Now available from stock from TW Ward CNC Machinery is the Takisawa TT1100GC twin-spindle turning centre and the single-spindle TCC1100GA. The Takisawa TT1100GC is a gantry loaded machine that has been designed to take productivity, precision and performance to a new level while the flexible TCC1100GA features a very small footprint.
The gantry loading and unloading turning cell Takisawa TT1100GC with an in-built component stocking system is the perfect partner for lights-out machining of precision small parts. With both spindles mounted on a single-piece rigid bed casting, this machine incorporates precision hardened and ground box slideways and a high-speed servo turret.
Emphasising the speed of this machine is the ultrafast loading and unloading of parts. Capable of loading components in 1.7 seconds, the loader is positioned at the front of the machining chamber to significantly reduce the loading distance and the spindle moves forward to the loading position, reducing component transition times further. The load/unload system works in tandem with a supply and discharge station that is integrated into the machine envelope to minimise the machine footprint. The station can be configured as a three-guide bar type or as a centre pole type station with the part gripper available as a parallel or swivel type hand. Added to this, the machine incorporates a peripheral modular unit that presents a measuring unit, washing unit, part positioning via a camera system, phase determining unit and a turnover transfer unit.

The machine has a compact footprint of 2.8 by 3.3 m including stocker and swarf conveyor. Within the machine’s envelope is a 6-inch chucking machine that has a maximum turning diameter of 140 mm and a turning length up to 121 mm with X and Z-axis travel of 160 and 260 mm respectively. The machine can produce parts up to 80 mm diameter at high speed. It is driven by a 5.5/3.7 kW spindle motor capable of reaching 4500 rpm and it demonstrates the power and torque levels required for high material removal rates on challenging materials. Flexibility for components that demand one-hit machining is derived from the two 10+10 toolholders that can accommodate square shank tools up to 20 mm and round tools to 25 mm. The one-hit capabilities are further enhanced by a turnover unit that allows simultaneous front and back machining.
With sustainability and the environment in mind Ward CNC introduced the new energy-efficient systems within the Japanese manufactured Takisawa TT1100GC. This includes a regenerative energy system that returns power to the supply when the motor decelerates. Additional environmentally friendly features include an internal lighting shut-off function that reduces standby power, a control panel cooling design that takes natural radiation into account to reduce electric power and much more.

Alongside the Takisawa TT1100GC and also available from stock is the TCC1100GA. With a footprint of just 1.8 m by 2 m and a high-speed loader, the TCC1100GA is a 6 inch chucking machine with a maximum turning diameter of 220 mm and a turning length up to 171 mm with a bar capacity of 42 mm diameter. This single-spindle single turret turning centre demonstrates exceptional flexibility and the machine has the choice of eight tool turret as standard or a 12-tool station is also available. The extremely rigid headstock has been designed for high-torque machining with excellent cutting performance. With a 5.5/3.7 kW spindle motor and a continuous torque rating of 28.3 Nm, the TCC1100GA demonstrates exceptional power and speed for machining the most challenging of components.
Offered with a familiar and powerful Fanuc 0i-TF CNC interface, the multi-function software also incorporates the Raku-Raku loading system, tool life management, tool load monitoring, process capability and machine run information.
