Default Looking for a manufacturer of large drill presses...

Looking for someone who sells *new* drill press machines with 5 HP or more
and the distance from spindle axis to the column must be at least 22"


Haas, Supermax, Mazak, Mori Seiki are companies that make machines for
this.

They are called Milling Machines.

Thanks Gunner. However, you missed the part where the specified machine was
not a milling machine but a drill press only. The customer desires to avoid
milling machine-like devices for some bizzare reason. ...Otherwise, that
Bridgeport Series II machine I mentioned earlier would be awesome for them
with a nice big table, worldwide support (sort of) and a monster footprint.

The customer is in Russia and knows Knuth and Summit... But I don't think
either can make a machine that size for them.
