How much does the Peddinghaus BDU-1100/3 cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a cnc boring machine in this class — not a quote from Peddinghaus. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
With a listed weight of approximately 28,000 kg and an 1,100 mm section envelope, the Peddinghaus BDU-1100/3 is a three-spindle drilling line for structural beams. It is not among the models on Peddinghaus's current pages, and the listed figures below have not been confirmed against the maker.
The envelope is square on paper: flange width and beam height both reach a maximum of 1,100 mm. Each spindle has a face of its own, the top flange, the bottom flange and the web, and all three are described as cutting simultaneously. Hole size tops out at 76 mm (3") in diameter.
Rapid traverse is given as up to 12,000 mm/min, a figure that governs how quickly the spindles move between hole positions, not how fast they drill. It counts for more on beams with widely spaced hole groups than on densely drilled beam ends. Control is the Peddinghaus PeddiPro. Anyone assessing a used BDU-1100/3 should ask for the spindle ratings, the tooling system and the conveyor lengths, since the table is silent on all three.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- All three spindles (top flange, bottom flange, web) are described as drilling simultaneously
- Takes sections up to 1,100 mm in both flange width and beam height
- Holes up to 76 mm (3") in diameter
- Rapid traverse up to 12,000 mm/min between hole positions
Limitations
- Not shown on Peddinghaus's current pages; the listed figures are unconfirmed
- No spindle power, speed range or tooling interface in the table
- At approximately 28,000 kg it needs a foundation and lifting plan before installation

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The listed machine weight is approximately 28,000 kg. The table does not say whether conveyors or measuring systems are included in that figure, so confirm the scope of the weight before planning the foundation and the lift.
02
Listed capacity is a 76 mm (3") maximum drilling diameter in sections up to 1,100 mm in flange width and 1,100 mm in beam height. Minimum section size and maximum material thickness are not given.
03
The table names the Peddinghaus PeddiPro control. No software version, file format or import function is listed, so check what a particular machine's control accepts before assuming it will read your detailing output.
