For Sale - Wörner B4 - High Speed Precision Bench Drill
Used Wörner B4 400V 3 Phase precision bench drill. This was a premium machine when new and is a high quality well-made piece of equipment. Suitable for applications small high precision such as clock making, scale model making etc. It features pulleys that allow 8 different speeds (650 rpm through to 12,000, see front plate in images). It also can be converted to run off an inverter for precise speed control and this is included in the sale, but has not been installed.
Features
This drill is 3 phase operating on 400V therefore will not run on a 3 pin standard household plug. It has a 5 pin 3 phase plug installed - please check compatibility with your set-up, otherwise a 4 pin conversion may be required, which is not difficult. The drill features a work light, depth stop and is height adjustable. There are 8 speeds that are selectable via changes to the belt and pulley drive system. T slots in the bed allow workpieces to be secured effectively and safely.

Condition
The drill is in good used condition and operates well. The body is not perfect - this is a decades old machine and there are scratches and missing paint here and there, but it is generally in very presentable condition. There are some small holes drilled into the bed under the spindle as seen in the pictures, however these do not affect operation. We bought this drill at least 3 years ago with the intention of using it for model making, in which time it was PAT tested but has remained unused. We have deemed it surplus to requirements due to having other similar equipment and is up for grabs for someone who will be able to get some use out of it. We are not a machine dealer so it is sold as seen with no guarantee.
This is also listed on eBay so we reserve the right to remove this at any time.
