The Hofmann LB750 is a used wood drilling machine — sometimes referred to as a dowel drilling machine — designed for precision hole and slot boring in wood components, a task central to furniture manufacturing, cabinetmaking, and joinery production. Hofmann is a German manufacturer with a background in woodworking machinery, producing equipment used across the wood processing and furniture industries.
This machine is configured as a dowel hole drilling device capable of working at standard pitch settings of 16, 22, 25, and 32 mm, accommodating the most common dowel spacing requirements encountered in furniture and panel construction. The drilling depth reaches 145 mm, while the slot length extends to 240 mm, giving the machine meaningful versatility for both blind-hole and slot-drilling applications. A height adjustment range of 135 mm allows the operator to position the drilling unit to suit workpieces of varying thickness or reference height.
The machine is powered by a dual-speed motor rated at 1.3 kW and 1.8 kW, with corresponding spindle speeds of 1400 rpm and 2800 rpm. This two-speed arrangement allows the operator to match cutting speed to the material and drill diameter in use. The workpiece holder clamp is operated manually. Dust and chip extraction is served by a 100 mm extraction connection, enabling integration with a workshop extraction system.
In terms of footprint, the machine measures 1,280 mm in length and 960 mm in width, and it weighs 300 kg, reflecting a robust, floor-standing construction suited to a dedicated workshop installation. The machine dates from 1993 and is offered in used condition from a seller located in Germany, Indiana.
