In this video, the PythonX structural steel fabrication system produces the following features on a W16x31 structural beam in a single pass:

* Front Trim Miter Cut 1/4 inch
* 2 Copes on the front of the beam
* 3 Bolt Holes at front of beam
* 6 bolt hole angled cluster on web
* 4 layout marks on web
* 2 bolt holes on top flange
* 2 bolt holes on bottom flange
* 3 slots on web at rear of beam
* Piece Mark - 2 Lines - 9 letters total
* flange notch cut flush with web (both sides)
* Cope on rear of beam
* Notch cut on flange

Total Processing Time - 10 min 13 seconds

Structural steel fabricators who examined the beam design suggested that performing this fabrication using traditional manual methods would take roughly 120 minutes. Using a CNC drill line and bandsaw, plus manual torch for the copes and flange flush cuts, would take approximately 82 minutes (this does not include time for moving the beam between operations), therefore, PythonX completed the beam fabrication in less than 12% of the time expected for a shop using conventional automated equipment.

The PythonX Structural Fabrication System is the first system that was designed to utilize ALL the features available from detailing software not just some of the data. This includes coping data, bevel angles, layout marks, bolt hole positions, reference points and part marking which other machines don’t use. No programming of the cuts was required.

The PythonX robotic structural steel fabrication system is built and sold by Burlington Automation Corporation. See www.pythonx.com for details or contact:
