How much does the Tsugami E0252 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 E0252 appears in the listed figures as a 25 mm (0.984 in) Swiss-type lathe with a 5.5 kW (7.4 HP) main spindle running up to 10,000 RPM, a back spindle up to 8,000 RPM and up to 14 front gang positions. Tsugami's current product pages do not show this model name, so nobody has been able to confirm the table against the maker; read every figure below as unconfirmed.
The headline numbers describe a mid-size machine. The listed maximum machining length is 180 mm (7.09 in), and machining diameter equals the 25 mm (0.984 in) bar capacity. A 5.5 kW (7.4 HP) main motor is substantial for that diameter, while the back spindle at 2.2 kW (3.0 HP) is sized for lighter back-end work.
The tool layout row is less clear. It reads as 2-gang tool slides at the front with driven tools on the back spindle side, and the driven tools are listed up to 6,000 RPM. Whether the front gang also carries live tools is not stated, so a part that needs cross milling at the front should not be planned until the layout is confirmed.
The listed control is Fanuc 32i and the axes are given as 5-axis simultaneous. The table puts the machine at approx. 2,600 kg (5,732 lbs) and approx. 2,100 x 1,250 x 1,800 mm. Ask Tsugami for the current model and its published sheet before buying on these figures.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 25 mm (0.984 in) bar capacity with a 5.5 kW (7.4 HP) main spindle in the listed figures
- Back spindle up to 8,000 RPM with 2.2 kW (3.0 HP)
- Maximum machining length of 180 mm (7.09 in)
- Up to 14 front gang positions plus driven tools on the back spindle side
Limitations
- Not on Tsugami's current product pages, so the listed figures are unconfirmed
- Main spindle tops out at 10,000 RPM, which limits surface speed on small diameters
- Driven tools are listed up to 6,000 RPM, slow for small drills and end mills
- The tool layout row does not say whether the front gang has live tools

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Not without checking. The E0252 is not on Tsugami's current product pages, so this table could not be compared with the maker's. Several rows are given as approximate. Ask Tsugami or a dealer for the current model and its published specification.
02
The listed figures give 25 mm (0.984 in) bar capacity and maximum machining diameter, and 180 mm (7.09 in) maximum machining length. The main spindle runs up to 10,000 RPM at 5.5 kW (7.4 HP).
03
The tool configuration row lists 2-gang tool slides at the front and driven tools on the back spindle side, with driven tools up to 6,000 RPM. It does not say that the front gang carries live tools, so confirm the layout before planning front-side milling.
04
The table gives approx. 2,100 x 1,250 x 1,800 mm and approx. 2,600 kg (5,732 lbs). Both are marked approximate, so get the installation drawing from Tsugami before preparing the floor.
