    • Description
    • Additional Info

    Each VH25 head uses a precision gear train for constant, equal spindle speed and accurate center‑to‑center holding. The catalog page provides dimensional references (body collar, spindle pattern drawings) and the DIN 55058 spindle interface callout (⌀36) used for tooling/adapter fitment. Model variants (VH252, VH253L, VH253, VH254) and weights are listed directly on the same page.

    How These Devices Attach to the Drill Press

    The VH series heads are designed to be compatible with standard pillar drills using several standardized attachment methods to ensure secure and efficient operation. The attachment mechanisms follow DIN standards, which dictate the type of tooling interfaces that can be used. Below is an explanation of the DIN standards that are applicable and how they affect the attachment of the device to the drill press:

    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.
