TAKISAWA T-200 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Takisawa T-200 is a dual-spindle CNC turning center engineered for high-precision cylindrical machining and complex component production. This horizontally-configured machine features a main spindle with a maximum turning diameter of 9.450 inches and turning length capacity of 5.120 inches, accommodating an 8-inch chuck for secure workholding. The spindle delivers 15 horsepower at speeds up to 4,000 RPM, enabling efficient material removal across various ferrous and non-ferrous alloys. The machine utilizes a 10-station turret tool carrier, providing rapid tool indexing and reducing cycle times through simultaneous tool positioning. Two-axis CNC control (X and Z axes) facilitates precision contouring, threading, and drilling operations. The X-axis travel spans 6.300 inches with rapid traverse capabilities reaching 945 inches per minute, while the Z-axis provides 7.870 inches of travel at matching rapid rates. This combination enables quick non-cutting moves and efficient workpiece positioning. The system incorporates FANUC 21i-TB controls for reliable operation and seamless integration with optional gantry loaders and chip conveyor systems. Ideal applications include small-to-medium production runs of precision shafts, bushings, fittings, and multi-feature turned components requiring accuracy and repeatability. The compact footprint and automation-compatible design make the T-200 suitable for job shops and dedicated production environments seeking reliable, versatile turning center performance.
