TAKAMAZ WD-20A/B HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The TAKAMAZ WD-20A/B is a dual-spindle horizontal machining center engineered for high-productivity compound machining operations. It features twin main spindles, each rated at 4,500 RPM and 10 HP, enabling simultaneous two-tool cutting capability to maximize throughput and reduce cycle times. The machine accommodates workpieces up to 8.660" in turning diameter and 3.900" in maximum turning length, with bar stock capacity to 2.000" diameter. The dual turret system provides 10 turning tools and 5 rotary tools per turret, supported by an auxiliary 3 HP rotary tool station on each turret for enhanced versatility in milling and drilling operations. With four axes of CNC control, the machine delivers rapid traverse speeds of 628 IPM across X, Y, and Z axes, ensuring quick positioning and reduced non-cutting time. Travel ranges of 5.710" (X-axis) and 10.240" (Z-axis) provide adequate workspace for complex part geometries. The simultaneous two-tool cutting capability significantly increases productivity compared to single-spindle alternatives, making it ideal for high-volume production of precision components requiring multiple operations. The combination of dual spindles, robust turret capacity, and rapid positioning speeds positions the WD-20A/B as a versatile solution for automotive, aerospace, and general manufacturing applications demanding efficiency and precision in multi-axis machining.
