Description
Milwaukee Portable Electromagnetic Drill Press – Magnetic Base – Heavy-Duty Metalworking
Description
Up for auction is a Milwaukee portable electromagnetic drill press / magnetic-base drill, a heavy-duty metalworking tool designed to provide drill-press capability directly at the workpiece.
Unlike a conventional stationary drill press, a magnetic drill press uses an electromagnetic base to secure the machine to a suitable ferrous-metal surface, allowing the operator to drill large and accurately positioned holes in structural steel, heavy plate, machinery, truck and trailer frames, agricultural equipment and other large metal components.
This type of Milwaukee drill press is particularly well suited for welding shops, fabrication shops, structural steel work, heavy equipment repair, agricultural repair, construction and industrial maintenance.
Milwaukee's comparable 4208-1 electromagnetic drill press combines an adjustable-position magnetic base with a heavy-duty No. 3 Morse-taper drill motor. Published specifications for that model include a 1-1/4" drilling capacity, 12.5-amp motor, 250/500 RPM speeds and 11" of drill travel.
Exact model and specifications of the individual machine being sold should be verified by the buyer.

Portable Magnetic Drill Design
The major advantage of this type of machine is its ability to travel to the work instead of requiring the work to be brought to the drill press.
The magnetic base can secure the drill to an appropriate ferrous-steel surface, making it useful for drilling in locations that would be impossible or impractical with a conventional drill press.
Potential applications include:
Structural steel
I-beams
Heavy plate
Machinery frames
Truck frames
Trailer frames
Agricultural equipment
Construction equipment
Industrial equipment
Fabrication projects
Milwaukee's electromagnetic bases are designed for use on suitable ferrous material, and the adjustable-position bases allow the drill to be positioned relative to the workpiece.
Typical Applications
This machine could be particularly useful for:
Welding shops
Steel fabrication
Structural steel fabrication
Farm equipment repair
Heavy equipment repair
Truck and trailer repair
Construction
Equipment modification
Industrial maintenance
Machinery repair
Field-service welding
Equipment installation
Agricultural repair
Manufacturing
Contractor service work
For a fabrication or repair shop, a magnetic drill can be especially valuable because it allows large steel components to remain in place while holes are drilled accurately.
