KITAMURA MYCENTER 3X VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Kitamura MyCenter 3X is a precision vertical machining center designed for job shops requiring versatile 3-axis capabilities in a compact footprint. This machine features a robust work envelope with 30 inches of X-travel, 17.9 inches of Y-travel, and 18 inches of Z-travel, accommodating workpieces up to 1,100 pounds on its 16.1" x 35.4" table. The machine is powered by a dual-range gear-driven spindle system delivering 10 horsepower with stepless speed control ranging from 20 to 10,000 RPM, enabling efficient machining across diverse material types. The spindle accommodates CAT-40 tool holders with rapid feed rates of 1,181 ipm on X and Y axes and 945 ipm on the Z-axis, maximizing throughput and productivity. The integrated 20-position side-mount automatic tool changer (ATC) enables rapid tool exchanges, minimizing spindle downtime during multi-operation cycles. The machine utilizes a Yasnac or Fanuc CNC control system, providing intuitive programming and reliable performance for complex machining tasks. Its rigid Meehanite cast-iron construction with precision linear guide ways ensures exceptional accuracy and repeatability, making the MyCenter 3X ideal for producing precision components in automotive, aerospace, and general manufacturing applications where tight tolerances and consistent quality are paramount.
