TAIKAN HPT08-1000M CNC LATHE

This is a mid-sized CNC turning center designed for precision production work. With a swing diameter of 21.65 inches and maximum turning diameter of 15.75 inches, it accommodates medium-scale workpieces while maintaining compact footprint dimensions of 196.85 x 74.8 x 94.49 inches. The 39.37-inch machining length provides substantial capacity for complex turned and milled parts. Operating at a maximum spindle speed of 4,500 RPM with 20.1 horsepower, the machine delivers adequate power and torque for versatile machining operations including facing, threading, knurling, drilling, boring, and taper turning. The 1.97-inch bar capacity supports efficient stock material utilization for high-volume production runs. At 13,669.44 pounds, the machine's rigid construction ensures stability during heavy-duty machining and maintains high precision during high-speed feedrates. CNC control enables automated tool selection and positioning through a multi-station tool turret, eliminating manual re-clamping and minimizing potential errors. The combination of specifications positions this lathe for diverse industrial applications requiring reliable repeatability and tight tolerances, from automotive transmission components to general precision manufacturing. Its balanced performance envelope—moderate swing capacity, substantial machining length, and solid power delivery—makes it suitable for job shops and small to mid-size production facilities seeking economical precision turning capabilities.
