Pibomulti spindles are manufactured in Switzerland using the same ideals as the great precision watchmakers of the area. Pibomulti spindles are designed with flexibility and functionality in mind.
Due to the unique design differences of each Pibomulti spindle the spindle rebuild must be done by technicians who have the experience and knowledge to recognize every factor of the rebuild that can potentially affect the performance of the spindle. Care must be taken to identify worn or damaged parts and strict adherence to the design tolerance must be accomplished.
Northland Tool & Electronics has gained this knowledge through our over 30 years of rebuilding spindles that includes many of the different models of Pibomulti spindles.

The Pibo Multi is a spindle commonly used for tapping holes. The most common cause of failure with the spindle is contamination of the bearings. The spindle has multiple shafts and gears within the housing. The gears are lubricated with grease. The wearing of the gears combined with the grease contaminates the bearings that are in the housing. NTE has looked at the design and now replaces open bearings with sealed bearings. This change will increase the life of the Pibo Multi.
The second most common problem with the Pibo Multi is wear on the bearing shaft journals. The shafts on the Pibo Multi spindle need a "slide fit". The shaft tolerances were exceeding the allowed amount for the bearings allowing slop and giving chatter. To fix this we ground, chrome plated and finish ground the shafts. However we did allow for the slide fit that is needed for the tapping that the spindle performs.
When your Pibo Multi spindle is received we will determine the cause of failure and what steps need to be taken to prevent future failures. Your spindle is then repaired and sent through rigorous quality control procedures that will ensure that you the customer is happy with your rebuilt spindle.
