MULTI SYSTEMINTEGRATIONTM

Voortman’s Multi System IntegrationTM is fully-automated steel processing that provides numerous benefits based upon decades of knowledge and experience in steel fabrication optimization. Combining multiple machines via mechanical transport systems and material sensors, production is simplified to a single file import that is distributed to every machine in the MSITM production line.

MSITM reduces manual labor, minimizes bottleneck issues and increases efficiency while monitoring the entire process in realtime. It uses Voortman’s own, in-house developed VACAM control software algorithms to intelligently predict and execute load-balanced material routing, reducing bottlenecks and utilizing each machine to its full potential.

“IT ALL STARTS WITH YOUR NEEDS.”

AUTOMATED PRODUCTION

A single operator can harness the power of all

machines in a production line with MSITM. Data is

shared between machines to synchronize throughput

times.

Moving steel efficiently through automated fabrication machinery and ultimately getting the processed

detail parts to the weld stations requires well organized logistics with interconnected machinery.

OUTFEED ZONES

VACAM automatically sorts processed products from one machine to the next machine or to an outfeed

zone. These outfeed zones can be configured based on for example length or product type. If the product

needs more machining, VACAM ensures that the product ends up at the infeed of the correct machine.

With Voortman's production lines, it is also possible to outfeed products to the left, the right or both

directions. The infeed can also be configured to be left, right or both, making the Voortman Multi System

IntegrationTM extremely flexible.

KEEP IT SAFE

Voortman machines are standard equipped with high-end safety equipment. This is all connected to the

control system of the machine. When the safety zone is entered, the included machine and handling

system will stop immediately. Restarting the machine is done by pushing just one button. You don’t need

to restart the whole machine but the machine continues where it stopped. Voortman developed different

safety equipment for various machines and their handling systems, which do not affect the up-time of

the machine.

TYPES OF CROSS TRANSPORTS

Depending on the type of production work, MSITM lines can be laid out with (bi-directional) drag-dogs or

liftables. Each type has its own advantages.MSITM production lines can be equipped with various measurement systems. The choice of a measurement

system depends on the particular requirements and constraints of the workshop it needs to be installed

in. The type of production itself is an important factor, as measurement systems can be better suited

for series production, short products or different types of profiles. Voortman has extensive experience

with production databases and can advise on the mix of measurement systems required for a particular

production database. Optimizations can be made for footprint, autonomy, processing time, minimum

product size and bundle sawing.

MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS

LIFTABLE CROSS TRANSPORTSTRANSFER SINGLE BEAMS IN EITHER DIRECTION, LEFT OR RIGHT

Voortman has the solution to transport from just

one way to the other or transport profiles in both

directions. The type of drag-dogs in the cross

transports determine the exact capabilities. The

buffer management and transport operate fully

automatic to ensure a fast and flawless operation.

HARDWARECOMPONENTS

BUFFER MANAGEMENTMoving material between between machines is based on Vacam's buffer management to achieve the

following three objectives:

¹ Making sure that machines run as efficient as possible: with machines completing processes at

different throughput times for different profiles and different products, it is necessary that buffers

are large enough to make sure that a machine is not waiting in idle mode for the next profile or

production batch.

¹ Optimal use of cross transports: with some profiles, the cross transports can be filled without

space in between and some profiles require handling space. Sensors in the cross transport, verify the

expected type of profile and ensure optimal use of the cross transports.

¹ Creating batches for the shot blaster and paint line: For a shot blaster and painter, the space in

between the profiles is crucial to get the required result. Based on the profile, the buffer management

makes exactly the right batches before being loaded in these surface treatment lines at once.

MATERIAL TRANSPORT BETWEEN MACHINESVoortman excels at reducing labor hours and costs by eliminating all manual intervention, while

automatically transporting materials through the production line. Roller conveyors, cross transports, and

measurement systems are used to transfer material between various machines. These hardware elements

allow a modular approach to build custom beam lines. The choice of the cross transport depends on the

particular needs and constraints of the workshop it needs to be installed in.

