Rock-Solid Castings
By combining leading edge technology with hands-on attention to detail, Kitamura has elevated its machining centers to new levels of quality and durability, while always focusing on the need for precise, dependable results.
- Top Quality Meehanite construction
- Table traverse design and fully supported table structures reduce work piece and spindle interference and deliver peak, long term accuracy
- Kitamura hand scrapes all mounted surfaces requiring assembly in order to provide the full surface contact and proper alignment that exceeds the fit and finish of mounting surfaces when machined.
Solid Box Way Design
Tough cuts demand super rigidity and Kitamura’s solid box guideways handle the toughest cutting conditions with ease by delivering superior abrasion resistance and vibration absorption.
- Lightning-fast feed rates of 1,969ipm – The fastest on Solid Box Ways
- Mirror-finish surface for unparalleled accuracy (less than 0.003mm surface roughness)
(less than 0.003mm surface roughness)
- Allows for heavier cutting ability, better surface finish, and longer tool life
Premium Grade Components – Ultra High Precision
The goad for precision has driven Kitamura for over 75 years. Our extremely precise machining centers let customers supply high value-added services to their clients, entering new markets, expanding business and producing extreme tolerance work.
- Positioning accuracies of ±0.000078”/Full stroke are maintained through a variety of standard features
- Fine-pitch ballscrews and high-resolution servomotors delivery unparalleled accuracyy
- Ballscrew cooling systems and efficiency monitors eliminate thermal growth and promote axis rigidity
High-Performance Geared Spindles
Speed, accuracy, strength and versatility - From low-end, heavy torque roughing, to high-speed, fine finishing, Kitamura combines best-in-class performance with the flexibility of two machines in one.
- Kitamura offers a variety of spindle configurations from #30, #40, #50 taper, 3,500 to 30,000rpm, offering flexibility for all of your machining requirements
- Multi-step gear driven spindles deliver unmatched power and energy efficiently for increased productivity and savings
- Rigid dual-contact design stands up to the toughest cutting conditions, offering simultaneous taper & flange contract for higher rigidity, improved surface finish and extended cutting tool life
- High-speed tapping functions and spindle heat displacement system maintain accuracies on the longest runs
Advanced Tool Handling
Kitamura’s patented high speed fixed pot ATC system ensures accurate and effective tool changes and tool identification. Multi-tasking minimizes the “out-of-cut” time, returning the old tool and placing the next tool in the ready position while the tool in the spindle is still cutting the work piece.
- Generous tool capacity – stores up to 300 tools with the option of in-field installation
- Servo driven ATC design allows for higher speeds, have less vibration and are virtually maintenance free
- Tools are always returned to the same tool pot. The tool magazine keeps the next tool in a standby port for fast, efficient tool changes
- Large diameter tools and spindle adapters (angular heads, spindle speed changers and large U-axis heads for 50 taper machines) can be used without fear of interference or tool crashes
High Production Capabilities
Kitamura’s factory installed pallet change systems provide for fully automatic operation, consistent cycle time and ±0.001” positioning accuracy.
- Save on set-up time, manpower and tooling costs
- Multi pallet systems unique design features allow for systems to be installed on existing machines in the field, allowing for standard machine usage and eliminating extended delivery times that can hamper production schedules
- Easily expandable flexible manufacturing systems can be tailored to each individual customer’s manufacturing requirements
- Standard 2-station rotating system on HMC’s, rotary or shuttle style designs available on VMC’s
Chip Management
Kitamura provides a combination of internal and external conveyor and filtration systems to quickly eliminate chips, increase accuracy and prolong tool life. Standard wash and shower coolant aid in keeping the work envelope safe and free of chips.
- Double decker style conveyor and filtration system removes both large and small chips
- Way covers on all axes in combination with way wipers keep chips from entering the slideways
- High –efficiency pumps and components assure reliable coolant delivery
High Performance CNC
The Kitamura-Fanuc control with standard AI Nano High Precision Contour Control (HPCC) is not only ideal for general machining, but also provides the control capability to easily handle complex contouring and mold applications.
- CNC panels swing out for easy access and fold flat to save space
- Kitamura’s Maintenance Support System option offers the operator a vehicle for general machine maintenance, troubleshooting alarms, and specifying repair parts – all shown on the NC screen
- Kitamura’s Manual Guide Function features popular Conversational Programming. Perfect for shops that run small to medium lot size parts
- Feature packed standard control comes with the following features:
- AI Nano High Precision Contour Control
- RISC-64 Bit Processor with NURBS Interpolation
- Data Server Upgrade (128MB)
- 1280 Meters Memory
- Ethernet Connection
- 200 Registered Programs
- 99 Tool Offsets
- Tool Life Management
- Helical Interpolation
- Tool Offset Memory C
