TAKISAWA-T FX-1500Y CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC turning center is engineered for precision manufacturing of cylindrical and bar stock components. The machine features a 21.06-inch machining length, accommodating moderately sized workpieces for production runs. The 6-inch chuck provides secure clamping of bar stock with a maximum capacity of 1.65 inches in diameter, making it suitable for small to medium-sized parts manufacturing. Rated at 6,000 RPM maximum spindle speed, this machine delivers controlled rotational velocity ideal for finishing operations and precision turning of various materials. The CNC control system enables fully automated, repeatable operations with programmable tool paths, reducing setup time and human error while maintaining consistent part tolerances. The combination of these specifications positions this turning center as an efficient solution for shops requiring reliable production capabilities without the footprint or cost of larger industrial systems. The machine's moderate speed range, compact working envelope, and straightforward chuck configuration make it well-suited for job shops, small manufacturers, and contract machine shops handling standard turning, drilling, boring, and threading operations. The CNC automation ensures reproducibility across production batches, supporting both prototype development and medium-volume manufacturing workflows. This class of machine balances operational simplicity with modern computerized control, offering accessibility for operators while maintaining the precision and repeatability demanded by contemporary manufacturing standards.
