{"id":"kitamura-medcenter5ax","model_id":"MedCenter5AX","name":"Kitamura MedCenter5AX","summary":"The MedCenter5AX is a compact vertical machining center that performs simultaneous 5-axis machining of small to medium multi-sided parts. It uses an HSK-E40 integral drive spindle running from 300 to 30,000 rpm and a 40-position fixed-pot automatic tool changer, with an optional 120-tool changer and optional pallet systems. Linear travels are 254 mm (X), 330 mm (Y) and 330 mm (Z), and the machine is controlled by the Arumatik-Mi CNC.","study_notes":["Positioning accuracy is stated as ±0.001 mm over full stroke; repeatability is ±0.0005 mm.","Spindle speed range is 300 to 30,000 min-1; the spindle is a 25 HP integral drive.","Table size is given as a round table of 170 mm diameter.","Maximum workpiece size is 230 mm diameter by 225 mm height.","Rapid feed is stated as 60 m/min for X, Y and 50 m/min for Z; rotary rapid feed is 100 min-1 (36,000 deg/min) and 200 min-1 (72,000 deg/min).","The 40-tool fixed-pot ATC accepts a maximum tool weight of 4.4 lb; a 120-tool ATC is optional.","Optional automation includes a 20-station APC that can be retrofitted, and 12 and 20/24 station pallet systems.","The Arumatik-Mi CNC has a touch-screen interface, Super Smooth Surface (SSS) control and up to 8,190 block look-ahead.","Accuracy package includes linear and rotary scales, 67 million pulse encoder technology and 16 mm fine pitch ballscrews.","Machine footprint is 4 ft x 7 ft.","Power requirement is 35 kVA at 200 V AC, 3 phase."],"safety_notes":[],"sources":[{"url":"https://www.kitamura-machinery.com/products/medcenter5ax-1-1/","title":"MedCenter5AX 5-Axis Vertical Machining Center | Machinery | Kitamura Machinery","accessed":"2026-10-26"}],"verification":{"status":"source_checked","checked_at":"2026-10-26","values":21,"method":"llm_source_check"},"updated_at":"2026-10-26","type":"hardware","spec":{"category":"cnc_mill","manufacturer":"kitamura","controllers":[],"axes":5,"repeatability_mm":0.0005,"travel_x_mm":254,"travel_y_mm":330,"travel_z_mm":330,"spindle_max_rpm":30000,"spindle_power_kw":18.6,"spindle_taper":"HSK-E40","rapid_traverse_m_min":60,"tool_capacity":40,"supply_voltage":"200 V AC, 3 Phase","max_workpiece_diameter_mm":230,"joints":[{"name":"A","range_min_deg":-120,"range_max_deg":120,"max_speed_deg_s":600},{"name":"C","range_min_deg":0,"range_max_deg":360,"max_speed_deg_s":1200}],"protocols":[],"standards":[],"error_codes":[]},"url":"https://machineschema.com/hardware/kitamura-medcenter5ax","license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/"}
