Our best estimate for the Tsugami B038T is $350,000 - $500,000. This is an estimate for a swiss-type lathes in this class, not a quote from Tsugami; configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/tsugami-b038t#price; the request is passed to Tsugami or an authorised dealer.
Both take 38 mm (1.5 in) bar on a 7.5 / 11 kW main spindle. The B038T adds a turret, for 9 axes and up to 45 tool stations, and machines 250 mm (9.84 in) per chucking, but cannot run as a chucker. The B0386 has 6 axes, 32/42 stations, 320 mm (12.6 in) of stroke, a chucker mode and weighs 4,850 kg against 6,200 kg.
No. Tsugami America lists a guide bushing but no chucker mode for the B038T. Every part is machined through the bushing, which supports long work well but leaves a longer remnant per bar and needs bar stock that suits the bushing.
8 rotary tools on the turret and 2 on the gang slide, running at 200 - 8,000 rpm. The machine holds up to 45 tool stations in total, so most positions carry stationary turning and boring tools.
The main spindle runs at 200 - 5,000 rpm on a 7.5 / 11 kW (10.1 / 14.8 hp) motor, the sub spindle at 200 - 7,000 rpm and the live tools at 200 - 8,000 rpm. The main spindle is built for large bar and heavy cuts rather than high surface speed on small diameters.