Voortman's liftable cross transports are able to

transport a batch of profiles to the next production

phase in one operation. The system works

fully automatically as well and carries multiple

profiles. This system will be a perfect solution for

transporting profiles in a painting machine or shot blaster.

1 EFFICIENCY AND PRODUCTIVITYProducts are processed by the drill and sawed to length in one combined operation. By doing this, the profile is only measured once, saving time and handling.

One of the biggest leaps forward in automated structural steel machining is the coupling of drilling and sawing machines. Stand-alone versions of automatic CNC drilling and sawing machines existed for a while, but placing them back-to-back provides many advantages.

Next to a back-to-back drill/saw line is a split system where the machines are still communicating with each other, but they are split with buffers in between. There is still only one loading and unloading position while the buffers reduce bottlenecks in the sawing, drilling, or other processing machine.

STAND-ALONEMACHINESEven a single Voortman machine offers benefits from combining multiple processes

into a single machine station. Stand-alone machines are able to streamline many

processes in your workshop with speed, accuracy and cost improvements.DIGITAL INPUTProducts coming from popular 3D construction software can be imported directly into the machines, eliminating the time it takes to manually measure and mark positions.

STREAMLINED PRODUCTION PROCESSWhen creating a streamlined production process, Voortman offers several stand-alone machines that can perform multiple processes on one single machine. The V310 plate processing machine is a good example where cutting and drilling can be executed on one machine. This instantly simplifies the production process. Customers receive the benefits of increased flexibility, decreased manual material handling and ultimately a quicker lead time. Voortman makes sure every action adds value to your end product as efficiently and productively as possible.

FAST ROIStand-alone machines are cost-effective. A single machine can initially be purchased and incremental investments can be done to expand automation in the factory gradually. This makes the investment manageable, lowers the risk and ensures your investment will still be useful in your future workshop and production goals.

HIGHER ACCURACYAll stand-alone machines have calibrated CNC measurement systems. They are able to execute processes faster and more accurately than manual production.

“VOORTMAN WAS THE ONLY SUPPLIER TO

FULLFILL OUR NEEDS AND REQUIREMENTS

IN TERMS OF AUTOMATION AND FAST

PROCESSING TIME.”

FRANCE | Canametal is a large steel fabricator in France. With over 50 years of experience, Canametal continues to adapt to market needs and to provide a recognized expertise.

Canametal has built its reputation because of its reliability and its capacity to build significant projects.

“Voortman was the only supplier to fulfill our needs and requirements in terms of automation and fast processing time,” said Nicolas Pouvreau, General Director. “The local presence of the Voortman technical and sales subsidiary in Nantes was also a big plus.”

Some of Canametal’s major partners recommended Voortman. Because the technical description was very strict, Voortman was the only company capable to fulfill 100% of the requirements. On automation and fast movements inside the machine Voortman was leading compared to other suppliers. Additionally, the Voortman Customer Services has a good reputation, since they always respond immediately on requests and because of their local presence in France.

Voortman spent a lot of time and energy in coming up with the perfect solution, tailor made to perfectly fit Canametal’s needs and desires. Finally, Canametal chose to combine two saw/drill lines, after having considered one single line initially. Having analysed the various layouts, all agreed that this way bottlenecks would be minimized and up-time maximized.

Another advantage of Voortman is the high production capacity of their machines. Canametal wanted to grow turnover from 15 to 20 million euros within several years. This meant that Canametal’s capacity also had to increase from 800 tonnes/month today to 1.200-1.500 tonnes/month in the future.

STEEL FABRICATION

UNITED KINGDOM | Leach Structural Steelwork Ltd. is a large structural steel fabricator based in Preston, Lancashire, United Kingdom. The company was founded 40 years ago and experienced a significant growth over the last years. Leach currently employs approximately 200 employees.

Leach was investigating the possibilities in automation and decided to renew their pre-processing with a fully automated Voortman beam line. By doing so, beams can be automatically transported, without manual interference. This has huge benefits in terms of manual handling and safety.

