Heavy Duty Vertical Drilling Machines

Clausing is widely regarded as one of the leading brands in industrial drill press manufacturing. With a comprehensive lineup spanning multiple drive types, spindle speeds from 62 to 4,800 RPM, and motors up to 10 HP, Clausing machines are trusted across aerospace, heavy manufacturing, and precision machining industries worldwide for their durability and engineering quality.

Clausing heavy duty vertical drilling machines are available in three drive configurations: gear head drive with automatic pump lubrication, variable speed belt drive with electronic inverter, and step pulley belt drive. Each system offers distinct advantages for RPM control, ranging from 62 to 4,800 RPM depending on the model selected.

Clausing heavy duty drill presses can drill up to 2.75 inches in mild steel and up to 3.15 inches in cast iron. Swing ranges vary from 9.84 inches to 43.3 inches across models, making them suitable for light precision work as well as large-format heavy-duty industrial drilling applications requiring significant torque and rigidity.

These machines offer three quill feed systems: manual feed for operator-controlled precision, mechanical clutch feed for consistent depth control, and electromagnetic clutch feed for automated production drilling. The electromagnetic clutch models are especially suited to high-volume manufacturing environments where repeatability and throughput are critical requirements.

Yes, select Clausing RS models include an optional automatic tapping feature with an automatic spindle reversing system activated by a limit stop. This enables efficient tapping operations without manual spindle reversal, reducing cycle times and improving accuracy in production settings where threaded holes are a regular machining requirement.

T.R. Wigglesworth Machinery Co. provides access to Clausing's Service Center, which maintains an inventory of over 80,000 parts with 95% of orders shipped within 24 hours. Highly qualified technicians are available for phone and on-site support, ensuring minimal machine downtime for all Clausing drill press models across the full product range.
