Cantek 2HP Horizontal Boring Machine BM301

Description

Whether you are drilling horizontal holes for door or furniture components, the Cantek BM301 Horizontal Boring Machine is a great choice. With its two spindle drilling head with adjustable drill centers from 0.71”~3.93” centers (18~100mm), you can conveniently drill dowel holes with ease. The drilling assembly and table are made from cast iron for maximum rigidity and durability. The unit is mounted to a fabricated steel base for optimal functionality. The drilling cycle is controlled by a pneumatic cylinder and is actuated by a foot pedal for operator convenience. The drilling speed is adjustable for optimal cycle speeds. The drilling head is driven by a powerful 2HP direct drive motor. A pneumatic clamp ensures the work piece is held firmly during drilling operations.

Why Cantek BM301 Horizontal Boring Machine?

• Automatic pneumatic drilling cycle actuated by convenient foot pedal
• Pneumatic clamp holds material firmly in place during drilling cycle
• Adjustable drilling bit center to center spacing from: 71”~3.93” centers (18~100mm)
• Industrial cast iron drilling assembly & table, with fabricated steel base

Features

• Industrial Design
  • The BM301 has a cast iron upper drill assembly and worktable. The cast iron has vibration damping properties to ensure optimal drilling quality and promotes machine longevity. The unit is mounted to a fabricated steel base for proper operation height.
• Pneumatic Clamp
  • The workpiece is held firmly in place by pneumatic clamp which is actuated from a foot pedal. When the foot pedal is pressed the pneumatic clamp will come down and the drill will then cycle. There is a clear plastic safety guard around the clamp to ensure the operators hands are free from the clamp.
• Adjustable Stop
  • A simple adjustable stop is configured on the side of the table for repeatable drilling operations. It can be easily rotated and stored when not required and can be positioned on either the right or left side of the table.
• Miter Gauge
  • Equipped with a sliding miter gauge for angle drilling operations. The gauge fits in a T-slot on the cast iron table and can be easily removed when not in use.
• Linear Guide Rails and Adjustable Stroke
  • The boring heads moves on round cylindrical guides for smooth and accurate movement. The guide rails are covered with rubber bellows to ensure a dust free environment. The drilling depth can be adjusted with a convenient knob.
• Powerful Direct Drive Boring Head
  • The drilling head is powered by a powerful 2HP direct drive motor.
• Foot Pedal Actuation
  • The clamping and drilling cycle is actuated by a convenient foot pedal which leaves the operators hands free to locate the workpiece.
• Two Spindle Adjustable Boring Head
  • The unique two spindle adjustable drilling head allows the operator to quickly set the center spacing of the drills from 0.71”~3.93” centers. A scale is provided to ensure accurate positioning of each spindle. It is equipped with a grease nipple which can be easily accessed for periodic greasing to ensure a long working life.
• Optional Boring Bits
  • The boring bits are threaded and rotate against the threading to ensure they do not slip during deep boring operations. The bits can be purchased in various sizes as shown below in the options section of this proposal.
