TAKAMAZ MINI-TURN HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The TAKAMAZ MINI-TURN is a horizontal machining center optimized for precision turning tasks with compact dimensions. It features a single main spindle capable of a maximum turning diameter of 6.7 inches and a turning length of 5 inches. The spindle accepts a maximum bar diameter of 1 inch and supports a chuck diameter of 5 inches with a max swing of 11.8 inches. The spindle rotates up to 4,500 RPM powered by a 3.0 HP motor. The machine incorporates a slide-type primary tool carrier supporting up to 5 turning tools, with one simultaneous cutting tool operational. It has two axes (X and Z) each with 7.87 inches of travel, both capable of rapid traverse and feed rates of 393 inches per minute, enabling efficient and precise material removal. The robust mechanical design supports small-to-medium part fabrication where space-saving and accuracy are crucial. The control system is typically FANUC-based, ensuring reliable CNC integration. This machining center is ideally suited for applications demanding versatility and high-speed turning within a small footprint, such as medical parts, automotive components, and other precision manufacturing sectors. It balances productivity with precision through its combination of spindle power, rapid axis movement, and appropriate tool capacity, making it a practical choice for various production environments requiring a horizontal CNC lathe with moderate capacity.
