New bench top drill press. Help me ID it

[greasyfingers01]

Gentlemen, I need your help! I picked up a bench top drill press for a darn good price. It has a No. 1 Jacob's chuck, and a US made motor.The P.O. even tossed in a Jacobs No. 0 w/sensitive feed. However there is no other identification besides the motor plate. Does anyone have any info as to where I could look to identify the manufacturer? Thanks.

I would classify that as a sensitive drill press. Made for small bits and high spindle speeds. That said it doesn't look to be a real precision machine as most sensitive DP's are.

no neat sig line

You're correct. It is a sensitive dp and definitely not a high end machine, but seems to be decent. Saying I got it for less than what the 2 chucks are worth, I'm happy with it. A small sensitive chuck was on my short list for work tool purchases, so the rest is icing.

The mustard yellow and black of nameplate makes me think it's an import. Enco? I'll check the spindle/chuck for runnout and table deflection under a moderate load.
