No references found			Current drill presses can use a variable-speed motor in combination with stepped pulley systems. Thing to Consider when Looking for a Drill Press by Dave Text / Home based business community They are available in any combination of belts and wheels and can be fitted with single, double or variable-speed motors. Machines for the moulding and millwork industry by Wood & Wood Products These variable-speed motors are said to be more powerful and compact than a typical crankshaft-type hydraulic motor or an electric motor of the same horsepower.
