VOORTMAN V808
Robotic profile cutting up to 1.250 mm (50″) width
The Voortman V808 is the most versatile and market leading robotic thermal cutting machine with 8-axis for processing wide profiles with a operating width up to 1.250 mm (50″). The extreme flexibility of the robot combined with the machine structure enables the machine to cut every 3D shape possible and mark all four sides of your material. This system allows for enormous freedom to design and produce structures with the most complex connections and copes, but also a significant increase in production speed. Copes, bolt holes, slots, notches, bevels, weld preparation and layout marking – The Voortman V808 does it all!

Processing versatility for wide beams up to 1.250 (50″)
THE V808 DOES IT ALL!
With greater versatility comes greater economic advantages. Robotic plasma processing offers fabricators hard-to-beat cost savings over separate solutions for drilling, milling, sawing, punching, shearing and marking. Combining all of these processes in one machine saves you the financial investment of needing multiple machines with individual functions.

CUTS ALL KINDS OF SHAPES AND LAYOUT MARKING ON ALL 4 SIDES
The V808 robotic profile processor is capable of processing nearly any kind of shape that needs to be produced in profile widths up to 1.250 mm (50″). When this profile width is not common in your production, our newest coping robot, the Voortman V807 often suffices for processing profile widths up to 1.050 mm (42″). Rat holes, seismic structural design connections (like slotted web and “dog bone” cuts), copes at the start or end of a product, block outs, holes in every size and shape, weld preparations and marking on all 4 sides are just some examples of possible cuts the V808’s robot can process thermally.

Fast profile measuring
The Voortman V808 robotic thermal cutting machine is equipped with the new faster and more accurate versatile Panasonic TL-1800G3 coping robot. The torch nozzle of the robot is fitted with a measuring sensor to measure the exact profile dimensions. During the cutting process the difference between actual and theoretical dimensions are automatically compensated in the machine parameters to ensure the most accurate product possible. To speed up the process even more, the coping robot only measuring the sides of the profile that will actually be processed.

The V808 does it all!
Rat holes, seismic structural design connections (jay-allan and dog bone connections), copes at the lead or trail end of a product, block outs, holes in any size and shape, weld preparations, marking on all four sides, and more! Since the Voortman V808 can process all four sides of the material with only one robot it is the most versatile machine on the market. All cuts and profiles as seen in the video can be done without manual programming in the software.

Coping / 3D Plasma cutting
The most versatile application process in most cases is coping and the machine capable of being as close to a “all-in-one” solution as possible is a robotic plasma processor. Rat holes, seismic structural design connections like jay-allan and “dog bone” cuts, copes at the lead or trail end of a product, block outs, holes in any size, weld preparations, marking on all sides – all are possible to process with a plasma unit and a robot.

Fully automatic profile transportation
Full automatic profile transportation is provided in order to integrate the machine to a fully automatic MSI beam line. Our/The VACAM software controls the sensored drag-dogs or liftables, transporting profiles onto the infeed roller conveyor and from the outfeed roller conveyor. Selected products will automatically be produced out of the trading lengths. The cross-transports are able to handle multiple profiles, allowing the machine to operate autonomously for a considerable amount of time.

Automatic material handling
One push of the button is all it takes to get your production done. After importing industry standard DSTV or DSTV+ (pre-nested) files into the processing list of our VACAM Software, your operator can fully focus on loading and unloading the system. No manual intervention is needed in order to keep up with the production speed of the machines.

The Voortman V808 robotic thermal cutting machine as all other machines is delivered with the VACAM operating software, this means all machines talk the same “language”. This makes the V808 incredibly versatile and can be part of a complete new layout including roller conveyors and cross-transports connected to other Voortman processing machines, or as a stand-alone processing center.

We’ll work with you to come up with a solution for any situation you face – including implementation into an existing production line, or outside loading and roller conveyors. The roller-feed measuring system is completely integrated in the machine housing and offers complete freedom for planning and expansion in your workshop. You can start with a small layout and easily extend the machine with more automated logistics or add complementary machines at a later time as your business grows. Voortman makes machines that can grow with your company seamlessly when extra capacity is needed without increasing labor costs.
