The FlexBeam profile drilling center is developed for fast, accurate & economic production of steel profiles. The machine is equipped with the latest generation industrial PC-control, servodrivers & servomotors produced by OMRON.

Is the FlexBeam Right for My Shop? 
  • – Do you drill or mill holes in a variety of steel profiles?
  • – Are you looking for a faster and cheaper way to do it?
  • – Do you currently have to lay out hole positions and then produce the holes with a mag drill, punch, or plasma?
  • – Are you interested in a machine that can drill, mill, and scribe/engrave?
  • – Do you have to turn away jobs because you cannot process the larger and heavier profiles?
  • – Are you struggling to land steel fabricating jobs in your market? 
  • – Would you like to take on larger jobs?
  • – Do you want to make a more significant profit?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, the FlexBeam may be just right for you. If you are interested in taking on larger jobs and making more money, request more information below.

Auto Stand-Off – This is currently defined to be surface stand-off and not to be confused with vector stand-off in 5-axis mode. The current auto stand-off is based on a changing surface and will adjust vertically based on the angle of the “A” Axis, so there is five (5) axis taken into account during the calculations, but this is not the same as the tool vector stand-off. There is the ability to do the vector stand-off change while the machine is running manually with buttons on the screen.

Z-Reader Probe – The Z-Reader is a device for mapping the location of the surface. It can be controlled manually & programmatically. The option is NOT active while cutting & is retracted out of harm’s way. It can be triggered to verify the surface at every pierce before the cutting process starts, or it could be used to drive surface mapping of the whole part before cutting starts. It begins with initialization or zeroing of the device to the surface at the beginning of a program and then accumulates or tracks the difference from that zeroing effort.

Automatic Edge Finder – The edge finder is or can be utilized manually (Jogging Method & Screen Buttons), programmatically (M & G codes), or fully automatic routine (dedicated program). This option sets offsets & program rotation to match the orientation & location on the cutting table.

AC Unit Installed on Electrical Cabinet – The unit is mounted on the cabinet’s High Power (480v) side. It is close to the location where the drives are mounted. This option keeps the cabinet temperature stable and allows heat dissipation faster. The servo drives for all axes are the most significant contributors to heat inside the electrical cabinet.

5-Axis Renishaw Calibration – The calibration unit is a Renishaw model APCA45 with a modified spherical stylus. The device has a retractable cover and air purge to clear debris & dust during the activation process. It mounts to a swing arm controlled by a pneumatic rotary, so it is out of the way during regular operation and swings into the calibration position for calibration only.
