CLAUSING (1) 2282-300 UPRIGHT DRILL PRESS

Technical Description

The Clausing 2282-300 Upright Drill Press is a heavy-duty, production-rated machine designed for precision drilling with a 1.5 hp, 3-phase motor running at 1725 rpm. It offers a maximum drilling capacity of 0.75 inches in mild steel and up to 1.00 inch or 1.125 inches in cast iron, supported by a 3 Morse Taper (3MT) spindle nose. Spindle speeds range up to 2,000 RPM, achieved via variable speed sheave pulley drive, enabling fine control over machining conditions. The machine features a robust 4-inch diameter column and a spindle travel of 6.5 inches, with a maximum spindle-to-base clearance of 25.43 inches, allowing accommodation of larger workpieces. The drill press is equipped with a large, adjustable work table approximately 22 inches in diameter, featuring three T-slots on 9-inch centers, providing versatile mounting options. The quill delivers a maximum force of 1,250 lbs for consistent feed pressure. The machine dimensions are roughly 20-22 inches wide, about 36 inches deep, and a height ranging from 51.6 to 69 inches depending on configuration. Additional features include an optional power feed, spindle reversing switch for tapping and reverse drilling, thermomagnetic switch with emergency stop, adjustable depth stops, and optional automatic tool ejector. Safety elements include a drill guard with a microswitch and a work light. Electrical operation is flexible, supporting 220/230 volts at 50/60 Hz, single or three-phase power. The Clausing 2282-300 offers precise hole depth accuracy to ±0.001 inch and supports up to 1,400 pecks per hole with adjustable step increments from 0.001" to 6.4", suitable for high-precision industrial applications.
