GSB Selfeeder

The GSB Selfeeder is a pneumatic feed drilling unit with a rich variation ranging from low-speed to high-speed rotation. It is best suited for cutting work that utilizes special tools such as carbide drills, reamers, and milling equipment.

• 1/2 or 3/4 HP spindle motors
• 700-9000 fixed rpm spindle speed range
• Typical drilling capacity in mild steel is 3/8 in.(9.5 mm)
• Typical drilling capacity in cast iron 7/16 in. (11 mm)
• Typical drilling capacity in aluminum 33/64 in.(13 mm)
• Standard stroke of 3.94 in. (100 mm) with 5.91 in. (150 mm) optional
• Thru-the-tool coolant is available as an option
• Standard JT33 and JT1 type spindles for drill or collet chucks with integral collet, ASA and KH quick change, and special spindles available as options

When starting any new automation project, In-Position Technologies engineers start by reviewing the key requirements to determine all necessary components needed in an application. This includes providing recommendations for any appropriate controllers, power supplies, sensors, encoders, bearings, couplings, and any other components needed to fit the application. Our engineers perform all necessary engineering assessments to make sure all components perform properly together, are within customer specifications, and do not come with unnecessary costs.

This includes:

• Payload, reach, speed, cycle time, and repeatability requirement
• Specifying the appropriate feedback device (sensors, vision system, torque sensor)
• Verifying mounting compatibility, form factor checks, etc.
• Ensuring compatibility with the current system
• Ensuring all necessary auxiliary equipment are also specified

When ordering the GSB Selfeeder as a part of a full system, IP Tech engineers review the solution to ensure:

• All parts and fittings necessary for a complete working solution are included
• All components have been checked and verified to work together as a system
• The selected components will perform as required by the project specifications
