What This Machine Does
This group covers the 32 and 40 mm capacity radial drills for medium and small workpieces, and the useful thing about it is that you can pick the arm reach independently of the drilling diameter. ZQ3040x10/1 and Z3040x8/1 reach 320 to 1020 mm and 320 to 820 mm on a 200 mm column, while Z3040x10 and Z3032x10 run on a heavier 240 mm column with the spindle reaching in to 200 mm and out to 1000 mm. All five models take MT4 tooling. The 240 mm column machines are the faster pair: 71 to 1800 r/min in 8 steps with 4 feed steps from 0.13 to 0.54 mm/r and 250 mm of spindle travel. The 200 mm column machines run 75 to 1220 r/min in 6 steps with 3 feed steps from 0.10 to 0.25 mm/r and 240 mm of travel. The machines have the rigidity and the power to drill counterbore spot face ream and tap, and to bore as well when fitted with a special device.
Why Buyers Choose This Machine
- Five models let you match arm reach and drilling diameter separately to your parts
- Spindle reaching in to 200 mm on Z3040x10 and Z3032x10 lets small parts be drilled near the column
- 240 mm column models run to 1800 r/min in 8 steps which suits smaller drills and lighter material
- Feed range to 0.54 mm/r on the 8 speed models moves faster through a batch of holes
- MT4 spindle across the whole group so one tooling set covers every model
- 250 mm of spindle travel on the 240 mm column models for deep hole work
- Boring possible when the machine is equipped with the special device
Where Radial Drilling Machine ZQ3040x10 Earns Its Place
Problems It Solves
- A fixed spindle machine forces the part to be moved and reclamped for every hole
- Too narrow a speed range means the same machine cannot serve small and full capacity drills
- Long arms are wasted cost when the parts are small and near the column
- Hand feeding gives inconsistent hole finish across a pattern
- Sending boring work to another machine adds setup and loses position
Who It Is For
- General machine shops handling medium and small parts
- Fabrication workshops drilling plate and structural components
- Component manufacturers producing multi-hole parts
- Maintenance departments across manufacturing plants
- Distributors supplying radial drilling machines
Application Scenarios
- Drilling and tapping medium and small workpieces in a general machine shop
- Bolt hole patterns on plates covers and flanges up to 40 mm diameter
- Reaming pre-drilled holes to fit on machined components
- Spot facing bolt seats on fabricated assemblies
- Boring operations with the special device fitted
- Mixed job work where hole positions change from part to part

How It Is Built and What Can Be Changed
Operations Performed
- Drilling
- Counter boring
- Spot facing
- Reaming
- Tapping
- Boring
Quality Control
- Spindle run-out checked at the MT4 taper on the assembled head
- Every spindle speed and feed step run under power
- Arm reach checked against the listed range for the model
- Spindle travel verified over the 240 or 250 mm stroke
- Test drilling at the rated 32 or 40 mm capacity before packing
Customisation Options
- Model selected by drilling diameter 32 or 40 mm and by the arm reach your parts need
- 200 mm or 240 mm column chosen for rigidity against speed range
- Special boring device supplied where boring is required on the machine
- Supply voltage frequency and phase built for your market
- Operating language manual and control plate text prepared for your workshop
How It Compares With the Alternatives
| Radial drilling machines Z3040x13/1 and Z3050x12/1 | Those models add hydraulic clamping 16 speed and 8 or 16 feed steps and reach out to 1300 mm; this group is lighter and simpler for medium and small parts |
|---|---|
| Pillar type vertical drilling machine Z5040 | A pillar machine holds the spindle fixed above a tilting table; the radial arm reaches out to 1020 mm which is what multi-hole work on wide parts needs |
| Boring mill | A boring mill is the right machine for close tolerance bores but is expensive per hour; with the special device these radial drills take lighter boring work at far lower cost |
Running the Machine
Step 1
Choose the model whose arm reach covers the furthest hole on your parts
Step 2
Clamp the workpiece to the base plate or the worktable
Step 3
Swing the arm and traverse the head over the hole then clamp
Step 4
Select the spindle speed step for the drill diameter and material
Step 5
Select the feed step from the 3 or 4 available and engage the feed
Step 6
Change to the reamer counterbore or tap without unclamping the part
Step 7
Fit the special device where a bored rather than a drilled hole is required

Questions About Radial Drilling Machine ZQ3040x10
Which model has the longest reach?
ZQ3040x10/1 at 320 to 1020 mm from spindle axis to the column generating line. Z3040x10 and Z3032x10 reach 200 to 1000 mm, which brings the spindle closer to the column for small parts.
What is the difference between the 200 mm and 240 mm column models?
The 240 mm column models run 71 to 1800 r/min in 8 speed steps with 4 feed steps to 0.54 mm/r and 250 mm of spindle travel. The 200 mm column models run 75 to 1220 r/min in 6 steps with 3 feed steps to 0.25 mm/r and 240 mm of travel.
What tooling does the spindle take?
MT4 on every model in this group, so one tooling set serves them all.
Can the machine bore as well as drill?
Yes, when it is equipped with the special boring device. Tell us your bore sizes and tolerance and we will confirm what the device covers.
What size parts is it intended for?
Medium and small workpieces. If you drill very large components look at the Z3050 Z3063 and Z3080 machines with arms out to 2000 mm and above.
How is it packed and what does it weigh for shipping?
In a wooden case sized to the model. Send us the model and we will confirm case dimensions net weight and gross weight on the proforma invoice.
What are your trade and payment terms?
We quote FOB CFR and CIF. Payment is 30 percent by T/T with the order and 70 percent before shipment, or an irrevocable L/C at sight.
