CORMAK WS16 Bench Drill Press

The CORMAK WS16 Bench Drill Press is a compact yet exceptionally robust column drilling machine for metal, designed for precise drilling and tapping operations in workshop and production environments. Thanks to the automatic reversal of the spindle rotation direction, the machine enables efficient thread tapping in steel, making it an excellent solution for users who value efficiency and high machining quality.

Main Advantages of the Machine

- Integrated tapping function with automatic reversal to counterclockwise rotation – simplifies the internal thread tapping process.
- High spindle rigidity – ensures precise operation even under heavy loads and when machining harder materials.
- Robust construction made from seasoned cast iron components – provides operational stability and a long machine service life.
- Large spindle travel of 100 mm – offers an extended working range, particularly when drilling deep holes.
- Clear and easy-to-use control panel – intuitive machine operation with quick parameter adjustments.
- U-shaped spindle guard with a safety limit switch – CE compliance and enhanced operator safety.
- 360° rotating worktable with mounting slots – provides flexibility when clamping and positioning workpieces.
Construction and Technology
The CORMAK WS16 Bench Drill Press for Metal has been designed with an emphasis on strength and durability. The drill head, column, base, and worktable are manufactured from high-quality seasoned cast iron, ensuring exceptional rigidity throughout the entire structure.
The spindle and transmission shafts are made from heat-treated, hardened steel, minimizing wear during prolonged operation. The drive mechanism is based on a belt transmission system, a solution valued for its quiet and stable performance.
Precision and Operating Efficiency
With a 5-speed spindle adjustment ranging from 480 to 1875 rpm and an MT2 Morse taper, the machine allows optimal machining parameters to be selected according to the material type and drilling diameter.
The maximum drilling diameter in steel is 16 mm, while tapping operations can be performed up to M10.
The clear control panel and the ability to reverse the spindle rotation direction significantly simplify operation while increasing overall machining efficiency.

Applications
The CORMAK WS16 Column Drill Press is perfectly suited for:
- Metalworking and mechanical workshops.
- Maintenance departments.
- Training workshops and educational centers.
- Single-piece and small-batch production.
- Applications requiring high repeatability and precision in drilling and tapping operations.
Standard Equipment
- Adjustable keyed drill chuck (MT2 Morse taper)
- Morse taper drift for tool removal
- Spindle guard with safety limit switch (CE compliant)
