TAKISAWA TCN-2600 L3 CNC LATHE

This is a mid-range CNC turning center equipped for versatile production machining of cylindrical components. The machine accommodates workpieces up to 9.84 inches in length with a 10-inch chuck, capable of accepting bar stock up to 2.91 inches in diameter for automated feeding operations. The 15.75-inch maximum turning diameter provides adequate envelope for medium-sized parts, while the 3,200 RPM spindle speed delivers balanced performance across various material types and cutting conditions. Powered by a 14.75 hp motor, the spindle generates sufficient torque for consistent material removal during roughing and finishing operations. The CNC control system enables precision machining with repeatability capabilities reaching ±0.002 mm or better, essential for industries requiring tight tolerances. The machine's rigid construction and stable spindle dynamics minimize vibration, supporting surface finish capabilities from Ra 1.6 μm in standard turning to finer finishes with optimized parameters. This class of turning center typically features automated tool turrets with multiple tool positions, enabling complex multi-step operations without manual part repositioning. The configuration suits automotive and general industrial applications where IT7-IT8 tolerance levels balance precision with cost-effectiveness. Optional features may include Y-axis capability for off-center machining and driven tools for milling operations, expanding the machine's multi-tasking potential beyond traditional turning. The compact footprint and moderate power requirements make it suitable for job shops and small-to-medium manufacturing facilities requiring flexible production capabilities.
