The manual lathe TAL series is still being manufactured today.
1968 Manual latheTAL-N
This lathe was developed as the pioneer NC lathe in Japan.
1973 Manual latheMORANDO 3PR 9
This large lathe was produced through a technical tie-up with a world-scale large lathe manufacturer in Italy.
1975 CNC latheNX-540
This is the first CNC lathe that adopted DC servomotor for positioning control. Many were sold overseas as well.
1978 CNC latheTX-2
A chucker providing better accessibility to the chuck. The layout of this lathe is the base of present CNC lathes.
1980 CNC latheTS-15
This lathe, equipped with a slant bed for discharging chips smoothly, was called “World famous machine”. With the production of this lathe, TAKISAWA’s technical capability developed significantly.
1981 Machining centerMAC-V2
Full-scale entry into the machining center market. Equipped with a high-speed spindle of 10000 min-1,MAC-V2 boasted its high accuracy clearing the NASA standard while balancing its performance and cost. Afterward, it represented the high technical capability of TAKISAWA. This machine also contributed to open up other than the automobile field.
1982 CNC latheTS-40/50
A large CNC lathe having a slant bed and capable of 820 mm swing.
1983 CNC latheTC-2
Remarkably space-saving machine having the control unit incorporated in its upper part. As being highly accurate, low-priced, and compact, the best-selling TC series has been sold over 30,000 units worldwide.
1983 CNC latheTF-20
1-spindle, 2-turret CNC lathe. With the upper and lower turrets, it realized highly-efficient machining.
1986 Vertical CNC latheTK-2
This vertical CNC lathe series enables machining of odd-form workpieces, which is difficult for horizontal CNC lathes.
1987 Combined machining CNC latheTM-20
This CNC lathe with opposed twin spindle has led to the current TS-4000.
1988 Piston machineTPS-3000
The TPS series has enabled high-speed cutting of oval workpieces such as pistons of automobiles. This series has been used by the world’s three major piston production groups including the F1 top team.
1989 Multi-tasking machineTM-15
A multi-tasking machine with opposed twin spindle and upper/lower turrets.
1990 CNC latheTX-20G
A built-in type high-speed gantry loader developed ahead of other companies to meet the needs for manpower saving.
