Yepasan brand, adjustable and fixed position plate type multi-spindle heads are
designed and manufactured for multi-spindle drilling, reaming, countersinking, spot
facing, chamfering and tapping operations. They are used with very high efficiency
where single spindle drilling operation is not economical. Four different types of heads
cover a wide spectrum considering both drilling capacity and drilling area. The heads
are ideally suited to general and large batch production.

1. Mounting: The head is mounted to the spindle of the drilling machine either by a
flange or clamp type mounting adaptor. Manufactured according to the spindle of the
drilling machine.

2. Driving Mandrel: Hardened steel drive couplings are supplied to suit all types of
machine spindles and manufactured according to the spindle of the drilling machine.

3. Gears: Machine spindle rotation and torque transmitted through drive gear via idler
gear to spindle driver gear. All gears are manufactured from high alloyed steel and
hardened. The involute profile of teeth are ground reducing noise levels to a minimum
level and giving improved smooth running characteristics. Radial and needle bearings
are used to achieve high speeds.
4. Universal Joints: Telescopic universal joints, made from high alloyed steels, are the
assemblies that transmit the power and rotation from driven gears to spindles of the
head. For easy mounting both ends of the joints are equipped with quick-coupling
system. They transmit rotation and torque within the effective radius of adjustment
stated in Table 2.

5. Adjustable Drilling Arms: High tensile aluminum part carries the spindle and its
bearings. Adjustable for position as given in Table 2.

6. Casing: Made of high tensile aluminum, incorporating gearbox and providing

mounting for spindle arms or fixed position plate.

7. Guide Bar Brackets: Two adjustable and removable brackets are used for fixture
alignment to guide pilot shafts of the fixture plate and to eliminate the effect of machine
spindle backlash. Dimensions are given in Table 1.

8. Spindles: All spindles are cylindrical bore type and manufactured according to DIN
55058. Made from cementation steels, case hardened to 1.2mm depth with hardness
HRC 58-62. Radial forces are overcome by needle bearings and axial loads by thrust
bearings.
