The MAFELL BST 650 S drill stand is designed for ultra-precise drilling in solid wood and glulam. The sturdy yet light aluminium-profile column with single-column guide gives a good view of the marking line and drill tip and leaves enough room for tool changes. The design also helps prevent the drill from tilting while drilling.
A key feature is the 80 mm high six-roller drill guidewith an infinitely adjustable iris-type mechanism. The rollers guide the drill precisely and help prevent wandering, making BST 650 S suitable for demanding precision and series drilling.
The S version's column can be swivelled 45° to both sides , and the desired angle can be set precisely using the angle scale. The 0° position can be locked, and the drilling point at base-plate level forms the pivot axis, so marking indicators remain usable when drilling at an angle.
The adjustable polyethylene cord return system lets you adapt the return force to the working position. This is especially useful for horizontal drilling, where lower return force makes work more comfortable. After drilling, the carriage automatically returns to its starting position.
For repeated drilling patterns and hole rows the insert plate can be replaced with an optional copying part, which can be used with drilling templates. Marking grooves allow precise positioning, and the optional parallel guide with side stop suits series production, including end-grain drilling. The depth scale allows the desired drilling depth to be set quickly and precisely.
BST 650 S is suitable for drills with a 43 mm collar and allows tools up to 130 mm in diameter at 0°. At 45° the maximum tool diameter is 100 mm. Drilling depth up to 455 mm and drill length of 650 mm make the stand suitable for demanding woodworking where precision and repeatable results matter.
