Kitamura’s Mycenter-HX800i Horizontal Machining Center delivers the precision, accuracy and repeatability required to produce close tolerance parts from the toughest materials. Superior rigidity in its solid box way construction combined with patented twin ballscrew and dual feedback technology make the Mycenter-HX800i the ideal machine for high precision, hard milling of larger parts. Perfectly suited for the aerospace, automotive, power generation and heavy machinery industries, net weight is an impressive 45,100 lb.
Mycenter-HX800i Features
The Mycenter-HX800i comes standard with a 35hp, 12,000rpm 2-step geared spindle that delivers 280.3ft/lb of max. torque with high end fine finish capability. An optional 8,000rpm high torque spindle is an available option with output max. torque of 699.3ft/lb. The combination of Kitamura’s unique spindle gear system with a Dual Contact Spindle design offers the benefits of greater machining rigidity, improved surface finish, higher cutting accuracy and extended cutting tool life.
The Mycenter-HX800i comes standard with a full 4th axis rotary table equipped with an ultra-high precision rotary scale. A quick indexing time of 0.45sec. for 90°. (33.3rpm) rapid feed provides the competitive edge necessary to machine complex, multi-sided parts, greatly reducing set-up time. In addition, The Mycenter-HX800i utilizes an efficient positive 180-degree rotating pallet change system that allows for the loading of parts while machining – dramatically improving cutting time while allowing for in-process verification of component quality. An expansive work envelope (work size of Ø39.4" by 43.3") , clamping power of 17,243 lb and a table load capacity of 2,640 lb allow for the machining of larger work pieces and complex fixturing.
The Mycenter-HX800i comes standard with a 50-tool fixed port ATC with an amazing tool change time of 3 seconds. Up to 300 tools can be added in the field for added flexibility in changing from one job to the next. A Double Decker Conveyor and Filtration System combined with 220psi Coolant thru the spindle offer a high amount of efficiency in minimizing thermal distortion while improving accuracy and prolonging tool life in hard milling applications.
Horizontal machining requires a user friendly and proven control when challenged with high precision machining of tougher materials and alloys. Kitamura combines both in our Kitamura-Fanuc 16iMB control. With standard 1280 meters memory, 128MB data server, HPCC by RISC Control, NURBS Interpolation, 16 million pulse encoder system and Ethernet connection this control is powerful enough to ensure optimum accuracy in a variety of cutting conditions requiring both 4th and 5th axis capabilities.
