DU-300
AUTOMATIC AIR-HYDRAULIC DRILL
UNITS
The DU-300 is a quill-type, air-hydraulic, drill unit whose
clean, simple design and quality construction throughout
assure exceptionally reliable operation and long, trouble-
free, service life. Spindle, quill, and piston are in-line. The
hydraulic system is sealed and self-contained with no ex
ternal, offset, hydraulic checks. Drive spindle is mounted
in
sealed, pre-lubricated, double-row ball bearings front and
rear. The \y
extra long bearings. All steel parts are of heat-treated,
chrome-moly steel; the housing is of cast aluminum alloy.
Electrical components are built to J.I.C. Standards.

The DU-300 is flexible and versatile. It may be used in any
position, at any angle. It may be arranged for push-button
or fully automatic operation and its electrical controls
permit interlocking with other units. Available as optional
equipment are foot switch, double-palm cycle start buttons,
automatic cycle switch and timer, dwell control and timer,
timed reciprocating cycle, and skip-feed. Available with
either direct drive or overhead mounted motors, the DU-300
lends itself ideally to incorporation into special machines.

Model DU-300 is a self-contained, air-hydraulic unit incorporating a
3y2“ diameter steel cylinder and aluminum piston (C), a hydraulic
accumulator (dash-pot) (E), and electrical cycling controls. The move
ment of the spindle is controlled by three micro-switches (LS-1) (LS-2)
(LS-3), through relays. Rapid advance and retract is by means of air,
feed rate is controlled by an adjustable hydraulic valve (F).

(D) into the hydraulic accumulator (E). (As the spindle begins its for
ward motion, a safety Switch disconnects the start
removed from the circuit. This safety switch may also be used to inter
lock two or more units).
At the end of the rapid advance portion of the stroke, a micro-switch
(LS-2) energizes a relay which closes the wide-open hydraulic valve
