Horizontal Machining Center for Exotic Material, Multi-Axis Machining



Kitamura Machinery has introduced its Mycenter-HX630G horizontal machining center (HMC), built for high precision, high quality and high value machining of close tolerance parts from the toughest of materials. "A larger work envelope, cutting/table load capacities mean that this G-Series introduction offers the user more productivity when compared with previous models along with ease of use for the operator," said a company spokesperson.

Manufactured in Japan with hand scraping production techniques, the Mycenter-HX630G has a range of features such as solid box way construction with 2,362 IPM rapid feedrates on solid box ways, twin ballscrews and motors in the X, Y and Z axes and linear scale feedback on all axes for optimum stability and high accuracies of ±0.000079"/full stroke, ±0.000039" repeatability.

The Mycenter-HX630G is equipped standard with a #50 54 HP, 12,000 RPM dual contact, 4-step gear driven spindle that delivers 432.2 ft-lbs. of maximum torque with exceptional high end power. An optional 8,000 RPM high torque spindle is available with 904.2 ft-lbs. of maximum torque. "The energy efficient geared spindle design demonstrates savings of between 40% and 50% in Kilowatt hours for increased productivity and savings," said the spokesperson. Kitamura now offers a HSK-A100 spindle design as an available option.

Kitamura's Mycenter-HX630G HMC offers a maximum workpiece size of O42.5" x 51.2" (Dia. x H) within a small footprint. High speed rapid feedrates of 2,362 IPM on solid box ways boost overall work throughput. A standard 2-station APC is field expandable and is coupled with full 360° 4th axis with high resolution rotary scale for faster, accurate production per pallet load.

A 50 tool "fixed pot" automatic tool changer is standard with upgrade capabilities of up to 200 tools in the field. A matrix style tool changer is available with up to 308 total tools as an option. The Arumatik-Mi controller allows for axis drive expandability in the field and high speed and high precision SSS control for advanced control processing capabilities.
