Nakamura-Tome SC-100x2: Twin-turret multitasking machine

The Nakamura-Tome SC-100x2 twin-turret multitasking machine uses two tools on either side of the upper turret for superimposed machining, letting shops take on complex contracts and more jobs while completing them in less time at reduced costs.

Operators can use the upper and lower turret simultaneously, turning the SC-100x2 into a twin spindle/twin turret machine to solve complex machining problems.

The machine’s design contributes to faster cycle times compared to other machining strategies while maintaining high precision and accuracy. The SC-100x2 automatically unloads the workpiece once complete, minimizing manual intervention and downtime. When the machine completes a cycle, the parts catcher grips the part and places it on a conveyor.

Nakamura-Tome’s user-friendly software programs superimposed and multi-turret jobs as easily as single-turret operations. The software package also includes Nakamura’s NT-Nurse system, NT-Smart Sign, NT-Navigator, oscillation turning, and thermal compensation artificial intelligence.
