Rigidity

Rigidity – Machine Construction

• Solid column construction with high grade Meehanite casting combined with induction hardened slide ways ground to a super finish.

• Solid box guide ways deliver maximum anti-vibration capabilities and overall longer machine tool life.

• Hand craftsmanship ensures high quality and attention to detail in the manufacturing process

• Zero overhang design allows “Mycenters” to deliver peak accuracy 2-3 times longer than Machining Centers with table overhang

Solid Box Guide Ways

• Box ways are induction hardened in-house and precision ground with a turcite coating on the mating surface.

• Provides for maximum surface contact and exceptional anti-vibration capabilities under WOLD’S FASTEST rapid feedrates of 60m/min (2,362ipm).

• Solid box ways offer the user heavier cutting abilities, better surface finished and overall longer tool life.

Highest Grade Meehanite Cast Iron (GA50) –Bed, Column, Saddle, Table & Head Stock  

• Optimum Damping capacity

• Superb vibration absorption

• Maintains ultra-high accuracies of  ±0.002mm (±0.000079”) Full Stroke

Thick-wall and Ribbed Box Way Construction      

• Kitamura is the only Manufacturer who can offer this construction coupled with world’s fastest feedrates of 60m/min (2,362ipm)

• Keeps machine components free from distortions, at the same time, offering superior integrity and reliability

• Heavier overall machine weight when compared with the competition enables the ability to take heavier cuts, all the while ensuring ultra-high end accuracy
