Description

Overview
The R 60 VT PRO is a servocontrolled conventional radial drill designed for precise drilling, countersinking and thread cutting in single-part and small-batch production. Its intuitive operating concept and large touchscreen simplify parameter selection and reduce setup time. Common applications include maintenance, toolmaking and steel construction.

Highlights
  • Intuitive operating concept with large touchscreen
  • Advanced electronic control of machine functions
  • Servo-driven quill feed with automatic return
  • Rigid cast construction for high stability
  • 3-year warranty on the touchscreen


Construction & Mechanical Design
  • Base, column, boom and gear head in premium cast for maximum rigidity
  • Oversized column and torsion-resistant boom for stable machining
  • Boom height adjustment via powerful motorized drive and vertical spindle
  • Boom lifting gears run in an oil bath for long service life
  • Smooth swivel and travel axes to reduce operator effort
  • Central lubrication system ensures consistent lubrication of the column


Control & Feed
  • Electronic servo quill feed controlled from a large touchscreen display
  • Drilling depth set electronically and validated by the control system
  • Selectable units (mm / inch) for input and display
  • Coolant system enabled from touchscreen and synchronized with main spindle
  • Two gear steps with continuously variable rpm displayed on the monitor
  • Servo motor provides infinitely variable quill feed; quill returns automatically at preset depth
  • Thread cutting manual on base model; automatic thread cutting available as option on certain variants
  • Boom height set via touchscreen icon; system releases/fixes hydraulic clamps and respects limit stops
  • Drill head and column can be clamped/released together or separately
  • Boom can be moved vertically without losing spindle-to-bore alignment
  • Control software provides rpm and feed recommendations based on drill size
  • Alarm screens warn operator of errors and show machine status


Automatic thread cutting (optional)
  • Automatic thread cutting enabled at the touchscreen on equipped models
  • Tap size, pitch and recommended rpm read from internal database
  • Threading performed with automatic feed; spindle speed synchronized with thread leads and depth stop limits thread depth
  • On reaching preset depth spindle reverses and quill returns to start position


Standard equipment & options
  • Touchscreen control integrating most machine functions
  • Automatic thread cutting cycle (optional on selected SKUs)
  • Servo motor for quill feed
  • Drilling accessories and chuck sets (options)
  • Cube table
  • Central lubrication (manual/centralized)
  • Coolant system
  • LED work light
  • Height-adjustable protective screen
  • User manual
