The Kitamura Mycenter-HX400iF, with simultaneous full 4th axis machining capabilities and solid box way construction is equipped standard with high speed rapids of 1,969ipm on the X, Y and Z axes, driven by patented twin ballscrew and dual feedback technology. With a maximum work piece size of Ø25.6" x 37.8" within an expansive work envelope and a table load capacity of 880 lb, the Mycenter-HX400iF offers the size, rigidity, construction and accuracy necessary for both multi-part tombstone fixturing and complex multi-angle medium to large part machining.
“With the Mycenter-HX400iF, every component surface is finished by handscraping,” says Dr. Akihiro Kitamura, PhD, the company’s President. “This attention to detail and quality is Kitamura’s assurance of maximum resale value and long machine tool life, providing a competitive advantage to the buyer”
Mycenter-HX400iF Features
Kitamura’s Mycenter-HX400iF Horizontal Machining Center offers up both high cutting torque and 13,000rpm spindle speeds. Standard is a 25 HP A/C spindle motor with a dual contact, 2-speed geared head. The energy efficient geared head enables the Mycenter-HX400iF to reach full power at 652rpm, with maximum torque output of 270Nm (199ft/lb.). A 20,000rpm gear driven spindle system is an available option for high velocity metal removal.
The Mycenter-HX400iF comes standard with a 2-station, 180° rotating pallet changer system that provides optimum operator convenience and can be upgraded to a total of 21 pallets in the field as customer needs change. Optional Flexible Manufacturing Systems are also available tailored to each individual customer’s manufacturing requirements. A 50 Tool ATC is standard with a 1 second tool change time. Up to 200 tools can be added in field for added flexibility without long lead times.
A full 4th axis rotary table is a standard feature on all Kitamura Horizontal Machining Centers, allowing the customer to machine complex, multi-sided parts without separate operations or special equipment. The table is capable of indexing at 0.36seconds for 90 degrees (15,000 deg/min) rapid feed, enabling positioning at any angle very quickly and comes standard with an ultra high precision rotary scale for optimum accuracy (resolution 0.0001°.).
