KITAMURA MYCENTER-HX250IG HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Kitamura MYCENTER-HX250iG is a high-performance horizontal machining center designed for precision and efficiency. It features a compact table measuring 10" x 10" (254 x 254 mm) supporting a maximum workpiece load of approximately 100 kg and accommodating workpieces up to 350 mm diameter and 400 mm height. The machine offers travel distances of 12" (305 mm) on the X and Y axes and 13" (330 mm) on the Z axis, with rapid traverse rates of up to 2,362 inches per minute, enabling swift and precise movements. The horizontal spindle, featuring NST#30 taper with an optional HSK-E40, operates at speeds up to 15,000 RPM, with a high-speed option of 30,000 RPM for enhanced cutting performance. Tooling capacity includes a standard automatic tool changer (ATC) with 40 tools, expandable up to 102 tools, and rapid tool change times of 1.2 seconds (tool-to-tool) and 2.8 seconds (chip-to-chip), facilitating minimal downtime. Equipped with a 3-axis configuration standard, the machine supports an optional 4-axis setup for complex machining tasks. The pallet changer system includes two pallets, enabling efficient part loading/unloading and continuous operation. The machine's rigid Meehanite cast construction ensures stability and precision, weighing approximately 4,500 kg. Power requirements are around 30 kVA with 200V AC, 3-phase supply, and air demand near 0.5 MPa at 300 L/min. Overall, the MYCENTER-HX250iG is optimized for high-speed, tight-tolerance horizontal machining in compact footprints suitable for aerospace, medical, and precision manufacturing sectors.
