USED BROTHER TC-R2B CNC Vertical Drilling & Tapping Machine
The BROTHER TC-R2B is a high-speed CNC vertical drilling and tapping center designed for precision machining and efficient production. Manufactured in 2012 in Japan, this machine features a BROTHER CNC-B00 control, a 10,000 RPM spindle, a 14-position automatic tool changer, and a 180-degree rotary pallet changer for increased productivity and reduced downtime.
The twin-pallet configuration allows operators to load and unload workpieces on one pallet while machining continues on the other, minimizing non-cutting time and improving production efficiency. With rapid traverse rates of up to 50 m/min (1,969 IPM) and fast pallet indexing, the TC-R2B is ideal for high-volume drilling, tapping, and light milling applications.
