The drill/coper tandem system has many advantages such as:

• Requires less than half the space of a conventional split system
• Smaller capital investment
• Single operator
• The drill operator no longer waits for the coper operator or vice versa
• Multi tasking software permits the coping of one section while drilling of a different size section.
• Positioning of the coper after the drill eliminates the minimum length finished part that can be off loaded on the exit side of the system.
• One common CNC control and software controls all of the functions of the coper and the drill automatically.
• The robot can be furnished with oxy-fuel and plasma torches to maximize the versatility and productivity
• Full robotic programmable motion for weld prep in both flanges and the web
• Optimized routines copes the trailing end of one section, leading end of the next section and cuts the sections to length in one optimized cycle
• Click to view video
• Local serviceability of the PC
• Low maintenance cost due to the utilization of a standard PC platform
• The Ficep software eliminates the requirement for additional hardware such as third party axis control boards, PLC hardware and encoder switching boards
• The Ficep PC based control is provided with the proprietary Ficep software for remote diagnostics through a phone or internet connection.
• Full single and compound miter cutting so the flange cuts accurately align with the web miter angle.
• Full integration of drilling, coping, end preparation, cut off and more!!!!
