The TAKAMAZ XWT-8 is a high-precision CNC lathe with an 8-inch chuck, featuring 2 spindles and 2 turrets, imported from Japan. XWT-8 offers exceptional accuracy and efficiency, meeting diverse manufacturing needs with outstanding performance.

Advanced Features:

  • FANUC 0i-TF Plus Type 0 Controller: Ensures reliable and precise control for all machining operations.
  • 21.5-inch Touch Screen: Provides an intuitive and user-friendly interface, making operation simple and convenient.
  • 3-Axis Gantry Loader: Designed to handle a variety of workpieces, enhancing versatility and productivity in your operations.

Enhanced Operability with a Large Touch Panel
The TAKAMAZ XWT-8 features a 21.5-inch touch panel that significantly improves operability during setup. With excellent visibility, this user-friendly interface includes a 3-screen multi-display, allowing operators to switch screens according to their operational needs. The home screen consolidates crucial information such as start conditions, estimated machine stop time, production progress, and machine operating status, enabling efficient status checks. Additionally, traceability data is saved to track changes in machining status, ensuring smooth facility operations.


Faster Loading Times
A new loader system increases the rapid traverse speed on all axes, reducing loading times by 10% compared to existing models. The shortest loading time is now an impressive 5.5 seconds, boosting productivity from workpiece supply to unloading. The loader is available with optional lightweight specifications, where advanced materials replace steel to enhance speed and reduce vibration.


Advanced 3-Axis Loader System
The TAKAMAZ XWT-8 incorporates a new 3-axis loader system, designed for simplicity and efficiency. Central management of the machine and loader is achieved using a unified controller, improving operability. The handle retrace function ensures high safety during operations, and integrating loader operations into NC programs allows flexible handling of operation and timing changes during workpiece setup. These features collectively enhance productivity and ease of use.

Reduced Machining Defects and Energy Consumption
The TAKAMAZ XWT-8 is equipped with the proprietary "Thermony®" thermal displacement correction system, which predicts and corrects the effects of temperature changes on finish dimensions under various conditions. This system minimizes machining defects. The machine's air-cooled construction eliminates the need for cooling water, reducing running costs and energy consumption. The hybrid slideway configuration—sliding friction guideway on the X-axis for high rigidity and roller friction guideway on the Z-axis for precise positioning—improves machining performance while lowering lubricating oil consumption.

The TAKAMAZ XWT-8 stands out as a robust, efficient, and future-oriented precision lathe, ideal for various industrial applications. Its advanced features and user-centric design promise to deliver superior performance and reliability in your manufacturing processes.
