Atlas Copco LBD16M / LBP16M Modular Drills

Atlas Copco LBD16M / LBP16M Modular Drills

The Atlas Copco LBD16M / LBP16M family includes modular drill motor units and drill heads for industrial workstations.

It is designed to adapt the drilling setup to the application, including use with 90°, 45°, and 30° angle heads.

Key Features

• Modular design: The family combines drill motor units with modular drill heads, so the setup can be matched to the application.
• Angle-head options: Available 90°, 45°, and 30° heads help when access is limited or a different working angle is needed.
• Short and standard configurations: The collet-head range includes both short and standard versions for different space and access requirements.
• Collet size range: Available heads cover 5.0 mm, 6.6 mm, and 8.0 mm collet capacities depending on the model.
• Built-in speed ratio: Each angle head has a defined speed ratio to match the free speed to the head configuration.
• Multiple ordering options: The series includes different LBD16M and LBP16M model variants with separate ordering numbers for selection.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right model in the LBD16M / LBP16M family?
Step 1: Decide whether the setup calls for an LBD16M or LBP16M unit.
Step 2: Select the required model variant from the available range.
Step 3: Match the angle head and collet capacity to the drilling task and access conditions.

When should I use a 90° head?
A 90° head is a good fit when you need right-angle drilling or a very compact setup in a tight area.

Why choose a 45° or 30° head?
45° and 30° heads are useful when you need easier access to the work area or a more comfortable angle relative to the assembly surface.

Does every head fit every model?
The family is built around modular drill heads and motor units.
The motor unit, angle head, and collet capacity should be matched to the required configuration.

What should I know about speed selection?
Angle heads have a defined speed ratio, and the free speed is determined by the head used.
The setup should be chosen according to the application’s speed requirement.

What should I include when ordering this product family?
Typically you select the LBD16M or LBP16M unit first, then choose the appropriate drill head with the required angle and collet capacity.
