Our best estimate for the Tsugami SS20MH-III-5AX is $450,000 - $650,000. 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-ss20mh-iii-5ax#price; the request is passed to Tsugami or an authorised dealer.
High tool speed for small cutters. End mills and drills of small diameter need high rpm to reach their cutting speed, so the tool spindle allows fine milled and drilled detail that would run slowly on driven tools limited to lower speeds. Back-end tools on the sub side are a separate group, listed at 10,000 rpm.
Both are 20 mm (0.79 in) five-axis Swiss-types. The SS20MH-III-5AX has eight axes to seven, a FANUC 31i-B5 Plus rather than a 31i-B5, a 3.7 / 5.5 kW (5/7.4 hp) main spindle against 2.2 / 3.7 kW (3/5 hp) on the SS207-II-5AX, and a 25,000 rpm tool spindle. It weighs 5,300 kg (11,660 lb) against 3,745 kg (8,267 lb) for the SS207-II-5AX, and machines 170 mm (6.69 in) per chucking against that model's 210 mm.
Tsugami America lists a maximum machining length of 170 mm (6.69 in). Guide-bushing and chucker modes are both available, so short parts can be run without the bushing and its remnant.
Weight and space. The machine weighs 5,300 kg (11,660 lb) and measures 2,500 × 1,905 × 1,920 mm, larger and heavier than the 3,400 kg (7,495 lb) SS20. Confirm floor loading, rigging access and room for the bar feeder before delivery.
