VH25 Series Multi‑Spindle Drill Heads

Please contact for prices

The VH25 Series delivers heavy‑duty, synchronized multi‑spindle drilling for demanding production cells. Available in 2‑, 3‑ and 4‑spindle configurations (linear or radial layouts), these compact heads achieve precise, repeatable hole patterns with a maximum drilling capacity icon of ⌀28 shown in the catalog. Typical applications include transfer lines, CNC gantries, and fixture‑mounted stations.

    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 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.
