Takisawa TC30 comments/advice please

Hi guys,

I am looking at a Takisawa CNC lathe TC30. Its a 1998 lathe and still running in production.

I am not familiar with Takisawa and therfore dont really know where they fall as far as quality and life span. Could some of you please comment?

Also, how hard are spare parts to locate? Are they easily serviced and repaired by general CNC specialists ?

It is running FANUC 21-T

Thanks for any comments, greatly appreciate.

I had been looking at early 80's Okuma LC20's. This looks so more modern.

Regards, Iain.
