Baileigh DP-1000VS 20.8" EVS Drill Press
Are you running a fabrication or machining shop that needs a variable speed drill press with auto-reversing tapping and an integrated coolant system on 220V single-phase power?
What if that drill press gave you 150 to 3,000 RPM without belt changes, a 16-inch swing, 1-inch drilling capacity, and a halogen gooseneck work light in one machine?
Meet the Baileigh DP-1000VS, a 20.8-inch EVS drill press built for fabrication and machining environments that need precise variable speed control and built-in tapping capability on 220V single-phase power.
With the DP-1000VS, you get a 2 HP inverter-driven motor on 220V single-phase power, continuous speed adjustment from 150 to 3,000 RPM, and a rigid cast iron base and table that resist flex at full drilling capacity.
When the DP-1000VS is set up for your job, you get accurate, consistent drilling and tapping results with a machine built for dependable daily shop use.
Baileigh DP-1000VS for Variable Speed Industrial Drilling and Tapping Work
Continuously Variable Speed from 150 to 3,000 RPM
The inverter-driven motor adjusts spindle speed continuously from 150 to 3,000 RPM without belt changes, letting operators match drilling speed to the material and bit at hand. This continuous variable control improves tooling life and adapts to a wider range of materials and drill sizes than fixed-speed machines.
Auto-Reversing Tap Function Adds Built-In Tapping Capability
The auto-reversing tap function handles tapping operations up to 5/8-inch in mild steel without manual spindle reversal between tapping cycles. This built-in capability removes the need for a separate tapping machine on jobs where drilled holes require threads.
16-Inch Swing and MT3 Spindle Handle a Range of Drilling Work
The 16-inch swing accommodates a wide range of workpiece sizes, and the MT3 spindle taper provides broad tooling compatibility with standard shop tooling. Drilling capacity reaches 1 inch in mild steel and 1.25 inches in cast iron, covering the drilling requirements that fabrication and machining shops handle regularly.
Coolant System and Halogen Work Light Support Daily Production
The integrated coolant system extends tool and bit life during drilling and tapping operations by managing heat at the cutting zone. The halogen gooseneck work light illuminates the drilling area so operators can monitor the cut and follow layout lines clearly during extended machining sessions.
