The growth of Indian manufacturing sector depends largely on its productivity & quality. Productivity depends upon many factors, one of the major factors being manufacturing efficiency with which the operation /activities are carried out in the organization. Productivity can be improved by reducing the total machining time, combining the operations etc. In case of mass production where variety of jobs is less and quantity to be produced is huge, it is very essential to produce the job at a faster rate. This is not possible if we carry out the production by using general purpose machines. The best way to improve the production rate (productivity) alongwith quality is by use of special purpose machine. Usefulness and performance of the existing radial drilling machine will be increased by designing and development of twin spindle drilling head attachment. Human force is required to drill the hole, drilling depth cannot be estimated properly, job may spoil due to human errors, and different size holes cannot be drilled without changing the drill bit. Consumes lot of time for doing repeated multiple jobs, these all are the drawbacks. To overcome all these problems, this automated drilling machine is designed which is aimed to drill the holes automatically over a job according to the drilling depth. The main concept of this machine is to drill the holes over particular jobs repeatedly at different depths, sequence is maintained. As the machine contains drill motor, the movement is controlled accurately. This paper deals with such development undertaken for similar job under consideration alongwith industrial case study