Eric Leach: “The new system has allowed us to make more use of our existing labor force and deploy our existing staff over more shifts and more machines, which under certain circumstances can give us a 50 up to 100 percent increase in capacity.” In addition, the new system with the new Voortman machinery made Leach more attractive for certain type of projects.

Since Leach now has a total of 11 Voortman machines and the entire beam line is quite complex, there may be some service requests according to Eric Leach. He states: “Our service requests are generally responded to within an hour, if not in less than an hour. We are generally solved or moving forward within a short period of time.”

Voortman delivered a tailor made version of the Multi System IntegrationTM (MSITM) solution. By interconnecting the handling systems and the in-house developed VACAM software on the machines, one virtually integrated automated production system is created.

PLASMA CUTTING

OXY-FUEL CUTTING

MARKING

PLASMA 3D BEVEL CUTTING

DRILLING

Plasma cutting is a thermal process used to cut electrically conductive materials. Plasma cutting is much faster than oxy-fuel cutting in the lower mild steel thickness range (3 mm up to 25 mm). Furthermore, capital expenditures for the same size machine are 75% lower than high-powered fiber lasers while maintaining or outpacing cutting speeds at a medium thickness (12 mm) and up. For medium-to-thick stainless steels where oxy-fuel is not an option, plasma is by far the preferred cutting technology.

Voortman introduced several technologies to improve results and counteract the natural behaviour of plasma. Technologies like “I-cut” to counteract the standard taper, or the dross-inhibitor to reduce the amount of dross created with piercing, help provide the highest cutting quality.

The main advantages of oxy-fuel cutting are the low operational costs and the low associated capital expenditure compared to other cutting processes such as plasma or laser cutting. However, because of the significant reduction in speed, oxy-fuel cutting is still not always the preferred method of cutting. In fact, the higher your overall labor costs and the higher your capital expenditure of the rest of the machine, the thicker your material has to be if you want oxy-fuel cutting to become economically efficient.

Piece and layout marking by plasma or milling is available on many machines equipped with a plasma unit, drill spindle and automatic toolchanger. Layouts and part numbers can be placed on the material during processing. Plasma marking is beneficial because it can be done with the same plasma unit, while milling has the advantage of creating a high quality mark that remains visible even after shot blasting, painting, or galvanizing. Additionally, some plate processing machines can be equipped with a hydraulic numbering unit or injet printer, depending on your preferred marking method.

Weld preparations cover by far the majority of where the bevel unit is used for and it is expected that more than 30% of your parts requires a beveled edge for further weld preparations purposes. Traditionally these weld preparations are created by a manual torch, by a milling machine or even by a manual grinder. Nowadays, with the shortage of labor and increased productivity demands, this work needs to be shifted towards the cutting machine where the weld preparation is created directly during cutting of your product, eliminating manual handling and routing through the factory.

Compared to thermal cutting and punching, drilling has the main advantage that it results in holes with a higher quality capable in greater thickness materials. You get a completely cylindrical hole, smooth surface inside the hole and no thermal or mechanical tensions on the surface of the hole. Voortman high performance drill spindles are a proven technology. Automated drilling means shorter production time and less material handling, so your production line is capable of outputting a part accurately in a fraction of the average time.

MANUFACTURINGPROCESSES

PUNCHING

SHEARING

Punching has a distinctive character compared to milling, drilling and cutting, since it is by far the cheapest and fastest process to create these holes. However, the hole quality of a punched hole is somewhat inferior since a difference can be observed between the bottom diameter and top diameter of a punched hole. This is influenced by the size of the clearance, which normally should be between 8 to 15% of the material thickness. As a result, a punched hole is not always ideal because the surface around the hole is less refined than a drilled or milled hole, and micro fractures can occur at high dynamic loads. However, as long as punching is allowed and your production process shows relatively little variation in thicknesses, hole sizes, shapes and material types, punching is the preferred process. Voortman offers excellent punching solutions with multiple punches and dies, which increases versatility and hole quality and reduces downtime.

