TAKISAWA TT-160 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The TAKISAWA TT-160 Horizontal Machining Center is a twin-spindle CNC lathe designed for high-efficiency production with two independent spindles, each rated at 10 HP and capable of speeds up to 6,000 RPM. It accommodates a maximum turning diameter of 7.87" and a maximum turning length of 5.16", supported by dual 6" chucks. The machine features two turret tool carriers, each holding up to 10 tools for turning and rotary operations, enabling simultaneous use of two cutting tools to enhance productivity. It operates on a 4-axis system with X, Y, and Z axis travels of 5.12", 5.12", and 6.5" respectively, all with rapid traverse and maximum feed rates up to 945 ipm, ensuring swift and precise machining operations. The dual-turret configuration supports complex part machining by allowing multiple tools to operate without interruption. The TT-160 is ideal for small to medium workpieces requiring high precision and efficient cycle times, facilitated further by its twin-spindle design which enables parallel simultaneous machining to double throughput compared to single spindle machines. This configuration also supports automated loading and unloading systems, such as a gantry loader, streamlining workflow and reducing manual intervention. The Takisawa TT-160 is well-suited for mass production environments requiring symmetrical machining and multi-process capabilities, including turning and milling integration. It balances robust construction and advanced control to deliver consistent accuracy and high productivity in demanding manufacturing settings.
