Drilling machines are a crucial part of many workshops and industrial environments. They are used to create holes in various materials, which is necessary for a wide range of applications. In this article, we will explore the different types of drilling machines, what to consider when buying a drilling machine, and how to use a drilling machine safely.
There are several different types of drilling machines available, each designed for specific applications and materials. Here is a brief overview of the most common types of drilling machines:
Pillar drilling machines are the most common type of drilling machine and are used for general purposes. They have an upright pillar that supports the head and the drill, making them stable and precise. Pillar drilling machines are suitable for drilling holes in wood, metal, and plastic.
Bench drilling machines are smaller and more portable than pillar drilling machines. They are designed to be mounted on a workbench and are ideal for smaller projects. They are usually less powerful than pillar drilling machines and are suitable for drilling diameters up to 13 mm.
Radial drilling machines are used for drilling large holes in heavy materials. They have a horizontal arm that extends from the pillar, allowing the head to be adjusted laterally and the drill head to move up and down along the pillar. Radial drilling machines are typically large and powerful and are used for drilling in metal, wood, and stone.
Magnetic drilling machines are designed for drilling holes in confined spaces. They have a magnetic base that adheres to the surface of the material to be drilled, providing extra stability. Magnetic drilling machines are often used in the pipe industry to drill holes in pipes and plates.
Universal drilling machines are specialized drilling machines that can be used to drill holes in a variety of materials and at different angles. They have an adjustable table and the drill can be adjusted in multiple dimensions. Universal drilling machines are usually expensive and primarily used in the industry.
When buying a drilling machine, it is important to consider several factors. Here are some things to consider before purchasing a drilling machine:
The first thing to consider is what you will be using the drilling machine for. If you will only be drilling in wood and plastic, a smaller and more portable bench drilling machine will suffice. However, if you need to drill into heavy materials such as metal and stone, you will need a larger and more powerful machine like a radial drilling machine or a pillar drilling machine.
