TAKISAWA-TAIWAN LA-350 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The TAKISAWA-TAIWAN LA-350 is a robust horizontal machining center optimized for heavy-duty turning operations with a high-performance spindle delivering 35 HP at up to 2,500 RPM. It supports a maximum turning diameter of 21.6" and a turning length of 31.4", accommodating parts up to 12" in chuck diameter and up to 4.6" bar diameter. The spindle features a maximum swing of 30.7", providing flexibility for large workpieces. This model operates on two axes—X and Z—with travel distances of 11.4" and 33.4" respectively, both achieving rapid traverse rates and maximum feed rates of 628 inches per minute, enabling efficient and precise machining. The machine integrates a turret-style primary tool carrier capable of holding up to 12 tools, allowing for versatile turning applications with one simultaneous cutting tool. Designed with a modular structure and rigid boxway for enhanced stability and precision, the LA-350 is suitable for high-accuracy heavy cutting with superior chip removal and thermal displacement control. Its compact footprint makes it ideal for shops requiring space-efficient but powerful turning capacity. Tailstock support is available, further enhancing its capability for longer workpieces. Overall, the TAKISAWA LA-350 combines high torque, precision engineering, and flexible tooling to deliver superior performance in heavy-duty turning center applications.
