With its all-metal design an and optimised setup of steel, aluminium and magnesium components the DS500 offers stability and durability, without adding unnecessary weight. This is extremely important and beneficial, especially for setup. The design of its steel-reinforced extruded aluminium column is optimised for high precision and drilling performance, even down to its hinges which have a zero-ply design to enable stability over time. Its slim-design carriage has optimised gear ratios and can be removed during setup or transportation if required.
The drill column has graduated scales which clearly illustrate to the operator both drilling depth and working angle. The winding handle/crack can be easily removed, used on either side of the column and used to set level bolt heights or adjust the angle of the column – no more tools required.
