The MidDrive Multi-Spindle Automatic Screwdriving Head:
A Multi-Spindle Automatic Screwdriver Machine
Engineered To Suit Your Application.
Carlson Engineering automated screw driving machines are designed to work with a screwfeeder or step feeder, and assist in your assembly automation fastening process by advancing the screw or screws to your product, stopping above it, and then advancing the bit driving the screw or screws to torque or depth. Carlson automatic feed screwdriver systems can be fitted with almost any brand of screwdriver on the market today.

With up to 6 separate spindles for simultaneous fastener driving, and with a torque capacity of over 100Nm & a weight of over 50lb, the MidDrive is a screwdriving force to be reckoned with.

Compatibility
The MidDrive Custom Multi-Spindle Drive Head is intended for use with a blow-feed automatic screwfeeder, or a screw or nut presenter (but can also be configured to drive bolts, pins, rivets, set-screws, and more).
