Overview
The B0205-V is a 20 mm, 5-axis chucker convertible Swiss built with Tsugami’s opposed gang type tool post and a rigid cast iron frame.
This Swiss CNC automatic lathe offers a total of 21 tool positions: 9 OD tool positions and 12 fixed tool positions (optional 2 rotary positions for rear) for flexible 5-axis machining. The B0205-V has 10,000 rpm main and 12,000 rpm sub spindle speeds. It also has front and back spindle simultaneous machining capabilities, a proven method for reducing cycle time.
The Tsugami B0205-V is CONVERTIBLE and may be run as a traditional sliding headstock Swiss Style Lathe using the guide bushing or run without the guide bushing with the addition of an optional chucker kit. When run in chucker mode, the turning center can use drawn bar stock instead of centerless ground stock, dramatically reducing remnant size and increasing shop flexibility.
