Leader CNC has introduced the Kitamura Mycenter 4XT 5-axis machining centre with trunnion table to the UK.
Featuring a work envelope of 800 by 610 by 510 mm in X, Y and Z, an A-axis tilt travel of -42 to +120°, and a 0 to 260° rotational C-axis, the Mycenter 4XT features a solid box guideway configuration that incorporates a four-slideway base construction design.
The machine features a dual contact spindle (BT40) with a speed range from 20 to 15,000 rpm and 26 kW power output.
Rapids of 36 m/min operate in the X, Y and Z axes, with cutting feed rates of 10 m/min. This speed is possible for 4+1 axis machining with a rapid feed on the A and C axes of 4,800 and 8,000 deg/min respectively. The 30-tool ATC can change tools in 2.5 seconds.
