2026 KITAMURA MYCENTER 4 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 2026 Kitamura Mycenter 4 is a 3-axis vertical machining center representing the latest generation of Kitamura's large-format VMC platform, combining modern CNC capability with the high-rigidity Meehanite cast iron structure that has defined the Mycenter series. The fixed-column, moving-table design provides consistent thermal symmetry and vibration damping critical for long-run production accuracy. The worktable measures approximately 20.6 by 43.3 inches with axis travels of approximately 36 inches in X, 20.1 inches in Y, and 20.1 inches in Z, accommodating a wide range of medium to large workpieces. The spindle delivers up to 15,000 RPM with robust power output through a CAT-40 or BT-40 taper, enabling both heavy roughing and fine finishing operations. Precision-ground double-nut ball screws on all axes with roller guideways provide high rapid traverse rates and minimal backlash. The machine is equipped with the latest Kitamura Arumatik CNC control, providing conversational programming, look-ahead interpolation, rigid tapping, and advanced high-speed machining cycles. A high-capacity automatic tool changer supports complex multi-step programs. Full enclosure guarding, integrated chip conveyor, and through-spindle coolant options support extended unmanned operation. The Mycenter 4 is well suited for precision mold and die work, aerospace structural components, and demanding production applications requiring a large machining envelope and long-term dimensional stability.
