Overview
The Tsugami M06SY-II is the fully equipped 6 in model of the M06 line, combining a sub-spindle with a Y axis. Its rapid traverse row lists four axes: 24 m/min on X, 27 m/min on Z, 12 m/min on Y and 30 m/min on A. Bar capacity is 51 mm (2.01 in), maximum turning diameter 260 mm (10.2 in) and maximum turning length 380 mm (15.0 in), with a 12-station turret.
The value of the combination is that a part can leave the machine finished on all faces. The main spindle (7.5/11 kW, 4,500 rpm, rated 4,000 rpm) turns the first side; the Y axis brings tools off centre for flats and cross features; the sub-spindle (5.5/7.5 kW, same speeds, 6 in chuck) takes the part for its second side. Each of the simpler variants leaves one of those steps for another machine or another chucking.
The price in metal is visible in the weight. The M06SY-II weighs 5,600 kg (12,346 lb). The M06DY-II, with Y but no sub-spindle, weighs 5,200 kg (11,464 lb), and the plain M06D-II 4,700 kg (10,362 lb). Footprint is 2,474 × 2,050 × 1,930 mm (97.4 × 80.7 × 76.0 in), the 1,930 mm height being that of the Y-axis versions.
Cycle planning needs care with one turret. All 12 stations serve first-side, off-centre and second-side work, so the tool list has to be laid out for the whole part at once. The table does not give the Y stroke or the driven-tool speed and power; get both from Tsugami before committing a part with large off-centre features.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Sub-spindle and Y axis on one 6 in machine, so parts can come off finished on all faces
- Four rapid axes: 24 m/min X, 27 m/min Z, 12 m/min Y and 30 m/min A
- Main spindle 7.5/11 kW, sub-spindle 5.5/7.5 kW, both to 4,500 rpm (rated 4,000 rpm)
- Same 51 mm (2.01 in) bar and 380 mm (15.0 in) turning length as the M06D-II
- 6 in chuck on both spindles
Limitations
- Weighs 5,600 kg (12,346 lb), more than the M06DY-II at 5,200 kg (11,464 lb) or the M06D-II at 4,700 kg (10,362 lb)
- 1,930 mm (76.0 in) tall, so check ceiling height and crane clearance
- One 12-station turret has to carry tools for every operation
- Y stroke and driven-tool rating are not in the table

Frequently Asked Questions
01
A sub-spindle. It carries a 6 in chuck, runs to 4,500 rpm (rated 4,000 rpm) on 5.5/7.5 kW and moves on an A axis at 30 m/min. The M06DY-II has the same Y axis at 12 m/min and the same main spindle, but finishes the back of the part in a second chucking. The M06DY-II weighs 5,200 kg (11,464 lb) against 5,600 kg (12,346 lb).
02
Its rapid traverse row lists X at 24 m/min, Z at 27 m/min, Y at 12 m/min and A at 30 m/min, plus the two spindles. The table does not give axis strokes, so ask Tsugami for the Y travel in particular.
03
5,600 kg (12,346 lb) on a footprint of 2,474 × 2,050 × 1,930 mm (97.4 × 80.7 × 76.0 in). The 1,930 mm height is worth checking against doorways and overhead cranes on the route in.
04
Only if the parts need off-centre features and second-side work. The M06D-II has the same 12-station turret, 51 mm (2.01 in) bar and 380 mm (15.0 in) length on a single spindle with no Y axis, and weighs 4,700 kg (10,362 lb). For simple turned parts the extra axes sit idle.
