Features

  • Drill presses use a vertical drill head mounted to a base for stability and consistent alignment, resulting in more uniform holes than handheld drills.
  • They are lightweight and have a magnetic base that adheres to ferrous metal surfaces.
  • They use annular cutters or bits to drill holes in structural steel, I-beams, pipes and metal workpieces that are either fixed in place or too large to transport to a stationary drill press.
  • Stationary drilling machines are attached to a benchtop or the floor. They drill into wooden or metal workpieces supported by a table beneath the drill head.

Working Mechanism

  • These drill presses comprise a head-like structure and a motor mounted on the column.
  • The column comes with a table that can be moved up and down, as well as tilted for angled holes. These movements can be achieved by rotating a set of three-sided handles.
  • The head features an On/Off switch and an arbour (spindle) attached with the drill chuck to move the workpiece.
  • The material is placed on the table and clamped or held in place by hand.
  • The table is then raised to the bit that has been inserted into the drill chuck.
  • The turning bit's speed is controlled by a series of step belts in the head.
  • Turn it On and slowly pull one of the handles forward and down to feed the bit into the material when you're ready to drill.
  • The amount of pressure used is determined by the material being drilled. Steel, for example, requires more pressure than wood.
  • When drilling with a sharp bit, you should see shavings rather than dust coming out of the hole.
  • When drilling metal, shavings that come out in one long spiral indicate that you're using the proper amount of pressure.

Frequently Asked Questions

What points should be considered when choosing a drill press?

  • Type: There are two main types of drill presses - bench top and stationary. Benchtop models are smaller, lighter and easier to transport. Stationary / floor models are heavier and more difficult to transport, but they have more power, capacity and features.
  • Size: There are two major dimensions to consider - swing and spindle travel. Swing is calculated by multiplying the distance between the machine's central column and the spindle by 2. If you want to bore to the centre of a workpiece, this determines the maximum width of the material you can fit on your drill press. Spindle travel refers to how far your drill press can travel downward as you turn the handle.
  • Power.
  • Speed: For efficient drilling, most drill presses have variable rotation speeds.

Why use a drill press instead of a drill?

  • Drill presses are designed to be precise, as opposed to handheld drills, which rely on arm strength and the operator's steadiness to drill an accurate & clean hole.
  • Drill presses ensure that the bit is perfectly perpendicular to the material, eliminating crooked holes.

Are different drill presses used for wood and metal?

Yes. Drill presses for metallic workpieces typically spin bits at low speeds with high torque, whereas presses for wooden workpieces spin bits at high speeds with low torque.
