Speed and Accuracy
High Speed, Ultra Precise Multi-Step Gear Driven Spindles
- 4-step Gear driven technology, up to 20,000min-1 spindle speeds on #40 Machining Centers. World’s fastest
- Deliver strong low-end torque & high-end fine finish capability in one machine.
- Original shockless drive mechanism minimizes vibration from milling cuts
- Kitamura’s exclusive headstock design completely relieves the spindle bearings from heat generated at the motor allowing for tighter spindle bearing preload, ensuring optimum accuracy & rigidity
Ultra-High Speed Rapids on Solid Box Ways
- World’s fastest at 60m/min (2,362ipm)!
- Patented high-precision twin ballscrew and dual feedback technology in horizontal machine models drive blazing feedrates and acceleration
- Pre-tensioned, fine pitch ballscrews and high-resolution servo motors deliver unparalleled accuracy
16 Million Pulse Encoder Technology
- Deliver outstanding positioning accuracy of ±0.000079”/Full Stroke
- Smaller incremental movements equal finer surface finishes
- Greatly improves cutting accuracy
- Roundness accuracy on circular cut to within 0.00012”
Kitamura’s Exclusive Intelligent Advanced Control System (IAC)
- Consists of a series of strategically located sensors and machine efficiency monitors
- Controls the effects of heat displacement in order to ensure continuous accuracy in machining
- Minimizes head displacement to less than ±5 microns
- Monitors temperature of machine and compensation and has the ability to graphically display temperature changes over a 24hr. period
