Machine tools since 1965

Mekay was established in 1965 and focused on manufacturing small diameter lathe machines, which is the only product that it has made since the beginning. The production of manual turret lathes continued for 40 years, and these machines were so popular in the market that they were called “tayyare” (aeroplane) by the customers, emphasising its speed and seriality.

In 2005, Mekay started the production of CNC Precision Lathes.

Mekay, which specialises in manufacturing machines for small-diameter serial workpieces, 
produces the latest technology, the most accurate, fastest and most powerful CNC lathes 
in its segment and designs new models and options according to the needs of the industry, without compromising on quality. Mekay is now the local market leader in Turkey and exports to 7 countries on 3 continents in the world.

Machine types

Machines with 2 axes

• Basic machines Mekamat-5B/6B
• Machines with turret Mekamat-5TB/6TB

Mekamat-5B/6B is a basic gang-type precision lathe. It is possible to mount cutting tools on the tool table side by side, and it extremely shortens tool-to-tool transition times

Mekamat-5TB/6TB has an additional turret and it is possible to use 10 more 
tools comparing Mekamat-5B/6B. It can be used as a lathe machine and also as a gang type precision lathe machine.

Machines with 3 axes

• Basic machines with c-axis Mekamat-5BC/6BC
• Machines with c-axis and turret Mekamat-5TC/6TC
  

Mekamat-5BC/6BC is a basic gang-type precision lathe (same machine as model B) equipped with a single live tooling block, rotatable axially or radially

Mekamat-5TC/6TC is basically a gang-type precision lathe machine 
equipped with a powered turret, which allows performing milling operations 
on a turning machine by its driven tools and C-axis control. It can also be used as a gang-type precision lathe or as a lathe machine with the C axis. With the manual guide-i function, it is very easy to program and operate complex workpieces and with the manual handle retrace function, it is very safe to operate 
the machine

Machines with 4 axes

• Machines with y and c-axis Mekamat-5YC/6YC
• Machines with y and c-axis and turret Mekamat-5YTC/6YTC

Mekamat-5YC/6YC is basically a gang-type precision lathe machine equipped with a Y-axis stock containing 4 radial and 4 axial driven tools, which allows performing milling operations on a turning machine by these driven tools and Y and C axis control

Mekamat-5YTC/6YTC has additionally a turret comparing Mekamat-5YC/6YC which allows it to use 8 driven tools and 10 static tools together.
