Overview

The Nakamura-Tome WT-150II is a two-spindle turning center for 6 in chuck work, with 190 mm (7.5 in) of turning diameter and 515 mm (20.3 in) of turning length. The main spindle is rated 15 / 11 kW at up to 5,000 rpm, and the second spindle 11 / 7.5 kW.

The Ø65 mm option is the main choice to make. It raises bar capacity from 51 mm (2 in) to 65 mm (2.6 in) on the L spindle only, and lowers the top speed from 5,000 rpm to 4,500 rpm. The footprint barely changes, from 3,675 × 2,258.2 × 1,858.5 mm to 3,675 × 2,263.9 × 1,860.2 mm (W × D × H). An 8 in chuck is also listed as an option to the standard 6 in.

Next to the WT-100, which runs both spindles to 6,000 rpm at 11 / 7.5 kW and takes 42 mm (1.7 in) bar, the WT-150II puts more power on the main spindle and takes larger bar. The WT-150II table does not list turrets or tool capacity, so ask Nakamura-Tome for the turret layout before comparing tool counts.

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What does the Ø65 mm option change on the WT-150II?

Bar capacity rises from 51 mm (2 in) to 65 mm (2.6 in), on the L spindle only, and the top speed drops from 5,000 rpm to 4,500 rpm. The footprint grows slightly, to 3,675 × 2,263.9 × 1,860.2 mm (W × D × H).

02 How does the WT-150II differ from the WT-100?

The WT-100 runs both spindles to 6,000 rpm at 11 / 7.5 kW, turns up to 503 mm (19.8 in) and takes 42 mm (1.7 in) bar. The WT-150II has a 15 / 11 kW main spindle at 5,000 rpm, turns up to 515 mm (20.3 in) and takes 51 mm (2 in) bar, or 65 mm (2.6 in) with the Ø65 mm option.

03 How much floor space does the WT-150II need?

The standard build measures 3,675 × 2,258.2 × 1,858.5 mm (W × D × H). Add room for a bar feeder at the left end and for chip conveyor and service access.
