MULTISPINDLE HEADS

Multiple Spindle Heads are attachments to drill or tap multiple holes in a set pattern. They can be attached to most machines with standardized adapters and drive components.

Choose from our large adjustable head selection, or contact us with your specific fixed center requirements. Even low-volume hold drilling may warrant a 2-spindle head to double the production.

Fixed Center Heads

Fixed center heads are used for multiple holes, even with different diameters or threads with precise gear drives based on spacings and RPM. High quality is required to use solid carbide tools and drill WITHOUT guide bushings, which is SOTECH standard. The components system is standardized and thus allows for quick delivery and long-term parts availability. Made according to customer specifications.

Delivery includes a set of collets, wrench set, and parts list

Adjustable Center-Distance Drill Heads

Economical, quick delivery, and easy to install. Made to ISO 9000 standards and CMM-inspected. The best way to improve production on conventional machines is with an adjustable center drill head.

Our best selling head is the 2-Spindle Model 802, 3/8” capacity collet ER16.

Delivery includes a set of collets, wrench set, and parts list

The feed and speed “myth” when using multispindle heads

See example below:

Single spindle in operation equals 100% feed, RPM = 10 seconds per hole
2-spindle drill head in operation equals 70% feed, RPM = 13 seconds for 2 holes (35% increase in production)
3-spindle drill head in operation equals 50% feed, RPM = 15 seconds for 3 holes (50% increase in production)

We can supply complete adaptions to most feed units, industrial-type drill presses, and Toolroom milling machines.

SOTECH multispindle drilling heads, properly applied, are “money makers” and will pay for themselves within weeks.
