What the Toshiba BTD 200QH is

The Toshiba BTD 200QH is a CNC horizontal boring mill — a machine for boring, milling and drilling large, heavy workpieces — a quill or spindle feeding out on the W axis over a rotary table that carries tons. The manufacturer publishes a spindle diameter of 7.8 in (200 mm) QUILL diameter. This one is specified with a W axis: the quill or spindle feeds out independently of the column.

What it is built to do

From the figures the manufacturer publishes, a Toshiba BTD 200QH suits:

  • boring 15.7 in (400 mm) deep on the quill without moving the column
  • workpieces up to the published 8,800 lb (4,000 kg), which on a machine this size is usually the binding constraint rather than the travels
  • bars and heads sized to a 7.8 in (200 mm) QUILL diameter spindle

A note on the name. Toshiba Machine Co. renamed itself Shibaura Machine Co. on 1 April 2020, so the manufacturer’s own specification for this machine is published under Shibaura Machine even though the machine, the nameplate and the way everyone in the trade refers to it all still say Toshiba.

Manufacturer specification. Every figure below was read from the manufacturer’s own published specification for this machine and checked back against that document word for word.

These are the manufacturer’s figures for this model as currently published. A machine built years ago may differ in control generation and in options, which is exactly why the questions below matter when you sell one.

What fits a Toshiba BTD 200QH

Each of these follows from a published specification above, which is named beside it.

Boring bars and tooling

The spindle figure opposite sets the boring-bar class this machine works with, and it is the number a buyer of a boring mill asks for first. Bars, facing heads and angle heads are separate assets and are counted separately.

What years the Toshiba BTD 200QH was built

Across the units we have tracked, build years run from 2012 to 2015. Observed across 25 marketplaces, not a manufacturer build record. The manufacturer specifies TOSNUC 999, so a unit on an older control is an early one or a retrofit.

2012 to 2015model years listed

We track listings across 25 used-machinery marketplaces, and every competitor in this market is one of them, so this is a view none of them can produce for themselves. Right now there are 5 units of this exact designation on the market, drawn from 1 source, spanning model years 2012 to 2015. A seller is competing with those units, which is why condition, tooling and control generation decide the number.

We count only listings whose model is spelled as this machine’s own designation. Near spellings that may be a different variant are excluded rather than counted, so this is a floor on what is out there, not a total.

What to check on a Toshiba BTD 200QH

The same list whichever side of the deal you are on.

  • Control generation. The manufacturer specifies TOSNUC 999 for this model. The control is often the single biggest swing on two otherwise identical machines, because it decides which buyers can use it at all.
  • Spindle hours and condition. Most controls show run hours on a maintenance or diagnostics screen. It is the first number anyone asks for, so find it before the conversation rather than during it.
  • Tooling and accessories. Holders, chucks, steady rests, probing and automation attachments travel with the machine, and they are worth real money separately from it.
  • Quill and spindle wear. On a boring mill this is the machine — measure runout at full quill extension, not retracted.
  • Table rotation and indexing accuracy, and whether the table load rating has been respected.
  • Foundation and how it comes out. A machine of this class is a rigging job, and access is part of the number.
  • Power and rigging access. How the machine comes out of the building is a real cost, and it is one MTE absorbs, so an accessible machine is worth more to us.
