Automatic batch loading for longer unmanned operation

The infeed cross transports can be fully loaded with angles for an automatic, continuous production flow. When production files are loaded the system automatically separates the first angle and moves it towards the roller conveyor. A powered system feeds material to the V505-160M while your operator can work on refilling the infeed cross transport or other tasks for a longer period of time when the machine is stocked with enough material buffered on the infeed side.

Fully automated material infeed

A powered material infeed system moves the angle forward and transfers it to the roller feed measuring system. This is a required unit in combination with the automatic infeed cross transport and automatic outfeed systems to make the entire system fully automated. Even in basic V505-160M configurations adding the powered material infeed system can simplify your operator’s tasks and improve labor efficiency.

Automatic smart product unloading

An automatic outfeed system can be added to the V505M punching and shearing machine to complete the fully automatic production cycle. The system has a liftable conveyor section for dropping short pieces behind the shear in a bin, and a motorized unit to release longer products from the machine on a tilting conveyor that can drop the parts in one of two outfeed positions.

Compact all-in-one frame

All machine parts are fixed on one heavy frame. This speeds up installation time and reduces the V505-160M footprint. The frame also provides first-class durability and reliability for all your angle and flat steel requirements.

Powerful hydraulics for rapid processing speeds

The V505M hydraulic system is optimized for high volume and maximum pressure and flow. It can punch and shear extremely fast.

Minimal manual tool changes

The V505-160M is equipped with two double punch units (one for each flange) and automatic punch selection, which prevents manual tool changes during production in most cases. This leads to higher productivity and less operator intervention.

Increased speed with hydraulic numbering

A hydraulic part numbering unit comes standard with the V505M. The 36-character circular disc can be rotated to stamp part numbers and letters for easier identification during further production.

Fast and versatile profile positioning

Voortman’s roller feed measuring system speeds up short movements in its angle machines – ideal for making clip angles. The V505-160M roller feed system can also process flat bars, adding another advantage to its already impressive capabilities.

Optimized shearing for better cut quality

The shear blades on Voortman’s angle lines can be rotated and used on 4 sides, each with a different radius to provide the best quality shear. Each corner of the shear can be used to cut a specific range of angle sizes, and the blade can be rotated with ease and locked quickly in the right position.
