Robotic Coping System

Robotic Coping System

The basic design of the Ficep coping systems feature a Cartesian robot that can position the torch to simply perform complex burning on all three planes of the structural steel member.  The six axis capability of the robot gives full beveling capability on both the flanges and the web without any manual setup.  The Cartesian design simplifies the programming software so even complex routines can be simply entered or downloaded from a CAD system.

Request Information
