DAKE SB-25V UPRIGHT DRILL PRESS

Technical Description

The Dake SB-25V is a floor model upright drill press engineered for precision drilling operations in machine shops and fabrication facilities. This variable-speed unit features an 18-inch working diameter swing with a 1-inch drill capacity, accommodating a wide range of workpiece sizes and drilling requirements. Powered by a robust 2 HP, 120V single-phase motor, the drill press delivers variable spindle speeds ranging from 46 to 3,550 RPM, enabling optimal performance across diverse materials and bit sizes. The spindle utilizes an MT3 taper with a 5/8-inch keyed chuck for secure bit retention. The rigid construction incorporates a massive cast head and machined column that minimize vibration and chatter during operation, supported by a sturdy cast base measuring 15 inches by 23-5/8 inches. The spindle features four bearing points for smooth, precise rotation and provides 5 inches of travel for depth control. The precision-machined work table measures 13-3/4 inches square with T-slots for fixture mounting, positioned at 28-3/8 inches from the spindle. Advanced technology includes frequency inverter-driven variable speed adjustment with an LED indicator for real-time speed monitoring, allowing operators to modify speeds during drilling operations. A forward and reverse selector switch facilitates tapping applications, while the locking handle hub provides dial-in depth adjustment with repeatable positioning. Manual spindle feed ensures operator control, and the unit includes a 5/8-inch drift and Plexiglas chip guard as standard equipment. At 397 pounds and 71 inches tall, this drill press combines precision engineering with practical shop floor functionality.
