About Ecoca
Who Ecoca isEcoca Industrial Co., Ltd. is a machine tool builder based in Taichung, Taiwan. The company was established in 1980 and began by producing conventional high-speed lathes before moving into CNC turning. According to the company, it started developing and producing CNC lathes in 1988, and in June 2009 it added a machining center line covering vertical and double-column machines.
What they are known forEcoca's core product is the lathe. The line has grown from conventional and teach-in lathes into 2-axis CNC lathes, larger slant-bed turning centers, and CNC lathes with Y-axis capability. Current turning ranges include the MT, SL and SJ slant-bed turning centers and the EL flat-bed CNC lathes. The company also builds the VB and VL series vertical machining centers. For used-equipment buyers, Ecoca is most often encountered as a CNC lathe or turning center.
Model series buyers search forThe SJ series is the slant-bed CNC lathe family, with models such as the SJ-10iM, SJ-20, SJ-20MC and SJ-25HT. The MT series covers a broad range of turning centers, including the MT-108, MT-208, MT-310, MT-412 and MT-415 variants, some with milling or sub-spindle configurations. The SL series includes the SL-8 and SL-10. Flat-bed CNC lathes appear in the EL series, such as the EL-4610 and EL-4615. Vertical machining centers include the VB-600 through VB-2000 range and the VL-600, VL-800 and VL-1000.
What to check on a used EcocaStart with the control: Ecoca lathes have been supplied with Fanuc CNC controls, and a machine's control model and version affect both usability and the cost of any retrofit. Check spindle condition and bearing noise, since these lathes run spindles up to around 4,000 rpm. On slant-bed models, inspect the turret for repeatability and index accuracy, and look at the curvic coupling and tool stations. Check the bed, saddle and cross-slide ways or linear guides for wear and scoring, and confirm the lubrication system is working. Ballscrews, thrust bearings and the tailstock quill are other wear points. Ask for maintenance records and any evidence of spindle or turret repair.
Service and partsEcoca has an established international distributor network, and the company states it provides service and technical support. Because these are Fanuc-controlled machines, many electrical and drive components are widely supported independently of the original builder. Mechanical parts specific to Ecoca, such as turret components or sheet-metal, may take longer to source, so confirm what documentation, spare parts and local service are included with any used machine before you buy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where is Ecoca based and when were they founded?
Ecoca Industrial Co., Ltd. is based in Taichung, Taiwan. The company was established in 1980 and began producing conventional high-speed lathes before adding CNC lathes in 1988 and machining centers in 2009.
What CNC control do Ecoca lathes use?
Ecoca CNC lathes have been supplied with Fanuc controls; for example, an SJ-25HT has been documented with a Fanuc Series 18-T control. Because Fanuc is widely supported, parts and service for the control are generally easier to find than builder-specific mechanical parts.
What should I inspect on a used Ecoca CNC lathe?
Check the spindle for noise and runout, the turret for index repeatability and coupling wear, and the ways or linear guides for scoring. Also inspect ballscrews, thrust bearings, the tailstock quill and the lubrication system, and ask for maintenance records.
Are parts and service still available for Ecoca machines?
Ecoca states that it provides service and technical support, and the company has an international distributor network. Fanuc control components are supported independently, but Ecoca-specific mechanical parts may take longer to source, so confirm availability before purchase.
What is the difference between the Ecoca SJ and MT series?
Both are CNC turning lines. The SJ series is a slant-bed family that includes models such as the SJ-20 and SJ-25HT, while the MT series covers a wider range of turning centers, including models with milling or sub-spindle configurations.
