This Nakamura-Tome Super NTY3 is a used lathe — sometimes referred to as a turning centre — dating from 2006 and currently located in Italy. Lathes of this type are precision machine tools used to shape metal workpieces by rotating them against cutting tools, and are fundamental to component manufacturing across the automotive, aerospace, and general engineering industries. Nakamura-Tome is a well-regarded Japanese machine tool builder with a long-standing reputation for multi-axis turning and turn-mill centres serving high-precision production environments.
This machine is equipped with three twelve-position turrets, each carrying a Y-axis with a travel of ±31 mm, giving the machine significant capacity for complex, multi-operation work in a single setup. The bar capacity is 42 mm, meaning bar stock up to that diameter can be fed directly through the spindle. The control system is a Fanuc 31iTA, a capable CNC platform commonly found on multi-turret turning centres and well supported in terms of programming and maintenance.
The machine is described as well tooled, indicating that a meaningful complement of tooling is included with the sale. It is also fitted with an LNS Sprint S3 bar feeder with a rear magazine, which was new in 2007; this automated bar-feeding system allows continuous, largely unattended operation and is a practical addition to the package. The Fanuc 31iTA control, the three Y-axis turrets, and the bar feeder together make this a capable multi-tasking lathe suited to medium-complexity turned and milled parts in production quantities.
