ARBOGA GM2508 UPRIGHT DRILL PRESS

Technical Description

The ARBOGA GM2508 is a heavy-duty upright drill press engineered for precision drilling, broaching, tapping, and milling operations. This Swedish-made machine features an 18-inch swing capacity with a robust 1.75 horsepower motor powered by 220 volts, 3-phase, 60 Hz electrical supply. The drill head incorporates both manual and power quill feed capabilities, with 4.5 inches of power quill travel and adjustable feed speeds ranging from 0.1 to 0.3 IPM for controlled boring operations. The #3 Morse spindle taper accommodates a standard Jacobs drill chuck and offers eight spindle speed ranges spanning 125 to 3,480 RPM for versatile material compatibility. The machine's rigid cast iron construction supports a substantial 950-pound weight distributed across a 35" x 37" x 65" H footprint. The working table measures 22-1/2" x 34-1/2" with an overall table size of 25-3/4" x 37-1/2", providing ample work surface for various component sizes. With an 8.75-inch throat depth and maximum spindle-to-table distance of 20 inches, this drill press accommodates mid-sized workpieces efficiently. The adjustable-height work table and head assembly enable operator flexibility, while the reversing motor capability facilitates tapping operations. The machine's geared head design delivers consistent torque across speed ranges, making it ideal for both production environments and precision job-shop applications requiring reliable performance and dimensional accuracy.
