Description

A micrometer head sits on top of the spindle. You turn it to set the depth, the thimble reads in hundredths, and the stroke is 10 mm. That is the one thing this machine does that the other two do not, and for a blind hole you have to stop at a depth rather than go through, it is the only thing that matters.

Three Mikrabench mini drill presses side by side: chuck, collet and micrometer

The bit is held in a 3.175 mm collet with a brass nose, not a drill chuck. 3.175 mm is the eighth-inch shank that PCB micro bits and carbide engraving bits are ground to.

Mikrabench lineup: chuck mini drill press with micro-feed kit, collet drill press, micrometer drill press and 120 x 150 mm base plate

The motor head

The plate on the motor reads TZ-525, 3 to 12 V, 0.3 to 4 mm. It is the same head as our $129 drill press, with a micrometer fine feed built on top and, on the version we sell, a collet nose in place of the chuck.

The base

Flat plate, four countersunk screws holding the rubber feet, one hole through the middle. The base has no slot or bolt pattern, so a vise cannot be bolted to it.

If holding the work down is the problem you are solving, the collet machine at $179 has two slots and a bolt circle — and no micrometer. The two machines solve different halves of the same job.

Power

The supply in the box is 3 A. For the full top speed, pair it with our 3 to 24 V bench supply.

The plug

Input 100 to 240 V, 50/60 Hz, so Australian and New Zealand outlets are inside its range and no transformer is needed.

Ordering from Australia or New Zealand? We send an Australian and New Zealand pin adapter with your machine, free, in its own small parcel. It takes both flat US pins and round European ones, so the plug goes into your wall. If it still does not, tell us and we post you the correct one free, or refund you in full with the return postage on us.

What comes in the box

The machine, the speed-control adapter with its dial, and a set of tungsten carbide micro bits from 0.15 to 1.0 mm on 3.175 mm shanks.

Delivery

Free and tracked, to the United States, Australia and New Zealand. Two to three weeks. Not available for delivery to Canada at the moment.

30-day returns from the day it arrives. Return postage is yours, the price of the item comes back in full.

Free tracked shipping on every order to the United States, Australia, New Zealand and Canada, with no minimum. A few items ship to a shorter list of countries, and their page says so.

Orders leave within 2 business days. The delivery time for your country is shown under the price of each item. In the United States the Mini Drill Press, the lathes, the XYZ and XYZR micrometer stages and many of the tools ship from US warehouses and arrive in about a week or less. Items shipped from overseas take one to two weeks, a few larger ones two to four. You get a tracking number by email as soon as the parcel is scanned.

30-day returns from the day it arrives, unused and in its packaging. If it arrived damaged or faulty, we pay the return label. If you simply changed your mind, you pay the return postage and get the full price of the item back. Email support@arvonelle.com before sending anything back.

Do I pay tax or duty? In the United States, sales tax is added at checkout where your state charges it, and the total you see is what you pay. For Australia and New Zealand nothing is added at checkout. If a carrier ever asks you for a fee on one of our parcels, don't pay it: email us first and we sort it out.

What if a part breaks? For twelve months, tell us which part and we post a new one free. No return needed.

Can I cancel? Yes, within 24 hours of ordering, no questions asked.

How do I reach you? Write to support@arvonelle.com or use the chat. A real person answers within one business day.
