Four side layout marking – less man hours and no errors

The Voortman V704 marks all four sides of the product in one pass, saving time and costs in the assembly area of your workshop. The machine can indicate product numbers, contours, welding information and detailed part numbers for plates and angles that will be welded to the profile. The marking tool has minimal maintenance required because the tool is driven by compressed air. Carbide tips are quick and easy to replace.

Fast profile measuring

The V704 is equipped with the Voortman roller feed system, which measures and clamps profiles securely for the highest accuracy and fastest throughput in the market. Profiles are securely clamped prior to processing with two driven and two pressure rolls with large contact area. The two measuring discs keep an accurate position of your profile while moving it through the system at top speed. You can significantly reduce waiting time since profiles only need to be clamped once.

Better precision and increased productivity

Every profile and product is measured and the position is tracked and maintained throughout processing with the roller feed measurement system in the V704. Marks are placed in exactly the right position as determined in the DSTV file or the file in VACAM software. Measuring is faster and more precise with the V704 than the manual process. Your entire workshop’s productivity increases because the V704 can mark faster than a person can.

Seamless integration with other machines

The V704 layout marking machine integrates seamlessly in a fully automated production line. Processing steps can be split up between multiple machines connected in the production line and positioned correctly so the finished product is output exactly according to its specifications.

Marks visible after blasting and painting

The Voortman V704 layout marking machines creates high quality, accurate and clearly visible marks with one of its multiple scribing tools. Marking by milling is beneficial because the marks remain visible even after shotblasting, painting or galvanizing. Products are easily recognizable in downstream production steps, and welders don’t need to make any additional marks before continuing. Marking depth can be adjusted with the Voortman marking tool.

High quality marks

The V704 is a robust machine made with high-quality components, enabling you to carry out processes with impressive stability. This results in lower tolerances and higher quality layout marks and finished products. Voortman uses well-known established brands like Siemens and Bosch. Components are industry-standard and made to have a long lifetime, but if they break down spare parts are widely available from Voortman.

Full and partial contour marking

The Voortman V704 layout marking machine can mark both full contours and partial contours for easy welding in your workshop. Full contours can be converted to partial contours with VACAM software that comes with the machine.

Processes all 3D shapes

The V704 can process all sorts of structural steel products. I-beams, H-beams, channels, flat bar, angle iron, T-bar, square tubes and rectangular tubes can all have their layouts marked by the V704. Processing is carried out without manual software programming, saving you a lot of time preparing the machine before running production. Various features allow the V704 to handle small profiles, allowing you to perform more operations automatically, and reducing the labor costs and lead times of completing your projects.
