BDL-1250-9D

The Undisputed Leader in Beam Drilling Productivity

Combining sophisticated Siemens electronics, heavy duty carbide drilling and superior feedback, the BDL-1250/9D drill spindle is both versatile and efficient. Processing an average of 200 plus tons of structural steel per 40-hour work week, the BDL-1250/9D is the beam drill line solution for large fabricators.

Unmatched Drilling Speed

With superior clamping power to accommodate carbide drilling, the BDL-1250/9D boasts an impressive 1800 RPM spindle speed. With today's modern technologies including micro-mist coolant, spindle specific motors, carbide part marking, Break-Through Detection technology and automatically adjusting roller measurement, we created the industry's premier beam drill line.

High Speed Carbide Drilling

The drill assemblies of the BDL-1250/9D employ 25 HP (18.5 kW) Siemens servo motors. These spindles boast a speed range of 145-1800 RPM. The exceptional strength of the BDL-1250/9D spindles allow for faster processing times in drilling, tapping, countersinking and scribing using carbide tooling.

Nine Spindles Makes for Constant Operation

The three drill assemblies on the BDL-1250/9D operate simultaneously or independently of one another using either the same or different drill diameters, speeds and feeds.

Nonstop Throughput with Roller Feed Measurement

Peddinghaus’ Roller Feed Measurement system exceeds the industry standard for roller measurement technology. Maintaining accurate measurements without any hesitation in production is crucial. Accuracy is not compromised even despite deviations in material.

Sturdy Drill Clamping to Eliminate Vibration

The BDL-1250/9D employs a series of support clamps in order to achieve optimum rigidity of the workpiece through the machine. Carbide tool life is best sustained with the least amount of vibration possible.

Break-Through Detection Technology for Faster Drilling

Optional drill break-through detection technology speeds up processing time by minimizing spindle run time. The spindle automatically detects breakthrough of the drilled hole, and rapidly retracts. It then advances to the next hole in the part program. Carbide tooling, along with break-through detection, help the BDL-1250/9D reach record-low processing times with beams, channel, angle, tube and flat bar.

Band Saw Integration

The BDL-1250/9D heavy duty beam drill line with its powerful material handling support, meticulous measurement capabilities and high speed designs are ideal for tandem installations with any of Peddinghaus' automatic sawing systems.

AccuMeasure Allows Complete Handling Control

Saw measurement options are available via the Peddinghaus AccuMeasure Roller Feed measurement system. The AccuMeasure allows for complete handling versatility, while maintaining a streamlined CNC solution. Splitting apart a drill and a saw allows neither machine to wait for the other, maximizing production.

Raptor 3D CAD/CAM Software

Developed by Peddinghaus, Raptor 3D CAD/CAM Software takes CNC innovation further by enabling users to program faster and more accurately. Inspect, modify and export part information directly within the 3D platform. This coupled with Peddinghaus CNC technology means maximum capacity for fabricators.
