Six New HMC Models Built for Precision, Productivity



Kent Industrial USA has introduced six purpose-built horizontal machining center (HMC) models engineered to tackle everything from high-speed aluminum production to heavy-duty steel machining with high precision and efficiency.

KTHA High Accuracy Series

For precision machining of cast iron and aluminum parts, the KTHA-4000P offers a 15,000 RPM spindle (upgradeable to 20,000 RPM), 6.5-ton hydraulic table lock, and precise B-axis indexing.

Specifications:

  • X/Y/Z-axis travel: 610 mm
  • X/Y/Z-axis rapid traverse: 60 m/min.

KSH Compact Series

Optimized for aluminum and small-stroke jobs, the KSH delivers a 15,000 RPM spindle in a compact, space-saving design with optional pallet changer and a 3-point support structure for improved stability.

Specifications:

  • X/Y/Z-axis travel: 508 mm
  • APC unit change time: 5.9s.

KTMH Production Series

Built for streamlined manufacturing, the KTMH offers a simple, low-maintenance structure with repositionable chip conveyor and optional spindle cooling-suited for spindles over 10,000 RPM.

Specifications:

  • X/Y/Z-axis travel: KTMH-400-510 mm; KTMH-500-710 mm/600 mm/600 mm
  • X/Y/Z-axis rapid traverse: KTMH-400-36 m/min; KTMH-500-48 m/min
  • Spindle speed: 8,000 RPM (opt. 10,000 RPM or 12,000 RPM)

KHA High Torque Series

Designed for power and efficiency, the KHA features a 12,000 RPM high-torque spindle and integrated pallet changer-reducing noncutting time by up to 30%.

Specifications:

  • X/Y/Z-axis travel: KHA-400II-610 mm/580 mm/580 mm; KHA-500II-710 mm/680 mm/680 mm
  • X/Y/Z-axis rapid traverse: 60 m. min.

KHB Heavy Duty Series

The KHB combines a 10,000 RPM spindle with 420 Nm torque, robust B-axis pallet brake, and FMS compatibility for heavy-duty machining of ferrous materials, Kent reported.

Specifications:

  • X/Y/Z-axis travel: KHB-500II-800 mm/710 mm/710 mm; KHB-630-1,050 mm/850 mm/970 mm; KHB-800II-1,400 mm/1,200 mm/1,300 mm
  • X/Y/Z-axis rapid traverse: KHB-500II-60 m/min; KHB-630 and KHB-800II-50 m/min
  • Spindle speed: 10,000 RPM (opt. 8,000 RPM).

KHG Box Way Series

Engineered for maximum rigidity, the KHG is equipped with hardened box ways, a two-speed gear head delivering up to 1,319 Nm torque, and 20 m/min rapid traverse.

Specifications:

  • X/Y/Z-axis travel: KHG-800II-1,120 mm/1,000 mm/1,250 mm; KHG-1250-2,000 mm/1,400 mm/1,250 mm
  • X/Y/Z-axis rapid traverse: KHG-800II-15 m/min; KHG-1250-20 m/min
  • Spindle speed: 6,000 RPM (opt. 8,000 RPM).
