With Voortman, a profile of the cope can be uploaded to the CNC software from the built-in shape library or CAD. The user-friendly interface will then allow you to manually calibrate cutting tolerances, nest parts for coping, and track robotic cutting paths before the work begins so that any mistakes can be avoided. Then, the material simply needs to be loaded and the start button pressed for Voortman to begin coping with perfection.

To service our global clientele, Voortman proudly provides our partners with 24 hour technical support.

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.

Copping is an industry term that refers to making relief cuts in the beam in order to ensure it fits with the other parts of the framework. You can do coping using a handheld torch but many professional structural steel fabricators will use a beam cutter machine to improve accuracy and speed up production. Voortman-savvy workers have an advantage because of the many benefits that this CNC beam coping machine provides.

APC 1200 can be upgraded to the full extent of the base unit. It can do both oxy-fuel and combination plasma cutting, with both torches mounted upon a pivoting base. They can flip between the two via computer control in a matter of seconds. The Plasma is the main tool used by the machine to maximize its efficiency. It can automatically switch to Oxy Fuel when the thickness of the material exceeds the Plasma's cutting capacity. This upgraded unit also includes the laser probing feature for height adjustment.

Frequently Asked Questions

To prevent rainwater entering the structure below, copings and caps are used to cover the tops of freestanding walls and parapets made from masonry. You can make them from either profiled metal like lead, aluminium or zinc or special bricks and masonry.

Steel is stronger than wood pound for pound. It's amazing to see how engineered wood beams have evolved over the past 40-years.

Support for beam splices should be provided by some type of post or structural column. A foot-ing should be provided that the column or post rests on. The beams should be attached to the post using an approved metal connector. The beams must be supported by at most 1 in.

Your coping should be visible enough to make tricks easier but not too much that it blocks your flow. We found that drilling the coping into a parallel-running 2x4 support directly behind it was the best way to fasten it.

Cladding is usually made up of thin slabs of about 3cm thickness with a front finish and placed on the walls. Copings come in different thicknesses and are located at the top of walls.
