Hasegawa Machine Works unveils new turret lathe C52 at private show

July 7, 2025

Private show draws 350 visitors to Shirakawa plant 

From June 10 to 12, Hasegawa Machine Works held a private show at its Shirakawa plant in Nishigō, Fukushima Prefecture. Approximately 350 guests attended the three-day event. The company exhibited 10 machines, including the newly developed C52 turret-type lathe and the PM320-5XT multitasking 5-axis machining center launched last year. 

The C52 is Hasegawa’s largest turret-type lathe to date, capable of machining bar stock up to 52 mm in diameter on both the front and rear spindles. Designed with a highly rigid structure, the machine demonstrated deep-cutting capabilities during live demonstrations. The turret can mount up to 12 different cutting tools—the most of any Hasegawa model. 

Also highlighted was the PM320-5XT, a 5-axis machining center enhanced with turning capabilities. The rotary table is equipped with a built-in direct-drive (DD) motor for turning applications, capable of reaching speeds of up to 2,000 rpm. 

Expanding focus beyond compact, precision machining 

President Toru Hasegawa explained the company’s evolving development strategy: “Until now, our concept was to produce precise parts with compact machines. But now, we want to expand our lineup to include multitasking machines and models with greater rigidity.”
