Our best estimate for a mill-turn / multi-tasking machine in this class — not a quote from Nakamura-Tome. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Nakamura-Tome NTY3-100V is a three-turret turning center in which all 3 turrets carry a Y-axis, giving up to 72 stations on a machine sized for a 6 in chuck. It turns up to 200 mm (7.9 in) in diameter and 588 mm (23.1 in) in length, and its spindle runs to 6,000 rpm on 11 / 7.5 kW. ChronoCut is listed as standard.
Three Y-axis turrets are the whole point of this machine. With three tool carriers able to reach off-centre features, a small, feature-dense part has Y-axis tools available on all three turrets, and with 72 stations a part needing dozens of tools can be run without swapping holders between jobs. The trade is size: the envelope and spindle are those of a small machine, so the extra turrets pay off in tool count and Y-axis reach rather than in part size.
Standard bar capacity is 42 mm (1.7 in). The Ø51 mm option takes 51 mm (2 in) bar and can be paired with a 15 / 11 kW motor in place of 11 / 7.5 kW. The Ø65 mm option, L spindle only, passes 65 mm (2.6 in) bar with top speed reduced to 5,000 rpm.
The frame measures 3,864.2 × 2,245.7 × 2,255.3 mm (W × D × H). The WY-100V is listed with the same 200 mm (7.9 in) by 588 mm (23.1 in) envelope and 6,000 rpm spindle, on a 3,849.1 mm wide frame, but its table names no third turret. For bigger parts with the same three-turret idea, the NTY3-150V is listed at Ø225 mm (8.9 in) of turning diameter, 685 mm (27 in) of length and 15 / 11 kW.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Three turrets, all with Y-axis, for off-centre work from three tool carriers
- Up to 72 stations, enough to keep many jobs tooled at once
- ChronoCut listed as standard equipment
- 6,000 rpm spindle suited to small diameters
- Bar capacity can be raised to 51 mm (2 in), or 65 mm (2.6 in) on the L spindle
Limitations
- Standard bar capacity is only 42 mm (1.7 in)
- Turning diameter is limited to 200 mm (7.9 in) on a 6 in chuck
- 11 / 7.5 kW standard power limits heavy cuts; 15 / 11 kW needs the Ø51 mm option
- The Ø65 mm option is L spindle only and lowers top speed to 5,000 rpm

Frequently Asked Questions
01
All 3. The table lists three turrets with Y-axis and up to 72 stations in total. That lets off-centre holes, flats and slots be cut from any of the three, which matters on parts with many such features.
02
The NTY3-150V is the larger machine, listed at Ø225 mm (8.9 in) of turning diameter and 685 mm (27 in) of length, with 15 / 11 kW and up to 72 stations. The NTY3-100V turns 200 mm (7.9 in) and 588 mm (23.1 in) on 11 / 7.5 kW with a 6 in chuck.
03
42 mm (1.7 in) is standard at 6,000 rpm. The Ø51 mm option gives 51 mm (2 in) bar, with 15 / 11 kW available. The Ø65 mm option, L spindle only, gives 65 mm (2.6 in) bar at 5,000 rpm.
04
It measures 3,864.2 × 2,245.7 × 2,255.3 mm (W × D × H). Add room for a bar feeder behind the spindle and access to all three turrets for tool setting.
