Used Kitamura CNC Machines

Kitamura CNC Machine Tools

Kitamura machine tools are precisely designed and built, with no shortcuts in either design or manufacture. They are built out of the highest-grade Meehanite Cast Iron and, when coupled with the induction-hardened, solid boxways, possess the mass, stability and damping required to withstand extreme cutting conditions while still maintaining high accuracy.

Hand-crafted performance

All mounted surfaces that require assembly are hand-scraped in order to provide full surface contact and proper alignment. This gives Kitamura machines a high-precision finish and a perfect fit that can’t be accomplished through machines alone.

Contact surfaces are scraped by some of the world’s most experienced machine tool technicians and can as a result machines achieve accuracies of ±0.002mm (±0.000079”) Full Stroke with (±0.000039”) repeatability.

Gear-driven spindles

Unlike some other competing machine tools, the spindles on Kitamura machines are multi-step and gear-driven. This means that motor characteristics do not influence the spindle’s movement, resulting in high-efficiency cutting performance with relatively low energy consumption.

The 4-step gear allows for up to 20,000 rpm spindle speeds, which is one of the world’s fastest speeds available. And yet the spindle is still capable of delivering strong low-end torque and high-end fine finish--all from the same machine.

Intelligent Advance Control System (IAC)

Kitamura machines have an exclusive control system that consists of strategically-located sensors and machine efficiency monitors. These sensors allow the system to control the effects of heat displacement on the machine head to less than ±5 microns, for continuous machining accuracy.
