Bench Drill CORMAK WS16 – precision column drill for metal with tapping function

The CORMAK WS16 bench drill is a compact yet exceptionally robust column drill for metal, designed for precise drilling and tapping operations in workshop and production conditions. Thanks to automatic spindle rotation reversal, the machine enables efficient thread cutting in steel, making it an excellent choice for users who value efficiency and machining quality.

Main advantages of the machine

• Built-in tapping function with automatic left rotation switch – simplified internal threading process.
• High spindle rigidity – precise operation even under heavy load and when machining hard materials.
• Solid construction made from seasoned cast iron – stability and long machine life.
• Large spindle travel – 100 mm – extended operational range, especially useful for deep-hole drilling.
• Clear control panel – intuitive machine operation and quick parameter adjustment.
• U-type spindle guard with limit switch – CE-compliant for enhanced operator safety.
• 360° rotatable table with T-slots – flexible clamping and positioning of workpieces.

Design and technology

The CORMAK WS16 bench drill is designed with durability and rigidity in mind. The spindle head, column, base and table are made from high-quality seasoned castings, ensuring exceptional stiffness throughout the structure. The spindle and gear shafts are made of hardened, heat-treated steel to minimise wear during extended use. The drive system is based on a belt transmission, known for its quiet and stable operation.

Precision and performance

With a 5-step spindle speed adjustment ranging from 480 to 1875 rpm and a Morse taper MK2, the machine enables optimal speed selection depending on the material and drilling diameter. The maximum drilling diameter in steel is 16 mm, while tapping is possible up to M10. The clear control panel and spindle rotation reversal greatly improve handling and increase process efficiency.
