How much does the Takisawa TCN-2600 cost?

Price estimate

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the Takisawa TCN-2600 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 Takisawa TCN-2600 puts a 10 in (254 mm) chuck and a 74 mm (2.9 in) bar capacity on a lathe that weighs 2,700 kg (5,952 lb) in its short-bed form. Maximum turning diameter is 410 mm (16.1 in), and the two beds, L3 and L6, give 250 mm (9.8 in) and 550 mm (21.7 in) of turning length.

Read next to the TCN-2100, the table shows where the larger chuck is paid for. The TCN-2100 has an 8 in (203 mm) chuck and 51 mm (2.0 in) of bar capacity but turns 300 mm (11.8 in) and 600 mm (23.6 in). Weights, rapids and the 11 / 9 kW (14.8 / 12.1 hp) motor rating are the same on both, so the TCN-2600 is the pick when bar or chucking diameter matters more than length. A 90 mm (3.5 in) bar capacity is listed as an option, subject to the chuck and cylinder fitted.

Spindle speed deserves a second look. The standard figure is 3,200 rpm and the listed option is 2,500 rpm, a slower spindle and not a faster one. The motor is described as wide-range, rated 11 kW at 30-min and 9 kW continuous. For a 10 in chuck swinging parts up to 410 mm that speed range is appropriate, but a shop planning small-diameter bar work at high surface speed will be held back by 3,200 rpm.

The turning machine has an 8-station direct-mount turret, and the table offers no larger turret for it. The TCN-2600CM is the turning and milling version, with a 12-station rotary-tool turret, tools driven at 6,000 rpm and a 5.5 / 3.7 kW (7.4 / 5.0 hp) tool motor. It trades away envelope: 280 mm (11.0 in) of turning diameter, and 158 mm (6.2 in) or 458 mm (18.0 in) of turning length. CM machines are listed at 2,800 and 3,300 kg.

Floor space is 1,750 × 1,543 mm (68.9 × 60.7 in) for the L3 and 2,095 × 1,543 mm (82.5 × 60.7 in) for the L6, at 1,700 mm (66.9 in) high. A hydraulic tailstock is optional. The loader version, the TCN-2600G, handles φ200 × 140 mm workpieces of 5 kg (×2) from a 14-pallet stocker rated at 70 kg per pallet with a 400 mm stacking height.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

74 mm (2.9 in) bar capacity as standard and 90 mm (3.5 in) as an option, against 51 mm (2.0 in) on the TCN-2100
10 in (254 mm) chuck with 410 mm (16.1 in) of turning diameter at a machine weight of 2,700 kg (5,952 lb) on the L3
Wide-range spindle motor rated 11 / 9 kW (14.8 / 12.1 hp), 30-min against continuous
TCN-2600CM adds a 12-station rotary-tool turret with 6,000 rpm driven tools
TCN-2600G gantry loader takes 5 kg workpieces and a stocker rated at 70 kg per pallet
Rapids of X 24 / Z 30 m/min (945 / 1,181 in/min)

Limitations

Turning length is 250 mm (9.8 in) on the L3 and 550 mm (21.7 in) on the L6, shorter than the TCN-2100 at 300 mm (11.8 in) and 600 mm (23.6 in)
The only listed spindle option is slower, 2,500 rpm, so 3,200 rpm is the ceiling
Only an 8-station turret is listed for the turning version; 12 stations come with the CM rotary-tool turret, which cuts turning diameter to 280 mm (11.0 in)
Hydraulic tailstock is an option on both bed lengths

Best For

Bar work up to 74 mm (2.9 in), or 90 mm (3.5 in) with the option Chucking parts up to 410 mm (16.1 in) on a 10 in (254 mm) chuck Flanges, rings and discs within 250 mm (9.8 in) of turning length on the L3 Turn-mill parts up to 280 mm (11.0 in) in diameter on the TCN-2600CM Loader-fed production of parts up to 5 kg on the TCN-2600G

Frequently Asked Questions

01 How much bar can the TCN-2600 pass through the spindle?

Standard bar capacity is 74 mm (2.9 in), and 90 mm (3.5 in) is listed as an option. The table adds that the figure depends on the chuck and cylinder fitted, so confirm the actual through-hole of the chuck package on the machine being offered. For comparison, the TCN-2100 is listed at 51 mm (2.0 in).

02 Why would I choose the TCN-2600 over the TCN-2100?

For the 10 in (254 mm) chuck and the larger bar capacity. The TCN-2100 has an 8 in (203 mm) chuck and 51 mm (2.0 in) of bar capacity, and its beds turn 300 mm (11.8 in) and 600 mm (23.6 in). The TCN-2600 turns 250 mm (9.8 in) and 550 mm (21.7 in). If the parts fit an 8 in chuck and need the length, or need the 5,000 rpm spindle option, the TCN-2100 is the closer match.

03 What are the spindle speed and power figures?

3,200 rpm is the standard maximum speed and a 2,500 rpm spindle is the listed option. The wide-range motor is rated 11 kW (14.8 hp) at 30-min and 9 kW (12.1 hp) continuous. On the TCN-2600CM, the rotary tools run to 6,000 rpm on a separate 5.5 / 3.7 kW (7.4 / 5.0 hp) motor, 15-min against continuous.

04 What does the TCN-2600CM give up compared with the turning version?

Envelope. Maximum turning diameter is 280 mm (11.0 in) on the CM against 410 mm (16.1 in), and turning length is 158 mm (6.2 in) on the L3 or 458 mm (18.0 in) on the L6, against 250 mm (9.8 in) and 550 mm (21.7 in). In return it has a 12-station rotary-tool turret. The CM machines are listed at 2,800 kg and 3,300 kg.

05 How much floor space does the TCN-2600 need?

The L3 bed is listed at 1,750 × 1,543 mm (68.9 × 60.7 in) and the L6 bed at 2,095 × 1,543 mm (82.5 × 60.7 in). Both are 1,700 mm (66.9 in) high. Weight is 2,700 kg (5,952 lb) for the L3 and 3,200 kg (7,055 lb) for the L6. The TCN-2600G loader version, with its 14-pallet stocker, will need more room than these figures, and the table does not give its footprint.
