TAKISAWA TC-20(L)-L6 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Takisawa TC-20(L)-L6 is a high-precision horizontal machining center designed for diverse turning applications. It features a main spindle with a maximum turning diameter of 9.5 inches and a turning length of up to 23.8 inches, supported by an 8-inch diameter chuck and a 2-inch maximum bar capacity. The spindle operates at speeds up to 4,000 RPM, powered by a 10 HP motor, providing robust cutting capabilities. The machine is equipped with two tool carriers: a primary 8-station turret and a secondary 12-station turret, each capable of handling turning and rotary tools, for optimized tool versatility. It supports single-tool simultaneous cutting with two controlled axes, where the X-axis provides 6.25 inches of travel and the Z-axis offers 25.2 inches of travel. Both axes have a rapid traverse and maximum feed rate of 785 inches per minute, ensuring efficient material removal and cycle times. The TC-20’s construction balances rigidity and precision, making it suitable for machining medium-sized parts with tight tolerances. This model supports advanced CNC control systems, typically Fanuc, enabling precise programming, repeatability, and integration into automated manufacturing environments. Additional features often include hydraulic chucks, tool presetters, tailstock options, chip conveyors, and coolant systems, making it well suited for metalworking shops requiring reliable, high-quality turning performance. Its compact footprint and versatile turret configuration allow for efficient production of complex components used in automotive, aerospace, and general engineering sectors.
