Taikan T-500B – The "3C Machining Star" Among CNC Drilling and Tapping Machining Centers

Table of Content [Hide]

    Friends in the machining industry know that nearly all metal frames of smartphones are processed using CNC drilling and milling centers. So, as a machining professional, how do you choose the right CNC drilling and tapping machine?

    Many might first look at specifications and parameters, then consider price and discounts. While specs provide a basic understanding of a machine's performance, the hidden factors — long-term stability and reliability — can't be fully captured in a simple parameter sheet.

    This is where brand reputation, sales volume, technical expertise, after-sales service, and overall strength come into play. Selecting the right machine requires a comprehensive evaluation of multiple factors to make the most suitable choice.

    02. Leading Sales, Market-Proven

    As of 2025, Taikan has sold over 110,000 drilling and milling centers worldwide, demonstrating the quality and reliability of its products in the global market.

    While sales alone don't tell the whole story, they reflect widespread customer recognition — particularly from repeat clients — and validate the machine's quality and cost-effectiveness. High sales also ensure better availability of spare parts and more responsive after-sales support.

    A machine tool is not a disposable product but a long-term productivity tool. Choosing a high-volume model means choosing peace of mind.
