VH13 Series Multi-Spindle Drill Heads

Please contact for prices

The VH13 Series multi-spindle drill heads are designed for large-diameter drilling operations in heavy-duty industrial applications. Equipped with ER25 spindles, these heads handle larger tools and higher torque loads, making them ideal for machining steel, cast iron, and other hard materials. Available in 2–4 spindle configurations, the VH13 Series offers both radial and linear layouts to match complex production requirements.

    The VH13 Series delivers unmatched durability and precision for high-demand drilling environments. Using ER25 spindles, these heads can accommodate tooling up to Ø 16 mm and tap up to M12 in steel. Each model is built with a reinforced housing and precision-ground gearing for synchronized spindle motion, allowing consistent performance at speeds up to 4,000 RPM.

    Ideal for CNC machining centers, automated drilling lines, and fixture-mounted production cells, the VH13 Series is available in multiple configurations to cover a wide range of multi-hole patterns in one operation.

    How These Devices Attach to the Drill Press

    The VH series heads are designed to be compatible with standard pillar drills using several standardised attachment methods to ensure secure and efficient operation. The attachment arrangement depends on the spindle connection fitted to the drill machine, typically Jacobs Taper (B10, B12, B16, B18) or Morse Taper (MT1–MT5). The guide below illustrates the connection components, assembly sequence and information required to specify the correct multi-spindle head configuration.

    How Your Drill Machine Connects to a Multi-Spindle HeadTypical connection arrangements for Jacobs Taper and Morse Taper drill spindles, including the dimensions required to select the correct connection collar and adapter.

    The attachment mechanisms follow established industrial standards and allow the multi-spindle head to be securely mounted to a wide range of production drilling machines. Providing the correct spindle connection details and collar dimensions ensures the head is supplied ready for installation on your machine.

    Installation and Setup

    The VH series heads are designed for quick and easy installation on standard drill presses.

    • Quick Installation: Tooling interfaces like collet chucks and drill sleeves allow for rapid installation of the VH series heads. Operators can swiftly change out heads as needed, enabling different operations without significant delays.
    • Easy Setup: Once the appropriate attachment method (sleeve, collet chuck, or steep taper) is selected, aligning and securing the VH series head is straightforward. This ensures repeatability in positioning and operational accuracy.
