A drill press is a stationary power tool used for drilling holes in various materials, such as wood, metal, and plastic. It consists of a motor, a drill bit, and a table that can be adjusted for height and angle. The drill press allows for precise and consistent drilling, making it a valuable tool in workshops and manufacturing settings. The operation of a drill press involves securing the workpiece on the table and adjusting the speed and depth of the drill bit. This tool is often preferred over handheld drills for tasks that require accuracy, such as creating pilot holes or installing screws.