The edge quality produced from shearing is generally less refined than sawing or thermal cutting, but also more cost-effective. The surface created by shearing is acceptable for many applications. Voortman offers shearing on all flat/angle punching and shearing machines.

MILLINGMilling is used for various purposes, but mostly for three distinct types of holes: oversized round holes that cannot be drilled, round slotted holes for e.g. connections that require flexibility during construction and rectangular holes. Many Voortman machines are also capable of carrying out milling operations.

“THE VOORTMAN V304 PLATE MACHINE IS

MORE EFFICIENT AND FASTER THAN OUR

PREVIOUS PLATE CUTTING MACHINE.”

NETHERLANDS | Caterpillar Work Tools BV based in ‘s-Hertogenbosch, The Netherlands is a company with a worldwide representation and develops, manufactures and markets high-quality, innovative wheel-loader and excavator attachments on an international scale.

The company was founded in the Dutch town called Kerkdriel, near ‘s-Hertogenbosch, by the Verachtert family in 1953. It started as a local supplier of non-hydraulic dragline buckets. Later, the main focus of the company’s business shifted towards the production of new attachments. In 1979, the company opened new offices and a factory complex in ‘s-Hertogenbosch and in 1998, the company was taken over by Caterpillar Inc.

Caterpillar Work Tools BV provides the highest quality work tools and services that optimize machine performance and strengthen Caterpillar’s total solutions. They export mostly to official Caterpillar dealers in Europe, Africa and the Middle East. Caterpillar is a leading manufacturer for multiple business areas: building and heavy construction, industrial, mining, forestry and demolition products.

“With our new Voortman V304 plate cutting machine we are now able to automate beveling which we used to do manually. This will save us more than 50% processing time. Furthermore, this machine is more efficient and faster than our previous plate cutting machine ensuring a faster processing speed,” Harold van Tooren, project leader process optimization.

During the search for a new machine, Caterpillar visited the Voortman Experience Center for a demonstration of 3D beveling on the Voortman V304. During this demonstration they discovered that they needed the option “inkjet marking”, which saves even more time in assembling and welding and helps to prevent errors in these processes.

“We are working with the V304 for some time now and we expect the ROI to be in line with our expectations”, Van Tooren continues. “This because of its high efficiency, automated beveling and inkjet marking. The V304 is an essential part of our production process so we cannot afford downtime. This is one of the reasons we have chosen Voortman.”

SERVICE CENTER

“THIS MACHINE BASICALLY IS A U-CELL FOR

AN OPERATOR. YOU CAN BURN, DRILL AND

LOAD THE TABLE AT THE SAME TIME.”

USA | The Ryerson business started back in 1842 when Joseph T. Ryerson opened his iron store along the banks of the Chicago River. Today, Ryerson is a services company that processes and distributes metals, with operations in the United States, Mexico, Canada and China. Ryerson is headquartered in Chicago and employs approximately 4.000 employees in more than 100 locations.

In 2003, Ryerson started the Goldsboro facility in Pikeville, serving fabrication needs throughout North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia. Inventories include plate, sheet, rod, bar and tubing in aluminum, stainless, and carbon steel. Besides being known as a metal distributor, the Goldsboro facility invested in new equipment on the processing side to meet customer demands.

David Long: “Our ultimate goal is for our customers to receive the parts and put them right into their assembly or finished parts.”

One of the investments is the Voortman V330 plate processing machine. It consists of a separate drilling and cutting table, each provided with its own independent moving gantry for simultaneously drilling and cutting. To be even more versatile, Ryerson requested cross transports to feed the drilling table. The operator can load up to four plates and transport one plate to the table and start the drilling process.

David Long: “This machine basically is a U-cell for an operator. You can burn, drill and load his table at the same time.”

To be more efficient in house, Ryerson wondered: “What orders can we nest together on a plate?” With the use of Voortman’s burning capabilities, Ryerson nests plasma orders and oxy orders on the V330 to process at the same time.
