Tsugami B0205

The Tsugami B0205 is a Ø20 mm (0.8 in) Swiss-type lathe with 5 axes, a back spindle and 21 tool positions, 4 of them live at 8,000 rpm. Its main spindle runs 200-10,000 rpm on 2.2/3.7 kW (2.9/5 hp); the back spindle is faster, at 200-12,000 rpm, on 2.2 kW (3 HP). The figures come from an authorised Tsugami dealer's page.

The listed maximum turning length is 210 mm (8.3 in), and the headstock stroke is given as 45/210 mm (1.8/8.3 in), so a shaft of that length can be made in one chucking. The 45 mm (1.8 in) figure is the short stroke normally quoted for running without the guide bushing, which suits short parts where a shorter remnant matters more than reach.

Driven tooling is the part of the table to read closely. With 4 live positions at 8,000 rpm, the machine covers cross holes, flats and light slotting; parts with many milled features will be limited by the count. The back spindle, at 2.2 kW (3 HP), is sized for finishing the second end rather than heavy back-end cuts.

Among its neighbours, the B0125 is the smaller machine, with Ø12 mm (0.5 in) bar on 1.5/2.2 kW (2/2.9 hp) and the same 21 tool positions. The S206 takes the same Ø20 mm (0.8 in) bar but carries 31/45 tools on 6 axes and weighs 3,750 kg (8,267.3 lb). The B0205 occupies 1,125 × 1,655 × 1,700 mm (44.3 × 65.2 × 66.9 in). The table gives no control model, so confirm it on the quotation.
