The summary below gives a quick insight into the machine design and performance. For more details, follow the navigation at the left.

Machine Design

The Ocean Liberator features a rigid heavy duty frame welded frame that easily mates to a variety of automatic or manual in-feed and out-feed conveyors.

This solid frame provides the rigid platform from which the fully articulated 5-axis torch is driven, ensuring accurate and repeatable copes and cuts in a variety of profiles.

The torch uses a 5-axis fully articulated cutting torch, which allows it to cut from any angle in any surface, easily allowing bevel cuts in both the web and the flanges, something that more expensive multi-head machines are unable to do.

The coping machine is equipped with a heavy-duty automatic igniter for simple automatic ignition with 2 igniting electrodes

A handheld remote pendant allows fine-tuning of the cutting gap and travel speed, and provides the operator freedom of movement during cutting

Beam Coping Performance

This supremely versatile machine allows coping and cutting of

• Beams

• Channel

• Angle

• Plate

• Tube

The Liberator cuts steel fast, cutting at speeds of up to 22 inches per minute depending on material thickness and hardness, type of gas, flame adjustments, and other factors, and has a fast positioning speed of up to 100 feet per minute.

Programming your Beam Coping Machine

The cut pattern may be selected from standard "canned" routines or may be custom designed to your specific application and requirement. A fully functional CAD design system is included with the machine.

This software features a fully programmable macro library can be saved for later usage and allows fast and simple editing of profiles and cuts.

Most importantly, the software is very user-friendly and is easily integrated into any structural steel shop!

A robust yet inexpensive off-the-shelf PC provides the computing brain power and ensures maximum up time. 

The software is seamlessly compatible with most DSTV (*.NC1) format CAD detailing programs for easy downloading.
