VOORTMAN'S UNIQUE MEASURING ROLLER SYSTEM
The V807 was designed to make production as accurate, repeatable, and efficient as possible with a minimalist design. Everything is inside, so it takes up a small footprint. This makes you utilize space with optimal efficiency in your workshop. And there are even more advantages:
NO EXTRA SPACE RECQUIRED FOR MEASURING TRUCKS
This means a smaller overall design as there’s no need for extra space to park a measuring truck. The machine houses the entire measuring and clamping unit, which also makes it an easy fit into your existing setup or outdoor placement.
ELIMINATES THE NEED FOR A MEASURING TRUCK TO CONSTANTLY RETURN TO ITS PARKING POSITION
This makes early infeed of profiles possible, which can greatly increase production and output.
UNLIMITED PROFILE LENGTHS
We are the only company that allows you to work with unlimited lengths yet with high accuracy. Process up to 33,000 pounds or 15.000 kilograms. With Voortman’s unique measuring roller / pinch roll system, you have no limits.
REPEATABILITY, REPEATABILITY AND REPEATABILITY
Slow and inaccurate measurements are to be avoided. Where inefficiencies play a big role with measuring trucks, there are often manual operations needed to get laser measurement workable.
We chose to equip the V807 with a measuring roller system. This system runs in tandem with the profile of your product and thanks to our hydraulic clamping system’s tremendous pressure, there’s minimal chance of slippage. This is what you need for consistent quality in your production. If you want to apply consistency in your production, regardless of which shift or operator, this is the machine you must have!
PRODUCE SMARTER
USE OUR BUILT-IN INTELLIGENCE
Of course, you want as much continuity as possible in your processes, but you may be dependent on the knowledge of your operators. That is why we have automated as many advanced processes as possible and also built in many smart features that provide your operators with continuity. All features can be accessed with just one action in the VACAM interface on a clear 24" touch panel. All software features and functionalities are fully included in the supplied VACAM control software.

AUTOMATIC TOOL PROPOSAL
CALIBRATING THE ROBOT
IMPROVED EFFICIENCY WITH STITCHING
Processing heavy profiles in shorter lengths can be a real challenge. That’s why our Stitching feature ensures that all end products below 1.4 meters automatically get outfed as a whole. This means that instead of having to go into the machine several times to remove heavy products, your operator only has to unload a single profile. The end products can then be separated at a preferred location, minimizing logistic operations and maximizing efficiency.
With VACAM, batch processing is made easy. Our system scans through the products, grouping shorter products together starting from the front of the batch. When a group’s total length exceeds the maximum length for stitching, the group is closed, and a new group is started.
So, what does this mean for you? It means that you don’t have to tediously sort through your products by length anymore! You can just let VACAM do all the work for you so you can focus on more important things.
HARMONIC MOVEMENTS FOR CASTELLATION CUTTING
Introducing our groundbreaking smart castellation technology, transforming the castellation cutting process with an impressive 20% boost in speed compared to conventional methods. Our fast CPU allows for synchronized movements of multiple axes of both the profile and the robot, resulting in smooth and harmonic movements.
With our smart castellation process, you can work with unlimited lengths of material without the need for time consuming re-measuring and re-clamping. Next to the improved speed, you will experience a reduction in burn-ins, leading to a more precise and qualitative outcome. Our system's efficiency ensures faster processing, providing an overall improvement in productivity.
MINIMAL BURN INS AND PERFECT QUALITY WHEN CUTTING CASTELLATIONS
UP TO 20% FASTER
INTEGRATION IS SIMPLE
DSTV and DSTV+ (nesting) import and produce parts and nestings without any programming. VACAM also supports manual creation of optimal nestings based on single DSTV files and can even export these as DSTV+ macros to make the creation or editing from parts in VACAM and on the machine a lot easier.
Block-outs, flange removals, T-nestings, rat holes, seismic connections, castellated beams, bevels and more can be created with one mouse click. Macro’s even work in combination with DSTV import by automatic recognition of forms which can be optimized with a specific macro.

UP TO YOUR PRODUCTION
VERSATILITY IN ITS BEST FORM
WE MAKE MACHINES THAT CAN GROW WITH YOUR COMPANY
The Voortman V807 robotic thermal cutting machine is like all other machines delivered with the VACAM operating software, meaning all machines speak the same “language”. This makes the V807 incredibly versatile; it 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.
BUFFER MANAGEMENT
Automated infeed and outfeed with buffer management can significantly improve the efficiency and productivity of a system. When crosstransfers are added to the in- and outfeed, profiles are continuously buffered towards the datumline on the infeed. This results in higher throughput, giving operators the flexibility to allocate their time to other tasks.
AUTOMATED HANDLING
Cross transports, roller conveyors, product buffers, and material sensors facilitate smooth material movement, eliminating time-consuming operations and streamlining logistics. With raw materials entering the system and fully processed products exiting, these efficient processes optimize productivity and minimize delays.
EARLY INFEED
Introducing our profile detection capabilities that enable seamless transitions between profiles with our innovative early infeed feature. By having the next profile ready at the machine entrance while processing the current one, we save you valuable time.
CENTER OUTFEED
Profiles, irrespective of their length, are automatically aligned in the middle with a centered outfeed. Utilizing a forklift or crane simplifies the lifting process, consequently boosting efficiency and pace.
SECTIONAL OUTFEED
Organize and categorize your profiles with sectional outfeed. This efficient system separates your profiles into different sections based on length, weight, or project. Experience extended periods of autonomous production and enjoy a streamlined post-processing workflow.
UNMANNED PRODUCTION
Take control of all your Voortman machines with our VACAM software! Our user-friendly interface allows operators to effortlessly operate and switch between machines. The level of automation on the V807 promotes extended periods of unsupervised operation, thereby granting operators the freedom to devote their time to different tasks.
BE AMAZED BY ITS MODULARITY AND FLEXIBILITY
BUT WHAT DOES THIS AUTOMATION IMPLY FOR MY OPERATOR?
In a fully automated Voortman processing line, everything, from the V807 to its material handling, operates autonomously. Operators are not required to manually shift materials using joysticks. Instead, a combination of sensors and software communication can handle the tasks, ranging from loading the raw product to unloading the finished part on the outfeed. However, manual control remains an option, allowing operators to manually intervene when necessary.
Like all Voortman machines, the V807 comes equipped with the VACAM operating software, ensuring a universal "language" across all Voortman machines.
When running your V807 in a fully automated processing line, packed with high-quality hardware and intelligent software, a door opens to efficient production and intra-logistic processes. We call it Multi System Integration. Machines are seamlessly connected via our VACAM-software, cross transports, roller conveyors, product buffers and material sensors. Time-consuming material movements and bottlenecks are eliminated and complicated logistics are a thing of the past.
Raw lengths go on the infeed, and fully processed products come off the outfeed. Machines communicate with each other, and each machine is capable of producing unmanned for long periods of time, which enables a single operator to oversee several machines at once.
Simply let the system do the work and reap the benefits of Voortman's MSI and solutions.

A SHORTAGE OF SKILLED WORKERS?
LEARN ABOUT THE EFFICIENCY OF WELD-READY PROCESSES
REVOLUTIONIZING PRODUCTIVITY:
THE POWER OF V807 AND BLASTING POST-CUT
The V807 has proven to be a revolutionary addition for Cahill Structures. This machine, with its ability to perform the work equivalent to five or six men in a day, has allowed the company to maintain productivity levels even with a workforce of lesser experience. Jamie is considering extending the operation of this machine into a second shift, aiming to boost their daily production to a minimum of 35 tonnes.
Unlike blasting steel pre-cut, they have found blasting post-cut to be significantly more efficient. This method delivers ready-to-weld steel, saving invaluable time and resources. The process leaves no slag and requires minimal chipping off, as it has all been blasted off. This innovative approach not only optimizes operations but also ensures the highest quality of output. It eliminates the need for their top skilled workers to engage in the time-consuming task of removing slag, thereby allowing for optimal utilization of their skills. As James would say, this process brilliantly serves their purpose.
MAXIMUM SAFETY = MAXIMUM OUTPUT
SAFELY LOAD OR UNLOAD PROFILES WITHOUT ANY SYSTEM DOWNTIME
SAVE AND YET VERY EFFICIENT
Infeed and outfeed sections are equipped with double light curtains. This allows the operator to safely activate the first light curtain without stopping production at the machines or roller conveyors. The light curtain closest to the roller conveyor is only activated if the first light curtain is activated. Profile transport stops and remains on hold when both light curtains are activated in a zone. In a multi-zone system, other zones will continue to process and transport materials, reducing downtime to a minimum.
