Applications and Experiments for the Pillar Drill Machine
The pillar drill is used for accurate drilling, boring and tapping of workpieces too large or too heavy for a bench drill. In training it teaches speed and feed selection, work holding, centre drilling and tapping, and it serves the fitting and fabrication jobs that follow welding and cutting.
- ITI Fitter, Machinist and Welder trades: drilling and tapping exercises, with the job held in a Drilling Machine Vice.
- Diploma and B.Tech machine-shop practice: speed, feed and cutting-parameter studies, including thrust and torque measurement with the Drilling Tool dynamometer.
- TVET fabrication modules: drilling brackets, flanges and plates, with holes finished using a Round File.
Standard Scope of Supply
The Pillar Drill Machine is supplied as a single unit in the capacity you select, as described above. Drill chucks, drill bits, vices and other optional accessories can be added and, where needed, appear as separate lines on the quotation.
