Frequently Asked Questions: Tsugami BE208

How much does the Tsugami BE208 cost?

Our best estimate for the Tsugami BE208 is $150,000 - $260,000. 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-be208#price; the request is passed to Tsugami or an authorised dealer.

What does 8-axis simultaneous mean on the BE208?

The listed table describes the control as 8-axis simultaneous, so the front and back tool groups can cut at the same time instead of one waiting for the other. On parts with work at both ends, that overlap is where cycle time is saved. Confirm the axis assignment with the maker for the job being quoted.

How are the BE208's tools arranged?

The table lists up to 32 tool positions. The gang carries 4 turning tools and up to 12 driven tools, and there are driven tools at the back as well. Driven tools run to 6,000 RPM. Check the part's largest milling or drilling feature against that speed and the tool count.

How does the BE208 compare with the B0205?

Both take 20 mm bar. The B0205 has 21 tool positions, live tools at 8,000 rpm and a 2.2/3.7 kW (2.9/5 hp) main motor. The BE208 is listed with up to 32 positions, driven tools at 6,000 RPM and a main spindle of 3.7 kW continuous and 5.5 kW peak, with 8-axis simultaneous control.

How big is the BE208?

The listed dimensions are approx. 2,100 x 1,250 x 1,780 mm and the weight approx. 2,200 kg (4,850 lbs). Both are approximate and unchecked against Tsugami, so get an installation drawing and allow room for the bar feeder at the headstock end.
