KURAKI KBT-11W-A HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Kuraki KBT-11W-A is a high-capacity horizontal machining center designed for heavy-duty and precise machining tasks. It features a substantial work table measuring 55.120 inches in length and 62.990 inches in width, capable of supporting workpieces up to 14,300 lbs. The machine utilizes a #50 spindle taper with a horizontal orientation, driven by a 30 HP motor rated for 30 minutes, delivering a maximum spindle speed of 3,000 RPM, suitable for robust cutting requirements. The unit is equipped with a 40-tool automatic tool changer (ATC), enabling efficient tool management and fast production cycles with negligible tool change time. The machining center operates on five axes, with extensive travels of 78.740 inches on the X1 axis, 59.060 inches on the Y1 axis, and 57.090 inches on the Z1 axis, all supported by rapid traverse rates of up to 472 inches per minute, ensuring rapid positioning and cycle time reduction. The B1 axis allows for full 360-degree rotation, enhancing the machine’s versatility in complex machining operations. This configuration supports large, heavy, and complex components while delivering rigid, accurate performance crucial for high-precision manufacturing environments such as aerospace, automotive, and heavy equipment industries. The machine’s robust construction and expansive work envelope enable it to handle substantial machining loads with stability and precision.
