Paper drills are typically used for binding purposes, by drilling precise holes into thicker stacks of paper that are too difficult to punch by hand. The paper stack is then typically bound by using paper fasteners, binders, screw posts, or binding rings. Paper Drilling Machines are most commonly used by schools, print shops, binderies, & paper manufacturers. Paper drills are designed to quickly and easily drill different diameter holes in thick stacks of paper. Depending on the model of paper drill that you choose, you can drill one or more holes at a time through up to a 2" thick stack of paper. Manual paper drills work much like a drill press and require you to pull down the handle to drill through the paper. Electric paper drills automate that process by drilling through the paper automatically, usually activated by a push-button or foot pedal. A selection of Paper Drilling Accessories are available for most drills, including drill blocks, lubricant, drill bit sharpeners and additional drill bits of different diameters.

For customized drilling patterns, a manual override of the four presets is easily performed and customized program strips for reoccurring drilling applications are available. Paper positioning is error free with the self centering paper guides. An ergonomically designed push-button operates the table's movement to stop at each preset position, ensuring accurate hole registration. The hand lever operation accurately drills through paper piles of 2 to 500 sheets of 20lb paper with ease, which equals to a 2" thick stack. An easy margin adjustment setting on the backstop allows for drill bit adjustment of 0.125" up to 1.1" from the edge.
