Vario Pillar Drill FDM 430 - 20 VRL / 400 V

The Vario FDM 430 - 20 VRL pillar drill is a floor-standing machine powered at 400 V, with a drilling capacity of up to 25 mm and MT 3 Morse taper spindle mount. Speed is infinitely variable over two ranges, 180 to 600 and 580 to 2,000 rpm, and is shown on the digital display. The 1.1 kW motor features rotation reversal as standard; the cross laser, LED light and 155 mm quill stroke complete the equipment for precise drilling, including deep holes.

What are the main features of the FDM 430 - 20 VRL?

• Infinitely variable speed over two ranges, 180–600 and 580–2,000 rpm
• Digital display of the set speed
• Clockwise/anticlockwise rotation reversal with cam switch, as standard
• Cross laser and LED light as standard
• 155 mm quill stroke on quality ball bearings for good concentricity
• Cast-iron pulleys for smooth operation
• Oversized 355 × 355 mm table with diagonal T-slots, tilting from -45° to +45° and height-adjustable via rack
• Ø 80 mm column and ground base with T-slots
• 1.1 kW aluminium motor with IP54 protection rating
• Ergonomic handles and separate emergency stop button

What applications is it suitable for?

The FDM 430 - 20 VRL is suitable for workshops, metal fabrication shops, maintenance departments and laboratories that drill steel, aluminium, wood and plastics up to 25 mm, including on tall workpieces thanks to its floor-standing pillar design. The infinitely variable speed lets you set the exact speed for each drill bit and material, the 155 mm stroke allows deep holes in a single pass, and rotation reversal is useful for extracting tools and for operations requiring anticlockwise rotation. It requires connection to a 400 V three-phase supply.

It is not suitable for users with only a 230 V single-phase socket, nor for workpieces that require the drilling point to be moved beyond the 215 mm throat depth: in these cases a radial drill is required.
