With 6 inches of quill travel, the NOVA Voyager provides deeper drilling capacity than most standard drill presses. This extended range allows for increased flexibility in larger projects, from thick wooden beams to deep metal boring applications.
Unlike standard drill presses, the Voyager features a forward and reverse switch, making it perfect for tapping, thread-cutting, and removing debris from drilled holes. This added versatility makes it a must-have for professionals who require maximum control over their work.

The Voyager’s electronic braking system automatically stops the drill faster and more safely than traditional mechanical brakes. This not only improves workflow efficiency but also enhances safety, preventing unnecessary wear and tear on the motor.
Equipped with a bright, easy-to-read digital screen, this drill press provides real-time information on speed, depth, and load performance. The digital quill depth readout ensures precise hole depth measurements, helping you achieve repeatable, professional-quality results.
Built from solid cast iron, the NOVA Voyager is engineered for maximum stability and vibration reduction. Its heavy-duty frame absorbs operational stress, ensuring smooth and consistent performance over years of use.
Unlike conventional motors, the Voyager’s Striatech DVR motor only uses the energy required for the task at hand, reducing power consumption by up to 50% compared to standard drill presses. This not only saves money on electricity but also extends the life of the machine by reducing heat buildup and component stress.
