Technical Description
The Kitamura Mycenter 4XD is a high-performance vertical machining center designed for precision and heavy-duty machining tasks. It features a powerful 35 HP high-torque spindle capable of speeds up to 12,000 RPM with a CAT-40 taper, delivering optimal rigidity and cutting efficiency across a wide range of materials. The machine includes a spacious 50" x 25.2" table accommodating large workpieces up to 2,545 lbs, supported by robust X, Y, and Z axis travels of 43", 24", and 24" respectively, enabling versatile machining capabilities. The 30-station automatic tool changer (ATC) increases productivity by reducing tool change times during complex jobs. The Mycenter 4XD is controlled via the FANUC Oi-MD CNC system, which supports precise 3-axis control with advanced functions such as AI contour control, rigid tapping, and flexible feed gear options. The CNC system facilitates simultaneous axis control, automatic data backup, and extensive programmability for efficient, high-accuracy operations. Rapid traverse rates of up to 1,417 IPM on X and Y axes and 1,181 IPM on the Z axis improve cycle times, while solid box guideways and a four-slideway base design enhance stability and vibration absorption for superior surface finishes and tool life. Additional features include coolant systems with through-spindle cooling, telescopic way covers for durability, chip conveyors for effective chip evacuation, and user-friendly CNC interfaces for optimized shop-floor productivity. Overall, the Mycenter 4XD is engineered for demanding job shop environments seeking a flexible, rigid, and high-speed vertical machining center.
