Fixed speed 800 rpm: simple and reliable configuration for standard use on typical materials and diameters. For workshops primarily working with structural steel using standard core drills, the fixed speed is correctly dimensioned, avoiding the electronic complexity and cost of an inverter. The electromagnet with an adhesion force of 14,500 N ensures secure attachment to steel structures, even in vertical or overhead positions, with a safety belt\/chain included as standard. Its 9.5 kg weight and compact dimensions (150 × 300 × 260 mm) make it transportable to the job site in a carrying case or plastic container, without the need for a pallet jack or crane. Among Krollit's customers, the MD 3850 is chosen by metalworking shops, automotive workshops, steel structure manufacturers, industrial maintenance personnel, and on-site installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIts place in the Bernardo range\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Bernardo magnetic drilling machine range is organized by core drilling capacity (max diameter and depth) and drive type. The range includes 10 models divided into 3 families:\n\nE Family (fixed speed): MD 3550 E (Ø 35 mm), MD 3850 (Ø 38 mm), MD 4055 (Ø 40 mm), MD 5050 E (Ø 50 mm). Suitable for workshops with standard repetitive operations on known materials.\n\nVD Family (Variable Digital Speed): MD 3550 VD (Ø 35 mm), MD 5050 VD (Ø 50 mm), MD 6050 VD (Ø 60 mm), MD 9875 VD (Ø 98 mm). Continuously adjustable speed for adaptation to material, suitable for workshops with a variety of operations.\n\nM Family (multi-gear\/multifunction): MD 5075 with 2 gears (Ø 50 mm × 75 mm depth), TPC 1000 multifunction with tapping up to M18.\n\nThe MD 3850 is sized for workshops with standard daily use. For workshops that alternate different materials (mild steels, hardened steels, aluminum), the corresponding VD version offers greater flexibility: for the MD 3850, the VD equivalent is the higher VD range. The advantage of the E version lies in its simple construction (fewer electronic components) and lower cost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKrollit logistics and support\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBernardo shipping in 5-9 business days (7 days for Southern Italy).
