CNC Multi-Tasking Lathes
Used Nakamura-Tome NTY3-150: Sell or Buy at Auction
Nakamura-Tome is a Japanese machine tool builder specializing in multi-tasking CNC turning centers that combine turning, milling, and drilling in a single setup. Known for the WT (Work Twin) and NTRX series of multi-function lathes, Nakamura-Tome machines are a standard in precision machining shops that need done-in-one capability for complex parts.
The Nakamura-Tome NTY3-150 is a high-productivity multitasking CNC turning center with twin spindles and three turrets, engineered so several tools can cut at the same time to complete complex parts in a single machine. That three-turret architecture sets it apart from a conventional lathe: it is built to slash cycle times on high-volume, close-tolerance work such as automotive, medical, and hydraulic components. Buyers for a used NTY3-150 are production shops chasing throughput and done-in-one part completion, a specialized pool that values Nakamura-Tome's rigidity and multitasking reputation. KD Auctions markets each one to its 500,000+ industry contacts, reaching the production manufacturers who specifically seek triple-turret turning capacity.

What makes the Nakamura-Tome NTY3-150 different from a standard CNC lathe?
The NTY3-150 pairs twin spindles with three turrets, so multiple tools can machine a part at the same time, cutting cycle time dramatically versus a single-turret lathe. That productivity draws high-volume production shops rather than general job shops, which is why KD Auctions markets it to its full national network to reach the specific buyers who need that capacity.
What is a used Nakamura-Tome NTY3-150 worth at auction?
Value depends on age, spindle hours, control generation, and the tooling, bar feed, and automation included, more than the model name. KD Auctions provides a free AMEA-accredited, USPAP-compliant appraisal covering orderly liquidation value (OLV) and forced liquidation value (FLV), so you have a realistic figure before selling. Commission is tailored to the engagement and quoted upfront, and most sellers pay nothing out of pocket.
