{"id":"kitamura-mycenter-3020g","model_id":"Mycenter-3020G","name":"Kitamura Mycenter-3020G Sparkchanger","summary":"The Mycenter-3020G Sparkchanger is a vertical 3-axis machining center with a 180-degree rotating two-station automatic pallet changer, so pallets can be loaded and unloaded while the other station is cutting. It uses a 20,000 rpm, 4-step gear-driven dual-contact spindle in an NST No. 40 taper and holds 30 tools. Solid box ways on X and Y, ballscrew cooling and an IAC system support work on small to medium-size parts and molds.","study_notes":["Positioning accuracy stated as ±0.001 mm (±0.000079 in) over full stroke.","Tool change time: 2.4 s tool-to-tool and 4.6 s chip-to-chip (minimum).","Spindle is a 20 HP AC, 20,000 min-1, 4-step gear-driven, dual-contact type.","Control is the Arumatik-Mi CNC with 8,190-block look-ahead; touch-screen icon-driven interface.","4th or 5th axis interface can be added in the field.","Spindle-through coolant is plumbed but must be added in the field.","Machine is equipped with ballscrew cooling, an IAC system, internal chip augers, wash and shower coolant, and a double-decker chip conveyor/filtration system.","Solid box ways are used on the X and Y axes; casting is Meehanite.","Power requirement stated as 30 kVA, 200 V AC, 3-phase (apparent power, not converted to kW)."],"safety_notes":[],"sources":[{"url":"https://www.kitamura-machinery.com/products/mycenter-3020g-sparkchanger/","title":"Mycenter-3020G “Sparkchanger” Vertical Machining Center | Kitamura Machinery","accessed":"2026-10-26"}],"verification":{"status":"source_checked","checked_at":"2026-10-26","values":14,"method":"llm_source_check"},"updated_at":"2026-10-26","type":"hardware","spec":{"category":"cnc_mill","manufacturer":"kitamura","controllers":[],"axes":3,"repeatability_mm":0.0005,"travel_x_mm":762,"travel_y_mm":510,"travel_z_mm":510,"spindle_max_rpm":20000,"spindle_power_kw":14.9,"spindle_taper":"NST No. 40","rapid_traverse_m_min":50,"tool_capacity":30,"table_length_mm":860,"table_width_mm":500,"supply_voltage":"200 V AC, 3 Phase","joints":[],"protocols":[],"standards":[],"error_codes":[]},"url":"https://machineschema.com/hardware/kitamura-mycenter-3020g","license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/"}
