OUR NEW DRILLING MACHINE RANGE

Pillar Drills (Floor-Standing) — For workshops needing a reliable, fixed-column drill press for regular metalworking and fabrication use. Variable spindle speeds, adjustable table height, and strong column rigidity for accurate, repeatable drilling.
Bench Drills — Compact, bench-mounted units suited to smaller workshops or secondary drilling operations where floor space is limited.
Radial Arm Drills — Feature a movable arm that swings over the workpiece, allowing drilling at multiple positions without repositioning heavy or awkward components. Ideal for larger plate, structural steel, and mould-work applications.

Call Billy on 086 2509747 to discuss spindle travel, table size, and speed range for your specific material and hole-size requirements.

WHO NEEDS A DRILLING MACHINE?

Drilling machines are one of the most fundamental tools in any engineering or fabrication environment. They're essential for:

Engineering workshops — accurate hole drilling in steel, aluminium, and other metals.
Fabrication shops — pilot holes, clearance holes, and tapping preparation in structural sections.
Maintenance departments — general-purpose drilling for plant maintenance and repair tasks.
Toolrooms — precision drilling as part of jig, fixture, and die work.
Agricultural engineering — drilling in heavy plate and structural sections.
Educational institutions — reliable, safe, and easy-to-operate machines for training environments.

DELIVERY, DEMONSTRATION & FINANCE

All new drilling machines are available for in-person testing at our Longford facility by appointment.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS - DRILLING MACHINES (FAQS)

Q: What's the difference between a pillar drill and a radial arm drill? A: A pillar drill has a fixed column — you move the workpiece to align it under the spindle. A radial arm drill has a movable arm that swings and extends over the table, allowing the drill head to be positioned over the workpiece — more practical for heavy or large components you can't easily reposition.

Q: What spindle taper do your new pillar drills use? A: This varies by model. Most floor-standing industrial pillar drills use Morse Taper (MT2 or MT3). Confirm the taper when ordering if you need to use existing tooling.

Q: Can the machines be tested before delivery? A: Yes — visit our Longford showroom by prior appointment to see machines under power.

Q: Do you supply drilling machine accessories? A: Yes. We stock a range of accessories including drill chucks, arbors, and machine vices. Ask Billy when ordering.
