Importing files directly into your steel detailing software is a better option. It eliminates unnecessary steps and can also prevent any incorrect data capture. This is a distinction that can be distinguished into two camps:

Automatic Edge Finder - The edgefinder can be used manual (Jogging Method and Screen Buttons), programmatically using M &G codes or fully automated with a dedicated program. This option sets offsets and rotates the program to match location and orientation on the cutting surface.

Z-Reader Probe – The Z-Reader is a device for mapping the location of the surface. It can be controlled manually & programmatically. The option is NOT active while cutting & is retracted out of harm’s way. It can be triggered to verify the surface at every pierce before the cutting process starts, or it could be used to drive surface mapping of the whole part before cutting starts. It begins with initialization or zeroing of the device to the surface at the beginning of a program and then accumulates or tracks the difference from that zeroing effort.

Voortman offers regularly scheduled training courses for all Voortman Ocean equipment in their Bradley Illinois facility. These courses are available for both new operators and retraining existing operators. Participants who have completed this course return to the shop motivated, highly trained and eager to improve their productivity. Call us for more information and pricing.

Frequently Asked Questions

According to the International Residential Building Code (IRC), 2021, a common 6x6 softwood beam span is 3'-5" to 7'-6". The wood's strength and other variables affect how long the span. While hardwood of similar dimensions will span more than steel, the cost difference can be substantial.

Drill Lines Wire Rope Bright drill lines are made from a multi-threaded, twisty wire rope. It is specially designed for drilling rigs as well as hoisting and lowering the drill pipes through a wellbore. As it is constantly in motion, the wire rope construction is very durable and resists abrasion.

T Beam's disadvantages: Because the beam slab is monolithic (rigid), its resistance to lateral shear forces becomes very weak. (cracks develops quickly). This is why T beams are used for high-rise buildings in earthquake-prone areas.

A box (or square shell) is the best shape in 2D for both directions. However, a cylindrical shell, or tube, is more efficient for bending in any direction. The I, or wide flange beam, is better for unidirectional bending.

Never drill a hole less than 1' from the floor joist or beam end. Also, avoid drilling within 1 foot of the beam's top on a post or support column. 2. The 1/3/3 rule applies to overhead spans.
