Capabilities

The ALZMETALL AB 3 ES is a robust manual column drilling machine built for precision hole-making in metal components. With a drilling capacity up to 32mm and a spindle speed range of 100–1600 rpm, it handles a wide variety of materials and hole sizes. The MK3 spindle holder accepts standard drill chucks, while the height-adjustable table (450×350mm clamping surface) provides flexibility for different workpiece heights. The foot switch allows hands-free operation, making repetitive drilling safer and more efficient.

Industries & Uses

This machine is ideal for small to medium metalworking shops, job shops, tool and die makers, and maintenance departments in manufacturing facilities. It's commonly used for drilling holes in brackets, flanges, machine parts, and structural components. The straightforward manual control makes it accessible for operators of varying experience levels, without the complexity of CNC systems.

What to Check When Buying

When inspecting this 1976 machine, check the spindle for runout and smooth rotation at all speeds—wear here directly affects drilling accuracy. Examine the table for flatness and smooth movement; any binding or play will cause misaligned holes. Ask for maintenance records and test the foot switch mechanism. Given its age, verify that all moving parts operate freely and that the column itself shows no cracks or severe wear.
