Takamaz Takamaz XG-4

The Takamaz XG-4 is a high-speed gang-tool CNC lathe with a 4-inch collet chuck, engineered for ultra-fast production of small precision turned parts. The gang-type tooling configuration eliminates turret indexing time entirely — all tools are mounted on a single slide and selected by axis positioning alone, making the XG-4 one of the fastest-cycling machines in Takamaz's lineup for simple turned parts.

The built-in motor spindle delivers an impressive 8,000 RPM with 7.5/5.5/3.7 kW of power through a 65 mm bearing bore. The built-in motor design eliminates belt-driven vibration and provides smoother, more precise rotation at high speeds, which translates directly into better surface finish quality on precision components. This spindle technology is typically found on more expensive machines, making the XG-4 an exceptional value proposition for high-speed small-part production.

The gang tool slide provides 200 mm of X-travel and 250 mm of Z-travel with rapid traverse rates of 18 m/min on both axes. The generous travel for a gang-type machine allows accommodation of multiple tool positions across the slide, and the equal rapid rates on both axes ensure efficient tool-to-tool movements regardless of direction. The compact 780 mm machine width and 1,506 x 1,250 mm overall footprint make the XG-4 one of the most space-efficient CNC lathes available.

The Mitsubishi M80 control provides high-speed processing capability that matches the machine's rapid mechanical response. Auto backup functionality with SD card and USB storage ensures programs and parameters are protected. The XG-4's combination of built-in motor spindle, gang tooling, and compact design makes it an ideal building block for high-density automated production cells focused on small precision components.
