TMTS 2014 Highlights: Tongtai

Tongtai is a group of companies. The main advantage of the group is that 20% of the engineers are engaged in R&D. They work mainly for the automotive sector. Currently the Japanese suffer a very strong shot from Taiwanese manufacturers because they are becoming more competitive in terms of quality/price ratio. Automation and intelligence of machines are constantly being developed and become more and more important.

For completing the product line and enhancing their professional status, Tongtai made a strategic alliance with Honor Seiki, APEC, and Quicktech. With the integration of those companies, Tongtai’s products expanded to large size vertical lathes, large size cross-track type high speed five-axis machining centers and small size high speed precision CNC lathes.

Including the latest machines, horizontal boring and milling machines and gantry type machining center, Tongtai products in the metal cutting domain make now a complete portfolio. Furthermore, within the group, each member could share the resources internally to enhance the external competence of the Tongtai group.
