KURAKI KBM-11A HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Kuraki KBM-11A is a robust horizontal machining center featuring a large work table measuring 37.4" x 41.34", capable of supporting heavy workpieces up to 5,500 lbs. It is equipped with a #50 spindle taper, delivering a maximum speed of 1,500 RPM powered by a 25 HP motor rated for 30 minutes. The machine utilizes a 5-axis configuration including a full 360° B-axis rotary table, providing enhanced flexibility for complex machining tasks. The axes travel capacities are 39.37" in X and Y, and 27.56" in Z, with rapid traverse rates up to 472 inches per minute, ensuring efficient material removal and cycle times. Tooling is managed by a 30-position automatic tool changer (ATC), with an option to upgrade to 90 tools, enhancing process automation and reducing downtime. This horizontal machining center is designed for heavy-duty machining applications requiring high rigidity, precision, and versatility, supporting a wide range of part sizes and geometries. The horizontal spindle orientation facilitates optimal chip evacuation and stable cutting conditions for large workpieces, making the KBM-11A suitable for sectors such as automotive, aerospace, and heavy equipment manufacturing. Its combination of power, table capacity, and multi-axis capability makes it a high-performance solution for machining complex components with demanding accuracy and throughput requirements.
