How to Choose a Magnetic Drill by Capacity, Function and Workpiece

Start with the required hole

Define the required drilling diameter and cutting depth before comparing machines. These requirements help narrow the confirmed model data and the suitable annular cutter range.

Check the workpiece and working position

Magnetic drills rely on a suitable ferrous mounting surface. Consider the available surface area, workpiece shape, access around the hole and whether the work is completed in a workshop or on a fixed structure.

Compare the functions you actually need

Different AXIMET magnetic drill configurations cover different capacities and control functions. Do not select a model from motor power alone.

• Required drilling diameter and depth
• Available mounting area and workpiece form
• Speed or control functions required by the application
• Cutter interface and accessory requirements
• Voltage, plug and OEM presentation requirements

Send a complete requirement

For a model recommendation, provide the material, hole diameter, cutting depth, quantity, working position and any OEM requirements. AXIMET can then compare the confirmed model data for the application.
