TAKISAWA TT-160CM HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Takisawa TT-160CM is a high-performance horizontal machining center featuring dual parallel main spindles, each capable of independent operation for enhanced productivity. Both spindles support a maximum turning diameter of 7.870" and a turning length of 5.160", secured by 6" diameter chucks. Each spindle delivers 10 HP power with maximum speeds up to 6,000 RPM, enabling efficient machining of symmetrical parts or simultaneous multi-side machining. The machine is equipped with two turrets as primary and secondary tool carriers, each accommodating up to 10 turning tools and 5 rotary tools, with rotary tool power rated at 5 HP and rotational speed up to 2,500 RPM. This setup supports up to two simultaneous cutting operations, optimizing cycle times. The TT-160CM operates across six axes, with X, Y, and Z travels of 5.120", 5.120", and 6.500" respectively, matched with rapid traverse rates of 945 inches per minute on all three axes to facilitate high-speed positioning. The twin spindle design, combined with simultaneous front and back machining capabilities and integration options for automation such as gantry loaders, positions this machine for high-volume production with reduced part handling and setup times. Its combination of turning and milling capabilities on both sides of the workpiece supports complex machining tasks efficiently, making it ideal for precision manufacturing demanding high throughput and flexibility in tooling configurations.
