**Drilling Head**

Drilling head made from single-piece aluminum casting, to guarantee absence of vibrations. The boring unit runs on two rectified cylindrical guides which guarantee stability and precision. The machine is equipped with a mechanical revolver with 5 different boring depth adjustments. The new dust extraction system is incredibly efficient, and leaves the machine surprisingly clean!
