Robotic Coping Machines

MSI (also known as Multi System Integration) allows you to automate your production by connecting machines to cross-transports, roller conveyors and product buffers. MSI distributes your production data automatically to all integrated machines in your production system by simply importing the production data once.

The V808 roller feeder measurement and clamping systems locks profiles in the exact position and maintains alignment through processing. This fully automatic measuring and positioning roller feed system is faster than any other because it does not need a pusher, gripper or to return home before loading the next item. This saves hours each week. Voortman’s roll feed system works in a standard range with profile processing. Voortman’s automation in-feed cross transportations allow for full automation. This allows Voortman to accurately position and process beams upto 15.000 kg (33,000lbs).

The Voortman V808 doesn’t need a clean cut with every new product in a nesting. Besides reducing the scrap to a minimum this is also a time saving option as the last cut of a product is also the first cut of the next product. The V808 can import DSTV+ files or use VACAM’s beam nesting module to create continuous nestings and get the most product from each stock length to reduce costs.

The V808 DOES IT ALL Fabricators get hard-to-beat price savings by using robotic plasma processing instead of separate solutions for drilling and milling, sawing. Combining all these processes on one machine will save you money over buying separate machines with their own functions.

Robotics Co-op

Robotics Co-op

Steel beams, pipes, and tubes must often be coping when they are used in steel fabrication. These assemblies have to be able to fit together parts with irregular shapes and angles, such handrails or car bumpers. Coping makes it possible for all parts, regardless their shape or size, to fit together perfectly in their surroundings.

All machines are equipped with our proprietary VACAM control system. Every machine has the same "look and feel", which dramatically reduces your learning curve. VACAM's open platform makes it easy to exchange production data with third party ERP or MRP software. This allows you to keep track of your progress and provide insight into the state of your projects. VACAM gives you a visual representation of all your workflows and processes. It also analyzes imported products immediately. The software automatically recommends the best solution for any problem. Your production will not be interrupted, which results in an increase in efficiency and longer runtime.

Owning our Robotic Coping and Profiling system is equivalent to an optimized fabrication process that has been automated specifically to bring ease to fabricators and metalwork manufacturers as it can easily work the processes of angle lines, beam drill lines, hydraulic punches, ironworkers, band saws and coping machines respectively. This is simply a way to take your fabrication processes from zero to a hundred!

The Voortman V808 has a powerful measuring and clamping machine. This fully automatic measuring roller-feed system is the fastest because it doesn't require a pusher/gripper to return home before loading another piece. It also saves hours per week. This system allows for a maximum weight of 15.000 kg/33.000lbs, which makes it more versatile and powerful.

Pipe Cutting

We created a real-time processing demo product to show you that the Voortman V808 is the fastest robotic thermal cutting machine in the market. Watch the video below to see the speed of the Voortman V808 yourself. The product below contains 12 different actions, all done by one machine:

CNC coping makes it possible to complete the entire steel-coping process using a single CNC machine. A CNC machine can be used to transfer all engineering data and prepare beams as an automated alternative.

Robotic Coping Machines So Expensive

The V808 comes with an 8-axis robotic cutting cutter that is agile enough to process all profiles up to the maximum width. Voortman has placed two additional axes in addition to the six that are provided by the Panasonic robot. This gives the machine a wider reach and allows it to place itself beneath the raw materials. Voortman has programmed the robot to ensure it is always in the most stable position. This helps improve cutting quality.

Rat holes, seismic structural connections (jay-allan, dog bone connections), copes on the lead or trail ends of products, block outs holes of all sizes and shapes, weld preparations for marking on all sides and more Voortman's V808 can handle all four sides of the material using one robot. This makes it the most versatile machine in the market. The software allows for all cuts and profiles, as shown in the video.

Frequently Asked Questions

Weiten identified four types of coping strategies. They are: problem-focused (adaptive cognitive), appraisal-focused (adaptive behavioral), emotion focused (emotion-focused) and occupation-focused. Billings and Moos also added avoidance coping to the list of emotion-focused coping.

H-Beams. H-beams are one of the strongest steel beams. It is composed of horizontal elements and the web by vertical beams. Popular in civil engineering and construction, the web and flanges create a cross section that is similar to the shape of the letter H.

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.

Scroll saw blades are a bit thinner than coping saw blades and have finer teeth. Scroll saws are more suitable for delicate and intricate work. Coping saws, on the other hand, are slightly better for thicker materials that require less delicacy.

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.
