The XT-3000 sharpener now features a completely automated drill-sharpening function to enable faster and more consistent sharpening. It can sharpen drills, countersinks, brad points, left-hand drills and more. Users align the drill and push the start button to allow the auto sharpening feature to regrind the bit to specs within ANSI standards.
The machine sharpens drills ranging from 3 to 21 mm. The auto sharpener is also programmed to monitor and report the number of sharpenings it has completed. This enables the user to measure the machine’s productivity and perform regular maintenance to keep it running with no downtime.
