How much does the Spinner TTS36 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Spinner TTS36 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
The Spinner TTS36 has the smallest bar capacity of the TTS models: a two-turret lathe on a 90-degree slant bed that takes 36 mm (1.4 in) bar, with a maximum turning diameter of 250 mm (9.8 in) and a maximum turning length of 450 mm (17.7 in).
Two turrets on a part this small are about cycle time. With both in the cut, operations that would queue on a single-turret lathe can overlap. Axis travels are 205 mm (8.1 in) in X, 90 mm (3.5 in) in Y and 450 mm (17.7 in) in Z, and the turrets take BMT45 tooling. The Y travel is there for off-centre holes and flats. Spinner's table gives no driven-tool speed, no spindle speed and no spindle power for the TTS36, so those figures have to be requested before a cycle time can be estimated.
The choice inside the series is mostly about bar size and length. The TTS52 lists the same 450 mm (17.7 in) turning length and 250 mm (9.8 in) turning diameter with a 52 mm (2.0 in) bar capacity, so the reason to pick the TTS36 is stock that stays at 36 mm (1.4 in) and below. Ask Spinner what the smaller spindle gives in return, since the table lists no speeds. The TTS42 is the longer machine, at 600 mm (23.6 in) of turning length with a 42 mm (1.7 in) bar capacity.
The control is Siemens or Fanuc, and Robobox is the automation Spinner lists for the model.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Two turrets working on parts up to 250 mm (9.8 in) in diameter and 450 mm (17.7 in) long
- Y axis with 90 mm (3.5 in) of travel for off-centre features
- BMT45 tooling system on a 90-degree slant bed
- Control is a choice of Siemens or Fanuc, and Robobox automation is listed for the model
Limitations
- Bar capacity is 36 mm (1.4 in); the TTS52 takes 52 mm (2.0 in) on the same listed turning length and diameter
- Turning length stops at 450 mm (17.7 in), where the TTS42 reaches 600 mm (23.6 in)
- Two turrets are the only configuration listed, while the turret row of the TTS42 reads 2 - 3
- Spinner's page states no spindle speed, spindle power or driven-tool figures for the TTS36

Frequently Asked Questions
01
36 mm (1.4 in). Larger parts can be chucked up to the maximum turning diameter of 250 mm (9.8 in), and the maximum turning length is 450 mm (17.7 in). If the stock is larger than 36 mm (1.4 in), the TTS52 lists the same turning length and diameter with a 52 mm (2.0 in) bar capacity.
02
Two. Both use the BMT45 tooling system. Spinner's table for the TTS36 does not list other turret configurations, unlike the TTS42, whose turret row reads 2 - 3. It also does not describe how the two turrets are arranged around the spindle, so ask for the layout drawing.
03
X travel is 205 mm (8.1 in), Y travel is 90 mm (3.5 in) and Z travel is 450 mm (17.7 in). The Z travel equals the maximum turning length. The bed is a 90-degree slant bed.
04
The control is Siemens or Fanuc, chosen at order. Robobox is the automation Spinner lists for the model. The table states no capacity for it, so check it against your part size and batch length with Spinner.
