Our best estimate for a cnc lathes / turning center in this class — not a quote from Tsugami. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Tsugami M06DY-II is the Y-axis version of the 12-station M06 lathe. It takes 51 mm (2.01 in) bar in a 6 in chuck, turns up to 260 mm (10.2 in) in diameter and 380 mm (15.0 in) in length, and adds a third axis to the rapid traverse row: 12 m/min on Y alongside 24 m/min on X and 27 m/min on Z.
A Y axis moves turret tools off the spindle centreline, which is what milling a flat, a keyway or an off-centre hole requires once the spindle is holding the part still. On a two-axis lathe those features go to a mill as a second operation. The Y rapid is half the X rate, which costs little on parts where Y moves are brief.
The extra axis shows up in the machine itself. The M06DY-II weighs 5,200 kg (11,464 lb), where the M06D-II without Y weighs 4,700 kg (10,362 lb), and it is 1,930 mm (76.0 in) high on a 2,334 × 2,050 mm (91.9 × 80.7 in) base. Measure the ceiling and any overhead crane path before delivery.
The spindle is the same as on the plain D: 4,500 rpm (rated 4,000 rpm) on 7.5/11 kW. What the published table does not give is the Y stroke or any driven-tool speed and power, and those two figures decide how large an off-centre feature can be cut and how hard. Get them from Tsugami for the parts you have in mind. If the work also needs back-end operations, the M06SD-II adds a sub-spindle instead, with an A axis at 30 m/min.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Y axis at 12 m/min for off-centre features without a second machine
- Same 51 mm (2.01 in) bar, 260 mm (10.2 in) diameter and 380 mm (15.0 in) length as the M06D-II, so nothing is lost on the turning side
- 12-station turret, so the Y-axis tools do not crowd out the turning tools
- 7.5/11 kW spindle with a 4,500 rpm (rated 4,000 rpm) maximum
- X and Z rapids of 24 m/min and 27 m/min
Limitations
- Y stroke is not given in the table, so the size of off-centre features it can reach is unknown until Tsugami confirms it
- No driven-tool speed or power is listed
- Y rapid is 12 m/min, half the X rate
- Weighs 5,200 kg (11,464 lb) and stands 1,930 mm (76.0 in) high
- No sub-spindle; the M06SD-II covers back-end work with its own spindle

Frequently Asked Questions
01
It lets turret tools move off the spindle centreline, at up to 12 m/min, so features such as flats, slots and off-centre holes can be cut while the part is still in the chuck. The table does not state the Y stroke or the driven-tool rating, so confirm both against your largest off-centre feature.
02
The M06D-II is listed at 4,700 kg (10,362 lb) and the M06DY-II at 5,200 kg (11,464 lb). The Y version is also taller, at 1,930 mm (76.0 in), which matters for low ceilings and crane access.
03
They share the 12-station turret, 380 mm (15.0 in) turning length, Y axis at 12 m/min and 5,200 kg (11,464 lb) weight. The M08DY-II takes 65 mm (2.56 in) bar in an 8 in chuck and turns to 280 mm (11.0 in); the M06DY-II takes 51 mm (2.01 in) in a 6 in chuck and turns to 260 mm (10.2 in).
04
A 6 in chuck spindle that runs to 4,500 rpm, rated 4,000 rpm, on 7.5/11 kW. Bar capacity is 51 mm (2.01 in). The spindle rating is the same as on the M06D-II, so the Y version gives up no turning capability.
