VARIABLE FREQUENCY DRIVE INVERTER TRANSMISSION ENSURES ALL POWER IS TRANSFERRED DIRECTLY FROM THE MOTOR TO THE SPINDLE FOR CONSISTENT POWER & HIGH TORQUE DRILLING EVEN AT LOWER SPEEDS

• An easy-to-operate infinitely variable dial on the headstock allows operators to gain full control of the drilling speed range (65rpm - 2000rpm). This means the spindle speed can be precisely set to suit the material being drilled, resulting in a clean and accurate drill holes up to 40mm max. diameter.
• The inverter drive transmission also eliminates manual pulley speed changes, meaning operators can set-up jobs and perform changeovers more quickly, helping to reduce downtime and boost workshop productivity.
• Fitted with a heavy-duty drill chuck and compatible with MT4 (Morse Taper 4), this heavy-duty configuration will withstand the forces and vibrations of professional drilling and maintain operator safety.
• The tapping functionality produces clean and high-quality screw thread to a max. ⌀ 25mm diameter. Perfect for professional users, this ensures strong and reliable connection for fasteners that won't crossthread.
• A recirculating coolant system (45w motor) maintains optimal drilling conditions by reducing the amount of heat generated in the workpiece. This also prevents the drill from dulling or breaking, making it ideal for harder materials like stainless steel and cast iron which generate more heat.
• A depth stop is also fitted which eliminates guesswork and ensures consistent holes of the same depth are drilled during repetitive tasks.
• Suitable for drilling ferrous and non-ferrous metals including mild steel, aluminium, copper, brass, stainless steel, cast iron and wrought iron.

HEAVY-DUTY COMPONENTS IDEAL FOR CONTINUOUS USE IN PRODUCTION & ASSEMBLY ENVIRONMENTS

• A thick central column and heavy baseplate help to minimise vibration for stability, helping maintain precise and accurate drilling. The baseplate should be anchored to the ground to maximise stability.
• A large height-adjustable drill press table (560mm L x 475mm D) offers added versatility for handling materials and assemblies of different thicknesses and heights. This can also rotate left to right offering additional clearance for drilling longer or awkwardly-shaped workpieces.
• The base drill table also enables drilling of taller workpieces, assemblies and fabrications.
• For flexibility, the height-adjustable drill head offers further clearance helping operators reach optimal working height.
• The chrome steel drill feed handle ensures operators can safely and accurately control the descent of the drill bit into the workpiece for consistent and high-quality drill holes.

INTEGRATED ENHANCED SAFETY FEATURES DESIGNED TO ACTIVELY PROTECT OPERATORS FOR SECURE WORKING ENVIRONMENT

• For added safety a protective chuck guard shields users from swarf and debris when drilling. This also disables the drill from operating when opened.
• A low voltage (24v) control circuit minimises electric shock which limits harm to machine operators.
• An interlocking safety switch prevents the drill from running when the headstock covers are opened.
