Methods Machine Tools, Inc. is set to demonstrate the capabilities of the KIWA KH4100kai Horizontal Machining Center (HMC) in an upcoming event. The company plans to showcase the HMC’s proficiency by performing cutting and drilling operations on 85-pound blocks of 4140 steel. In collaboration with YG-1, this demonstration will highlight the machine’s robust features and adaptability for various industrial applications.
The KIWA KH4100kai is designed to handle a maximum workpiece size of 550mm in diameter by 850mm in length, with the ability to support a maximum workpiece weight of 1,100 lbs. This is facilitated by KIWA’s 9.8 kN x 4-cone pallet clamping system. The machine itself weighs over 16,200 pounds, ensuring substantial rigidity during operations.
As a compact yet high-speed HMC, the KIWA KH4100kai is suitable for high-production and high-mix applications. The machine promises both precision and efficiency in handling complex manufacturing tasks, making it a valuable asset for industries looking to optimize their production processes.
Methods Machine Tools aims to broaden awareness of KIWA Japan’s HMC technologies. Those interested in learning more about the capabilities of this advanced machinery are encouraged to reach out to Jan Andersson at the company.
