TAKISAWA TA-25BT HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The Takisawa TA-25BT is a high-performance horizontal machining center designed for precision turning operations. It features a single main spindle with a maximum turning diameter of 10.2 inches and a turning length capacity up to 20.8 inches. The main spindle is powered by a 20 HP motor, with an optional upgrade to 25 HP, and rotates at speeds up to 4,000 RPM. It accommodates a 10-inch diameter chuck and supports bar stock up to 3 inches in diameter. The machine also includes a sub spindle capable of turning lengths up to 20.8 inches with a 10 HP motor running at 5,000 RPM. The turret tool carrier holds up to 12 tools, offering single simultaneous cutting capability, and supports live tooling for versatile machining. The machine operates with three axes: X (7.3 inches travel), Y (rapid traverse at 787 inches per minute), and Z (26 inches travel). High rapid traverse rates on X, Y, and Z axes boost productivity. Control is typically managed via a FANUC 18-T CNC system. Additional features often include C-axis capability, a 3-jaw Kitagawa chuck, and options such as a tool presetter, parts catcher, and chip conveyor, enhancing automation and efficiency. This combination of capacity, power, and tooling flexibility makes the TA-25BT suitable for complex turning tasks and small- to medium-sized production runs in demanding manufacturing environments.
