Woodworkers, carpenters and hobbyists like the drill press because it offers more power and accuracy, allowing them to drill larger holes and work with tougher materials. Here’s what you should know to find the perfect drill press from Allwin power tools:
Sufficient Horsepower
First, you should consider drill press that is more than 1/2HP. For example, ALLWIN has a 2/3HP 12-inch drill press. This variable-speed drill press has plenty of power to handle almost anything you need it to do.
Swing Size
Swing size is the distance from the center of the chuck to the column times two, if you determine you’ll be drilling holes more than six inches from the edge of your workpieces, you will need to look at something larger than a 12-inch drill press.
Depth Stop
A depth stop is an essential feature if you are going to be drilling several holes at the same depth. For example, if you need to drill 12 holes and all of them must be 2” deep, the depth stop will ensure that all twelve holes will be the same 2” depth.
Stroke Distance
Stroke distance is often referred to spindle travel, and it measures the maximum depth a spindle, drill chuck and drill bit can travel as the operator rotates the feed handle without moving the table up.
Digital Readout
A digital readout on a drill press is a helpful feature that displays the running speed and eliminates guessing your RPMs.
Choose a Drill Chuck With a Large Capacity and a Chuck Key
If you intend to drill relatively large diameters, it’s more secure to tighten the chuck with a wrench or chuck key.
Work table
You’ll want a work table you can adjust up or down depending on the size of the workpiece and the depth of the drilled holes.
