TAKISAWA TK-25 TURRET VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC vertical machining center features a maximum main spindle turning diameter of 11.4 inches and a turning length of 12.6 inches, accommodating workpieces up to an 8-inch chuck diameter and a maximum swing of 15.7 inches. The spindle is powered by a 25 HP motor, running at speeds up to 2,000 RPM, enabling efficient machining of medium-sized parts. It employs an 8-station primary tool carrier and a 6-station secondary tool carrier, each supporting up to 8 and 6 tools respectively, both capable of turning and rotary operations for versatile cutting processes. The vertical machining center operates on two linear axes (X and Z), with an X-axis travel of 15.7 inches and a Z-axis travel of 12.6 inches, providing precision positioning with maximum feed rates of 197 inches per minute and rapid traverse rates of 591 inches per minute for both axes. Only one cutting tool may be used simultaneously, in line with typical 2-axis CNC vertical machining center functionality. This configuration makes it suitable for producing precise cylindrical components with moderate complexity, benefiting from automated tool changes and controlled spindle speed for consistent, high-quality results. The machine's capabilities align with industry standards for mid-range CNC turning centers, balancing power, size, and versatility for turning operations requiring high repeatability and tooling flexibility.
