Rathburn Tool & Manufacturing continued it equipment and scale expansion with the acquisition of a Takisawa TM 4000Y2 twin spindle twin turret lathe, the company’s second addition in just over a month.

The twin spindle, twin turret and multi-tasking chucker gives Rathburn unprecedented capabilities—it can execute turning and milling processes continuously, cuts machine time in less than half, and increases precision across multiple operations.
