Drilling system V600

The V600 drilling system with a horizontal servo-controlled drilling unit that is suitable for structural steel fabricators with a limited floor space. The operator loads the drilling table with several profiles behind each other, after which the horizontal drilling unit provides one or more profiles with the programmed hole pattern.

By drilling holes through both flanges/sides or by rotating a profile it is possible to drill the material on all sides. Besides drilling the machine can also carry out thread tapping. A vertical hydraulic clamp, which clamps the product to the table during drilling, is fixed at the front of the drilling cabin. For tool changing, the drilling unit is provided with an automatic tool changer.

After replacing a drill the length of the new tool is automatically measured and before starting the drilling process the web and flange height will be measured automatically. The holes in the flanges can be positioned with regard to the centre of the measured flange height or the actual web height.
