Pillar drill, radial drill or boring mill?
Pillar and pedestal drills are the workhorses of the workshop: simple, robust, and inexpensive to maintain. Radial drills with a swiveling arm allow for the machining of large and heavy workpieces without reclamping—a significant time saving in steel and plant engineering. Finally, drilling and milling machines are designed for workpieces that no longer fit on any machining center and offer milling and boring operations in addition to drilling.
What you should pay attention to
- Maximum drilling diameter in steel
- Throat and spindle stroke
- Tool holder (Morse taper, SK) and speed range
- Feed types: Manual, automatic, programmable
- Condition of spindle, quill and column or arm
- Table size, groove pattern and permissible workpiece dimensions
Robust technology with a long service life
Drilling machines have a relatively simple mechanical design, making them exceptionally durable. A well-maintained radial drilling machine from the 1980s still works as reliably today as it did on day one—provided the spindle bearings and clamping mechanisms are in good working order. We pay close attention to these details during inspections. For many businesses, buying used is not only more economical but simply the better solution, as comparably heavy-duty models are rarely offered new anymore.
For smaller workpieces and pure milling work, it is worth taking a look at our used Milling machines, and for rotational parts at our Lathes.
