Takisawa/Sharp TSL 1000 Gap Bed Engine Lathe

Available at Auction
The Takisawa TSL-1000 gap-bed engine lathe offers 16 in swing over bed, 20 in swing in the 4 in gap and 40 in between centers, letting maintenance crews turn hydraulic rods and airline rollers without chasing sub-contractors. A 1.5 in spindle bore and D1-6 nose grip bar stock for steady production, while a 25 hp motor drives twelve speeds to 1 800 RPM so cast-iron flywheels skim true in a single pass. Flood coolant and a thread-chasing dial shorten threading cycles, and the 5C lever closer swaps from collets to an 8.5 in scroll chuck in two minutes. A 3 in steady rest, 4-way toolpost and telescopic screw guard round out a 3 500 lb frame that fits an 84 x 40 in footprint.

Compared with Takisawa’s lighter TSL-800—14 in swing, 30 in centers, 10 hp motor and 1.38 in bore—the TSL-1000 stretches capacity by 2 in in swing, 10 in in length and more than doubles motor power, yet both share the same carriage layout and metric-inch gearbox so programs and tooling interchange seamlessly.
