The Maka LB1 is a used wood drilling machine — sometimes referred to as a dowel drilling machine — designed for precision hole boring operations in woodworking and furniture manufacturing applications. Maka is a German manufacturer with a long-standing reputation for building specialised woodworking machinery, and their drilling equipment is commonly found in joinery shops and industrial cabinet-making environments.
This particular unit is configured as a dowel hole drilling device with pitch settings of 16, 22, 25, and 32 mm, making it well suited to the varied spacing requirements of dowel-jointed panel and frame construction. The machine offers a drilling depth of 145 mm and a slot length of 240 mm, with a height adjustment range of 135 mm to accommodate workpieces of differing thicknesses or positioning needs.
Power is provided by a 1.5 kW motor running at 2,800 rpm, delivering consistent spindle speed for clean, accurate holes in timber and sheet materials. Dust and chip extraction is facilitated through a 100 mm extraction connection, allowing the machine to be integrated into a workshop extraction system.
In terms of physical footprint, the machine measures 1,280 mm in length and 960 mm in width, and weighs 250 kg — a solid, stable mass that is typical of production-grade drilling equipment. This unit dates from 1999 and is offered in used condition from a location in Germany, Indiana.
