will usually last between 3 and 6 months, depending on how hot the machine is run. The torch nozzle can be bent almost impossible due to the breakaway head that redirects the torchnozzle. The heat from the gases that pass through the nozzle eventually causes the nozzles to wear out. For $75 each tip, you can get replacement torch tips.
The ABCM-1250 CNC beam coping tool can help you achieve miter and straight cuts at new heights. Combine the ABCM-1250 with Voortman's automatic cutting systems to create separate beams and place them in-line in record time.
The Voortman comes equipped with a 12-month parts or labor warranty. The factory service technicians will fix your Voortman Beam Coping Machine in no time.
The basic unit is a semi-automatic, oxy-fuel coping machine. The operator positions the workpiece, finetunes it, starts the cut and adjusts the torch height while cutting. (There is an automated option for a laser to auto probe and set the torch height.) The basic unit comes with powered conveyors where the operator manually measures and marks the X length on the feed stock prior to cutting. (There is also an optional automated measuring system via Laser measuring of the feed stock.) The interface allows the operator to input material type to be cut. The operator scrolls through a list of options via pictorial representations on the computer touch screen. The computer is programmed with all the AISC structural steel dimensions. A fully dimensioned cope drawing is displayed simplifying programing, saving time and minimizing operator input error. The operator can override and customize the input as needed, and it can be stored as a new program, if desired. The machine can also be pre-programmed from the office through DSTV exported drawings. There is a wireless remote control that the operator uses to start, stop and operate the equipment. This allows the Operator to freely walk around viewing from any angle needed to verify operations and maintain accuracy. The operator makes his mark on the material, moves the material into position, and hydraulically clamps the material to be cut into place. The operator lines the laser to the mark and begins the cycle. The torch ignites, pre-heating the material. The operator manually initiates the cutting process and finishes the cut as he maintains the proper torch height.
Voortman offers regular training courses on all Voortman and Ocean equipment at their facility in Bradley Illinois. These courses are suitable for new operators and for refreshing existing operators. Employees that pass through this facility return to your shop highly trained, motivated and eager to improve your productivity. Please call for details and pricing.
Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. is confident that its Robotic Coping and Profiling technology is unmatched in the industry. This plasma technology system can be used to cut through a wide range metal profiles.
The time is many so METEOR-1200 is ready to reduce your labor either for drilling or for on-site assembly. METEOR-1200 is ready to drill beams, angles, flat sheets and any suitable geometry. You can also mill slots, pockets and any geometry by having state of arts control system.
These two features are designed to increase the accuracy of cuts and are not present on all beam-coping machines. Voortman does include them.
Voortman can make the steel beams’ copes cut faster than your layoutman. Voortman CNC Angle Line and Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. CNC Angle Line both brought automation of beams and angles at an affordable price to small-to–medium fabricators. Voortman does the same.
Voortman CNC Beam Coping Machine makes use of oxyfuel. This means that any material with a thickness of 6'' or more can be dealt with.

1- T beams have a greater second moment inertia than ordinary beams. This means they are more resistant to bending.
Continuous: A beam that extends over more than two supports. Cantilever: A beam that projects from one end and is fixed at the other. The support on the opposite end of the beam is not needed. We will examine some classic beam loading examples. This simple beam has two supports and a centre load.
Coping is an architectural term that refers to the top course masonry used to "cape" an exterior wall's top. Coping can be sloped or curved to divert water away.
Coping Saw Coping Saws are handsaws that can cut extremely tight curves in thin stock like trim molding. They can be used to cut outside (from the edge), on stock up to two or three inches thick.
