Technical Description

The OPTIMUM B 30 VGM is a heavy-duty upright drill press engineered for precision metalworking applications. This machine features a 30.71-inch swing capacity with the ability to drill through mild steel up to 1.18 inches in diameter. Powered by a 3.4 HP motor operating at speeds up to 3,000 RPM, the B 30 VGM delivers substantial cutting force for demanding industrial tasks. The drill press is equipped with a quick-action drill chuck accommodating 0-16 mm shanks and features an MT 3 Morse taper spindle for versatile tool compatibility. Superior spindle accuracy of better than 0.03 mm runout, achieved through precision ball bearings, ensures consistently precise hole drilling. The machine incorporates a 4-7/8 inch spindle travel with sophisticated three-stage gear selection providing variable speed control across three distinct RPM ranges. The work table measures 15-3/4 x 19-11/16 inches and offers exceptional flexibility with ±45° inclination and 360° rotation capabilities, enabling angled and contoured drilling operations. Two T-slots accommodate standard clamping fixtures for secure workpiece positioning. The robust 92 mm column diameter provides maximum stability and rigidity, with a maximum spindle-to-base distance of 1,170 mm. The base footprint measures 16-5/8 x 25-3/8 inches, weighing 672.4 pounds for floor stability. Electrical specifications include 400V three-phase 50 Hz operation with a 1.1 kW motor rating, though 60 Hz single-phase variants are also available.
