The MS 10 is flexible. It quickly drills any job up to 10 holes in one stroke, so big drilling jobs can be completed quickly and economically. It’s easy to adjust for a variety of multiple hole patterns simply add and adjust drilling heads by sliding them along the splined shaft. A special three drill head is available with drill bits on 1˝centers.

POWERFUL HYDRAULIC DRILLING

A touch to the foot pedal brings the drilling heads down to the table under hydraulic power. The paper is drilled and the heads are released automatically and returned to the starting position. The speed of the heads on the downward stroke is adjustable, providing you with the most efficient drilling and production operations on all types of jobs and paper stocks.
