The price estimate for the Feeler TC-20α is uncertain: we have no price for it that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so we give no figure. Configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/feeler-tc-20-alpha#price; the request is passed to Feeler or an authorised dealer.
The spec column is headed TC-20α Turret/Arm, and the tool row reads 14/20 with Z travel 300/400 mm. Feeler's text describes an arm-type ATC that holds 20 tools. The paired values appear to be turret first and arm second, but the page does not say so outright.
Feeler states a tool-change time of just 1.7 seconds for the arm-type ATC that holds 20 tools, with bidirectional random tool selection. No figure is given for the turret version.
12,000 rpm as standard, with optional 15,000 and 20,000 rpm configurations. Feeler says the spindle reaches 12,000 rpm in just one second and 20,000 rpm in only 1.5 seconds. The taper is 7/24 No.30.
X travel is 510 mm (20.1 in) and Y travel 400 mm (15.7 in), over a 600 x 400 mm (23.6 x 15.7 in) table rated for 250 kg (551 lb). Z travel is listed as 300/400 mm (11.8/15.7 in).
