The EX-2000 Turning Center is built on an advanced hybrid guideway design that strategically combines the strengths of box ways and roller linear guides for maximum machining performance. The X-axis is engineered with heavy-duty box ways, providing excellent vibration damping and superior dynamic rigidity—ensuring stability during demanding cutting operations and extending tool life. Complementing this, the Y-axis, Z-axis, and B-axis utilize high-precision roller linear guides. These guides deliver exceptional positioning accuracy, high rigidity, and the speed required for complex machining applications. By integrating both guideway technologies, the EX-2000 achieves the perfect balance of strength, precision, and efficiency, enabling manufacturers to maintain surface finish quality while optimizing cycle times and throughput.
The EX-2000 Turning Center is designed with both left and right spindles equipped with powerful built-in motors, delivering high precision machining with exceptionally low vibration and minimal noise. This advanced spindle technology enhances cutting stability and ensures superior surface finishes, allowing manufacturers to achieve better part quality with every cycle. For the left spindle, users also have the option of a reliable and cost-effective belt-drive spindle configuration. This flexible design gives shops the freedom to choose between maximum performance or economical operation, making the EX-2000 an ideal solution for a wide range of production needs.
The EX-2000 Turning Center is equipped with Taiwan Takisawa’s high-rigidity, high-precision T12 turning-milling turret, engineered to maximize machining flexibility and accuracy. Built with a large-diameter curved tooth bevel gear, the turret ensures exceptional torque transmission, stable indexing, and long-term durability under heavy cutting conditions. Its robust construction allows for seamless integration of multiple operations—including milling, drilling, and tapping—in addition to conventional turning. By consolidating these processes into a single setup, the T12 turret greatly enhances machining efficiency, reduces cycle times, and minimizes part handling. This high-performance turret not only improves processing accuracy but also supports true multi-tasking capability, enabling manufacturers to achieve greater engineering concentration and productivity across a wide variety of complex components.
The EX-2000T, EX-2000MT, and EX-2000YT models are equipped with a high-performance servo-driven tailstock, designed to provide both strength and operational efficiency during machining. Powered by a precision servo motor, the tailstock offers smooth, accurate positioning with the advantages of simplified operation and rapid movement—reaching traverse speeds of up to 36 meters per minute. This allows operators to quickly adapt to changing setups and reduce non-cutting time, further enhancing overall productivity. For applications involving heavy or oversized workpieces, the system can be configured with a rotary tailstock spindle equipped with a fixed center. This option delivers maximum stability and support under heavy load conditions, ensuring machining accuracy, maintaining part concentricity, and extending tool life. By combining speed, flexibility, and strength, the EX-2000 tailstock system is engineered to meet the demands of both high-precision and heavy-duty turning operations.
The EX-2000 series can be tailored for even greater productivity by incorporating a gantry loading arm for efficient loading and unloading, along with an automated feeding system for raw materials and finished components. These automation options significantly reduce manual intervention and idle time, creating a smoother production flow. As a result, manufacturers can achieve faster cycle times, greater throughput, and more consistent quality across higher-volume operations.
