Voortman's team works with you to design the entire layout. It is based on current and expected production characteristics such as product length, product length, process hours, budget, and work week.

The PCR42 plasma cutler can be learned by an operator in less than a day. The interface is simple and easy to use. Mac-Tech can help you if ever you have any questions.

The Robotic Coping/Profiling system is an equivalent of an automated fabrication process. It can handle the following processes: beam drill lines, angle lines, hydraulic punches and ironworkers. This is just one way to make your fabrication processes more efficient.

Manual layouts and setups require skilled and experienced fabricators. Low-skilled fabricators may result in costly mistakes or inferior quality that can be more expensive to rectify than working directly with a CNC machine operator.

Steel beams, tubes and pipes are often required to be coping in order to fit within an assembly. These assemblies often have to fit together irregular-shaped parts and angles such as handrails and car bumpers or racecar roll cages. Coping allows all parts to fit into their respective settings, regardless of size or shape.

The V808 robot profile processor can cut all types of shapes and lay out marking on all 4 sides. If this profile width is not possible, the VoortmanV807, our latest coping robot, can often be used to process profiles up to 1.050mm (42). Thermally, the V808 robot can handle a variety of thermally-processable cuts including rat holes, seismic structural connections (like slotted Web and "dog bone") cuts, copes at product's beginning and end, block outs and holes in any shape or size, weld preps and marking on all four sides.

Voortman's V808 doesn’t require a clean cut when nesting new products. It is possible to reduce scrap by using this method. Also, the last cut from a product is the first cut of the next one. The V808 is able to import DSTV+ or VACAM's beam nesting modules to create continuous nestings. You can get more product out of every stock length and reduce costs.

Voortman’s V808 robotic heating cutting machine, like all others, comes with the VACAM software. This allows all machines to speak the same "language". The V808 has a lot of versatility and can be used either as a part of a new layout that includes roller conveyors, cross-transports, and other Voortman processing machines or as a standalone center.

To use your profiles to the fullest, the V808 can be equipped with sliding roller conveyors enabling you to process your profiles completely from front to back. This means that no material is being wasted. The sliding roller conveyors reduce the minimum infeed and outfeed length to 1.400 mm (55 inches) in full automation combined with cross-transports and in- and outfeed roller conveyors.

The PCR41 is a revolutionary design that combines robots, vision systems, and plasma torch tech to offer the best combination speed, accuracy, and 4-face operation to cut structural steel.

Rat Holes

AFD CNC Flange and Plate Drilling Machine allows you to drill up to 680 mm and 1/4" through 3-1/8". All of this within your own area. Material is driven on the table using balls. It is then fixed to the table with hydraulic clamping teeth. Material is positioned to the desired coordinates for drilling/marking/tapping by CNC program and then operation starts.

We will partner with you to devise a solution that fits your specific needs. The roller-feed monitoring system is fully integrated in the machine housing. This gives you total flexibility to plan and expand in your shop. The machine can be started with a basic layout. As your business grows, it can be easily extended with more automated logistics. Voortman machines allow you to expand your company's capacity without increasing labor costs.

Our VACAM software, which we developed ourselves, is known for its outstanding performance in buffer management and material handling. Active buffer management guarantees a priority position in the line for the first profile while buffering all subsequent profiles. Profiles can be moved towards the datum to allow for new profiles to be loaded onto the system. This increases productivity and efficiency significantly, as machines no longer wait in idle mode to produce the next profile.

Our Robotic Coping & Profiling system can be used to automate the fabrication processes of metalwork manufacturers and fabricators. It can work with various angles, beam drill lines and hydraulic punches. This is a simple way to increase the efficiency of your fabrication process from zero to 100!

Frequently Asked Questions

Coping saws, hand saws that have a distinctive U-shaped shape, are used to make curved cuts in thinner materials at home or in the shop.

Both coping saws as well as jigsaws can cut curves or irregular shapes. Due to its shorter blade and faster speed, a jigsaw works better for cutting very irregular shapes or tight curves. For curved or circular curves, coping saws work better.

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.

The strength tolerances of the C-beam are lower than those of the I-beam. This results in lighter components. Continue reading if you have never used C-beam profiles. Let us walk you through the basics to help you decide if it is right for you.

When you are assembling a coping-saw, ensure that the teeth point towards the handle. The teeth will cut if you pull the saw rather than pushing it. This will improve accuracy and prevent your saw from breaking. It will also keep your wood from chipping.
