Sharp TMV-FC-2

Q: How much does the Sharp TMV-FC-2 cost?

The price estimate for the Sharp TMV-FC-2 is uncertain: we have no price for it that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so we give no figure. Configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/sharp-tmv-fc-2#price; the request is passed to Sharp or an authorised dealer.

Price estimate

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the Sharp TMV-FC-2 that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.

Overview

FC marks the control. The Sharp TMV-FC-2 is the two-axis TMV knee mill fitted with a FAGOR 8055i CNC in place of the MILLPWR G2 used on the MP models, and the choice between them is mostly a choice of programming style.

Sharp says the FAGOR CNC has G code and conversational type programming with Teach-In Mode. Teach-in is the feature the MP pages do not mention: the operator moves the machine to a position by hand and stores it as a program step, which suits repair work and parts made from a sample instead of a drawing. Shops whose programmers already know Fagor will also find the 8055i familiar.

Mechanically nothing is different. The table is 10 x 54 in (254 x 1,371 mm), with 31 in (787 mm) of X travel and 15.5 in (393 mm) of Y on precision ball screws. The R-8 spindle has 3 hp (2.25 kW) and runs 60~4500 rpm. Ram travel is 18.5 in (470 mm) and knee travel 15.3 in (390 mm).

The quill is the manual axis, with a digital readout; Sharp's overview gives 5" of travel in that direction. Weight is 2,860 lb (1,300 kg), and the supply row reads 3 kVA/8 amps. Coolant, a power draw bar and a work light are options.

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What control does the TMV-FC-2 have?

A FAGOR 8055i CNC with two axes of control, longitudinal and cross. Sharp states that it has G code and conversational type programming with Teach-In Mode. The standard accessory list includes 2 axes ball screws and servo drives.

02 How is the TMV-FC-2 different from the TMV-MP-2?

The control. The TMV-MP-2 uses the Acu-Rite MILLPWR G2; the TMV-FC-2 uses the FAGOR 8055i. Both have a 10 x 54 in (254 x 1,371 mm) table, 31 in (787 mm) and 15.5 in (393 mm) of travel and a 3 hp (2.25 kW) R-8 spindle. The TMV-MP-2 is listed at 3500 lb (1587 kg) and the TMV-FC-2 at 2,860 lb (1,300 kg).

03 What are the spindle figures of the TMV-FC-2?

R-8 taper, 3 hp (2.25 kW), 60~4500 rpm variable speed. The quill is 3.5 in (90 mm) in diameter with feeds of 0.0015/0.003/0.006 in (0.04/0.08/0.16 mm) per revolution, and the head tilts 90° left and right and 45° up and down.

04 How far does the spindle reach on the TMV-FC-2?

With 18.5 in (470 mm) of ram travel the spindle center sits 13~31.5 in (330~800 mm) from the column. Spindle nose to table top is 6.5~22.4 in (165~570 mm), adjusted with 15.3 in (390 mm) of knee travel.
