Minnich Dowel-Pin Drills feature wireless controls, allowing the drill operator to get a clearer view of the drilling operation. The operator is also able to avoid dust and debris generated by the drilling. Each radio-control unit can be paired to a single machine, allowing for multiple drills to operate in the same area without interference.
