DAS Launches the New TA-8-DIY CNC Turn-Mill Center for High-Efficiency Multi-Process Machining

A New Generation Solution for One-Setup Complete Machining

DAS (Guoqiang Daosheng) is proud to introduce the TA-8-DIY CNC Turn-Mill Center, a newly developed multi-tasking machine designed to meet the growing demand for efficient, flexible, and automated production.

Featuring a powerful configuration of dual spindles, dual turrets, and dual Y-axis functionality, the TA-8-DIY enables complete machining of complex parts in a single setup. Turning, milling, drilling, tapping, and secondary-side machining can all be completed without manual repositioning, significantly improving productivity while reducing setup errors.

For manufacturers facing rising labor costs and increasing production complexity, the TA-8-DIY offers an ideal solution for high-mix, high-volume machining environments.

Complete Machining in One Setup

The biggest advantage of the TA-8-DIY is its ability to perform multiple operations within a single machining cycle.

After the main spindle completes the first side of the workpiece, the sub-spindle automatically receives and transfers the part, allowing continuous machining on the opposite side without interruption.

This process eliminates:

· Secondary clamping

· Manual part flipping

· Alignment errors

· Unnecessary machine downtime

As a result, manufacturers can achieve more consistent quality and significantly higher production efficiency.

Dual 8-Inch Spindle Design for Greater Flexibility

The machine comes equipped with two high-rigidity 8-inch spindles.

Key Specifications:

· Maximum spindle distance: 780 mm

· Maximum bar capacity: Ø52 mm

· Suitable for both long and short shaft parts

· Compatible with sleeves, bushings, connectors, and complex precision components

The wide machining range makes the TA-8-DIY suitable for a variety of production requirements.

Dual Turrets with Dual Y-Axis Capability

To maximize machining flexibility, the TA-8-DIY is equipped with dual live-tool turrets and standard dual Y-axis functionality.

The machine supports:

· Side milling

· Slot milling

· Polygon machining

· Eccentric machining

· Radial drilling

· Tapping operations

By integrating turning and milling into a single platform, manufacturers can reduce process transfers and simplify production workflows.

Designed for Continuous Production

Efficiency is a critical factor in modern manufacturing.

Thanks to automatic part transfer between spindles and uninterrupted machining operations, the TA-8-DIY can increase overall production efficiency by more than 30% compared with traditional machining methods.

This makes the machine particularly suitable for:

· Batch production

· Automated machining cells

· Lights-out manufacturing

· Contract machining workshops

Standard Integrated Auxiliary Systems

To ensure stable performance during long production cycles, the TA-8-DIY comes standard with:

· Precision filtration system

· High-pressure coolant system

· Automatic chip conveyor

These integrated systems help maintain cutting performance, improve chip evacuation, reduce maintenance requirements, and extend both tool life and machine lifespan.

User-Friendly Operation

The TA-8-DIY features a 10-inch intelligent control panel with an intuitive operating interface.

Benefits include:

· Easy programming

· Fast parameter adjustment

· Simplified setup procedures

· Convenient batch production management

The machine is designed to reduce operator training time while supporting long-term production efficiency.

Ideal Applications

Shaft Components

Suitable for machining:

· Motor shafts

· Lead screw shafts

· Transmission shafts

· Gear shafts

· Hydraulic piston rods

Parts requiring machining on both ends can be completed in one cycle without re-clamping.

Sleeves, Bushings and Connectors

The machine efficiently handles:

· Internal and external turning

· Facing

· Threading

· Grooving

· Sealing groove machining

Ideal for high-volume production environments.

Complex Multi-Process Parts

For components requiring:

· Turning on both ends

· Side milling

· Flat machining

· Square and hexagonal features

· Eccentric holes

· Radial drilling and tapping

The dual turret and dual Y-axis configuration provides excellent process integration.

Wide Material Compatibility

The TA-8-DIY is capable of machining a broad range of materials, including:

· Carbon steel

· Alloy steel

· Stainless steel

· Aluminum

· Copper

· Heat-treated steel

Whether processing soft metals or medium-duty cutting applications, the machine delivers stable and reliable performance.

Built for Modern Manufacturing

The TA-8-DIY is designed to support both:

· High-mix, low-volume production

· High-volume mass production

It is particularly well-suited for manufacturers handling complex parts, multiple machining processes, and frequent setup changes.

For subcontract machining shops, OEM manufacturers, and custom parts producers, the TA-8-DIY offers a powerful combination of productivity, flexibility, and cost efficiency.
