The Axminster Professional AP25FDMS Variable Floor Pillar Drill is a robust, high performance solution designed for workshops that demand strength, precision, and versatility. It's ideal for small to medium sized professional workshops or serious home workshops requiring heavier duty capability.
Powered by a 1.1 kW motor with variable speed drive, it delivers smooth, precise drilling across two belt speed settings: 180 - 600rpm and 580 - 2,000rpm. Speed can be easily fine tuned to suit different materials and cutter sizes for greater efficiency, improved tool life, and the confidence to take on larger, more demanding jobs, all while maintaining accuracy and control.
Built for stability, the machine features a heavy duty cast iron head, table, and base, supported by an 80 mm column to create a rigid platform under load. The large cast iron table, with smooth rack and pinion height adjustment, provides excellent support and easy positioning for both small and large workpieces. The table also tilts to 45
With 150 mm of spindle travel and a generous 430 mm swing, it offers significant capacity for various sized materials, allowing deeper drilling in a single pass. An adjustable depth stop ensures fast, accurate, and repeatable results, while the integrated LED work light clearly illuminates the cutting area for improved visibility during longer or more precise tasks.
Ideal for small to medium professional workshops, or serious home users, the AP25FDMS Variable Speed Floor Pillar Drill is an excellent step up from lower grade models and delivers the performance, reliability, and ease of use needed for frequent, demanding work. It offers professional capability without moving to industrial grade prices.
