PERFORMANCE

• Multi-Step, Gear Driven Spindles
• Delivers high-efficiency cutting performance with low energy consumption
• No influences from characteristics of the motor.
• Efficient oil chiller system minimizes thermal displacement and maximizes spindle life to achieve the performance needed in high accuracy machining.
• Less motor heat means tighter bearing pre-load. This equals a stiffer and more stable spindle for excellence in cutting performance.

Focus on Productivity – Kitamura’s Gear Driven Spindle Development     

• 1992 – Kitamura first introduces #40, 10,000min-1, 2-Step Gear Driven Spindle   
• 1997 – Kitamura first introduces #50, 10,000min-1, 2-Step Gear Driven Spindle
• 1998 – Kitamura first introduces #40, 15,000min-1, 2-Step Gear Driven Spindle
• 2002~ Current – Never before seen #40, 20,000min-1 and #50, 12,000min-1, 4-Step

                  Gear Driven SpindlesWORLD’S FASTEST!    

Efficiency-Enhancing, Workpiece Handling Systems

• Kitamura’s multi-pallet systems offer savings on set-up time, manpower and tooling costs. Unique design features allow for these systems to be installed on existing machines in the field, allowing for standard machine usage and eliminating extended delivery times
• Flexible Manufacturing Systems are tailored to each individual customer’s manufacturing requirements and come in a variety of types and sizes to fit any type of machining application. Easily expandable, these systems allow for the addition of systems, cells, machines and loading stations further promoting and unmanned machining development process for even the smaller sized job shops
• 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.
• Patented “Fixed-Pot” tool magazine systems are expandable in the field (up to 300T on our HMC models) increasing machining uptime and allow for growth as you cultivate your lights-out business

Accuracy – Hand Scraping

Kitamura offers scraping in order to provide a high precision finish which cannot be accomplished by a machine.

All critical machine contact surfaces are extensively and meticulously hand scraped by some of the world’s most experienced machine tool technicians.

Machine components such as the spindle mounting surface shown fit perfectly each and every time.

Scraping for Geometry, Fit and Performance – Consistent Accuracies

Hand scraping and hand fitting of components allow for true geometric tolerances and long machine tool life.

Consistent accuracies of ±0.002mm (±0.000079”) Full Stroke and ±0.001mm (±0.000039”) repeatability are able to be achieved as a result of timehonored hand scraping techniques.

Kitamura Machining Centers NEVER use electronic straightness compensation to adjust squareness, parallelism or perpendicularity.

Built Solid by Design

Only the highest grade Meehanite Cast Iron is used in Mycenter Machining Center construction.

Meehanite Cast construction coupled with our induction hardened, precision ground solid boxways provides the mass, stability and damping necessary to withstand extreme cutting conditions and deliver peak accuracy.

Our manufacturing process is streamlined for optimum efficiency. All machine components are of the highest quality, and are assembled, inspected and tested by a team of dedicated craftsmen. You’ll find only the finest in a Kitamura.

CRAFTSMANSHIP

CRAFTSMANSHIP

• How a Machine is Designed is Pivotal to How it Preforms
• Kitamura’s “Mycenter” Machining Centers are built on Kitamura’s premise of TGA-True Geometric Accuracy.
• Kitamura designs and builds its machines precisely, from the ground up, no short cuts in design and manufacture.
• Hand scraping of all mounted surfaces requiring assembly in order to provide the full surface contact and proper alignment necessary to ensure exacting parallelism and perpendicularity.
