Takumi from taiwan manufactures aa complete range of vertical machining centrescenters are manufactured by takumi from taiwan . The complete design and technology is from dai-ichi, japan, and hence tthe machines are characterised by a robust heavy duty construction similar to japanese machines, since the complete design and technology is from dai-ichi, japan, . Takumi, in a short span of time, has built-up a very good reputation all over the world as a manufacturer of rigid, high quality vertical machining centres. Takumi also supplies offers a complete range of vertical machining centres starting from a table size of 1,000 x 510 mm to 2,400 x 800 mm in a range of 5 models. This range is being expanded further to cater to increasing demand of customers for larger machines. Some of the technical features are provided by these vertical machining centers which include: the takumi v-8 features flat rectangular hardened and ground guideways for x, y and z axes with turcite ® lining on mating surfaces which. This provides large bearing areas for the guideways resulting in extremely high rigidity and ensures vibration-free cutting on steel. The unique 4 turcite ® quoted slideways on the base for the saddle movement enable machining at any position along x axis without overhang. A y axis travel of 510 mm which is unique to takumi machines and leads to, results in higher machining volume. There are some advantageous features of these machining centers which include: machine features very rigid spindle with 3 pairs of high precision angular contact bearings thus permitting extremely efficient torque/speed power characteristics; . A standard 8,000 rpm spindle with refrigerated oil cooling ensures thermal stability of the spindle for uniform performance throughout the day; . The machine is available with a choice of cnc systems from fanuc, mitsubishi, heidenhain, etc. For the die/mould industry, the takumi machines can be offered with the cimatron 3d cad/cam package from israel. Cimatron has developed an extremely powerful software for operation using a pc and works on windows operating system. For high quality engraving, the cimagraphi software is available for high quality engraving.
