2010 BROTHER TC S 2 DN VERTICAL MACHINING CENTERS

Technical Description

The 2010 Brother TC S 2 DN is a 3-axis high-speed tapping center from Brother's TC-S series, designed for precision drilling, tapping, and milling of aluminum and non-ferrous components. The standard configuration features a BT30 taper spindle with a maximum speed of 10,000 RPM as standard; optional spindle packages extend speed to 16,000 RPM or 27,000 RPM for high-speed cutting applications. Axis travels are 500 mm (19.7 inches) in X, 400 mm (15.7 inches) in Y, and 300 mm (11.8 inches) in Z, providing a versatile work envelope for small to mid-size precision parts. The machine is controlled by the Brother CNC-B00 system, which is Fanuc G-code compatible and supports multi-axis control when optional rotary devices are fitted. Rapid traverse rates of 50 m/min across all linear axes deliver fast positioning between operations, keeping cycle times competitive in high-volume production environments. The TC S 2 DN is available in three travel variants: standard (X=500mm), short (X=300mm), and oversized (X=700mm), making it adaptable to a range of production requirements without platform changes. The overall machine footprint for the standard configuration measures 1,560 mm x 2,207 mm (61.4 x 86.9 inches). Standard equipment includes an automatic tool changer with 14 or 21 tool capacity, coolant system, and chip management provisions. The TC S 2 DN is suited to job shops and contract manufacturers processing precision aluminum components, hydraulic manifolds, and electronics housings requiring reliable tapping center performance.
