TAKISAWA TPS-3300 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The TAKISAWA TPS-3300 is a specialized 3-axis horizontal machining center engineered for precision piston pin hole machining with synchronized main and rotary spindles. Featuring a maximum turning diameter and length of 4.720", the machine is equipped with a single main spindle operating at 1,100 RPM with 4.80 HP (expandable to 7.30 HP optionally). The innovative design incorporates a high-speed rotary tool spindle reaching 42,000 RPM with 15.30 HP, enabling rapid finishing of complex 3D geometries including bell-shaped and oval profiles. The X, Y, and Z axes deliver rapid traverse rates of 787 IPM with travel distances of 9.050", 9.050", and 10.240" respectively. Designed for automated operation, the machine incorporates TAKISAWA's proprietary piston machining software (TPPF3) allowing anyone to generate programs for intricate 3D machining tasks. The synchronized main spindle and rotary tool work in concert for high-speed finishing of small holes while maintaining mirror-like surface finishes through the machine's spiral scraping methodology. This combination of CNC lathe and ultrahigh-speed machining center advantages makes it ideal for modern light engine applications where piston pin holes require non-circular bell shapes to withstand explosive combustion impacts. The machine's ceramic mechanism and interactive software ensure absolute accuracy required for automotive and Formula 1 engine production, representing world-class precision in piston manufacturing technology.
