Taiwan-made general-purpose lathe "SJ series" imported and sold by TAKAMATSU MACHINE TOOL CO.

Interest in the SJ series ofgeneral-purpose lathes manufactured by Taiwan's Yu-Chia Industrial Group and imported and sold by Takamatsu Machinery is slowly increasing. Takamatsu Machinery has been dealing with the product since 2008, when it formed a partnership with Tomoka Jitsugyo. The reason for the interest is that the machine is priced at 3.3 million yen (excluding consumption tax), which is less expensive than domestically produced machines, yet it has the necessary rigidity and functions. Takamatsu believes that small and medium-sized factories have a deep-seated demand for general-purpose machines that are convenient for small-scale processing and that they would like to have one of these machines. The company plans to create opportunities to see the machines at exhibitions and other events as needed. Photo taken on October 26, 2019, credit: Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun / Kyodo News Images
