Features of the Bosch Drill Press
Power and High-Performance Motor
The Bosch PBD 40 drill press features a 710-watt universal motor that replaces the traditional belt drive. This motor delivers consistent and efficient performance, allowing it to adapt to different materials and drilling tasks with maximum power and control.
Adjustable Speed System and Digital Display
Equipped with a two-speed gearbox (200–850 rpm in 1st gear and 600–2,500 rpm in 2nd gear), this drill offers total flexibility for every project. The integrated digital display shows the exact speed and drilling depth in real time, facilitating precise adjustments. Bosch’s constant electronic control prevents the speed from dropping when drilling into hard materials.
Guaranteed Precision with Laser and Lighting
The built-in laser function allows for exact alignment of the drilling point, while LED lighting of the work area improves visibility and reduces errors. It maintains an accuracy of approximately 1 mm, ensuring professional results even on delicate jobs. Ideal for electronics, model making, and precision mechanics.
Advanced Clamping and Precision Chuck
The innovative quick-clamp securely holds even round materials, pipes, and objects with complex geometries, significantly improving drilling accuracy. The keyless precision chuck automatically retightens the drill bit for maximum convenience and quick changes. Chuck capacity: 1.5 to 13 mm.
