The Advantage-2 is a CNC beam drill line for structural steel fabrication, built around three drilling assemblies driven by 25 HP (18.5 kW) Siemens spindle motors with ball-screw feed positioning on each axis. Each spindle carries a 5-station automatic tool changer, so it can drill with carbide tooling, mill, countersink, tap and perform 4-axis scribing in a single pass. Its 44-inch-wide by 18-inch-tall processing window covers beams, channel, angle, tube and flat bar. AccuMeasure roller-feed measurement together with the MultMaster system maintains accurate positioning and nonstop throughput, while Raptor 3D CAD/CAM software lets operators program parts quickly. A heavy steel frame and an advanced clamping system minimize vibration to extend carbide tool life, supporting roughly 150 tons of steel per work week.
Advantage-2 beam drill line is a strong fit for teams evaluating Peddinghaus machines and looking for a practical choice with clear technical positioning and straightforward production integration.
