Magnetic Drills for Steel Fabrication — FERROVANTA
01

Fabrication Workflow

Magnetic drills bring a guided spindle directly to large or installed steel. They support connection holes, plate work, frames, maintenance and site modification.

02

Model Selection

Define material, diameter, depth, holes per shift, orientation and clearance. General fabrication often uses professional 40–50 mm machines; larger work requires additional capacity and torque.

03

Tooling and Quality

Match annular cutter, pilot pin, arbor, speed and lubrication. A controlled sample test should record all operating conditions.

BUYER QUESTIONS

magnetic drill for steel fabrication FAQ

Can a magnetic drill work on I-beams?+

Yes, when a flat steel area fully supports the magnetic base.

Which capacity is most common?+

Many general jobs fall within 40–50 mm, but selection must use the buyer’s regular hole range.

Can it be used on painted steel?+

Coatings can reduce adhesion and must be evaluated.
