How much does the Tsugami B026V-III cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a swiss-type lathe in this class — not a quote from Tsugami. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Tsugami B026V-III is a 26 mm (1.024 in) sliding-headstock lathe with a guide bushing and a vertical gang tool post, run by a FANUC 0i-TF. The listed table stops there: it has not been checked against Tsugami and gives no spindle speeds, axis count, tool count, headstock stroke, motor rating or weight.
The vertical gang post is the row that sets this machine apart. Tools stacked in a vertical gang are selected by a short axis move rather than a turret index, which keeps tool-to-tool time low on parts with many short operations. The cost is that the number of tools is set by the height of the gang, and with no tool count listed, the tooling layout is the first thing to ask for. The guide bushing supports long, slender work in bar up to 26 mm (1.024 in), but how long a part can be made per chucking is not stated.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Vertical gang tool post selects tools with a short axis move instead of a turret index
- Guide bushing on a sliding headstock supports long parts in 26 mm (1.024 in) bar
Limitations
- Spindle speeds, axes, tool count, headstock stroke, motor power and weight are not in the listed table

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The listed table describes the tool post as a vertical gang tool post. Gang tooling selects the next tool with a short axis move, which keeps idle time down on short-cycle parts. Ask for the tooling layout, since this table gives no tool count.
02
The listed table gives a bar capacity of 26 mm (1.024 in) and a FANUC 0i-TF control. It gives no spindle speeds or motor rating, so get the specification sheet for the exact machine before quoting work on it.
