The spindle features a Morse Taper No. 2, 3 1/8 inches of travel, and is supported by four bearing points for smooth, rigid operation. The machine’s massive cast head, machined column, and sturdy cast base minimize vibration, while the locking handle hub with dial-in adjustment allows for fast, accurate, and repeatable depth setting changes. The table measures 11 3/4 x 11 3/4 inches with machined surfaces and t-slots for secure fixturing, and the spindle-to-table distance is adjustable up to 28 1/2 inches, with a spindle-to-base clearance of 49 1/4 inches.

The drill press features a three-spoke handle with spring return for ergonomic control, quick-release belt tensioning for easy speed changes, and a CE safety electrical package with push-button on/off, emergency stop, low-voltage controls, thermal overload protection, and an interlock safety switch. The DAKE SB-16 comes with a one-year manufacturer’s warranty.
