LASER VERIFICATION

MEEHANITE CASTINGS

HEADSTOCK OVERLAP

All KMCs are laser verified and ballbar tested for ±0.0004" (±0.01 mm) positioning accuracy over the full X and Y table travel before being shipped.

All machine frames are cast of durable Meehanite with superior rigidity and vibration dampening characteristics.

The 43/8" (110 mm) diameter, hardened and precision-ground quill has more overlap support in the headstock than other machines for chatter-free milling and boring.

ULTRA PRECISION BALL LEADSCREWS

BOX WAYS AND DOVETAIL GUIDES

ULTRA QUICK CHANGE SYSTEM (OPTIONAL)

Precision-ground, zero-backlash, 11/4" (32 mm) diameter, reciprocating ball leadscrews for ±0.0001" (±0.0025 mm) repeatability over full length of table travel.

Massive square box ways support the saddle while dovetail guideways are used for accuracy alignment. Ways are ground to a 16 microinch finish and hardened to HRC 55-60. Weight bearing surfaces are coated with a Turcite-type anti-friction material.

This unique system lets you switch tools in less than 2 seconds with the use of a simple electro-pneumatic on/off button, while using standard BT OR CV #40 - taper tooling.

RAM CONSTRUCTION

Z-AXIS LEADSCREW MOUNTING

SPINDLE POWER

KMCs have sliding rams for flexibility in machining over-sized and odd-shaped parts. Solid ram construction is available depending upon the user's preference.

The Z-axis leadscrew is mounted at a minimum distance from the quill, resulting in accurate axial positioning and superior deflection resistance. Milling rigidity is greatly enhanced.

At 265 RPM of the cutter, the programmable speed spindle motor reaches its full horsepower rating (7.5 HP - 30 minute duty rating) and produces 149 ft.-lbs. (20 kgm) of torque, allowing you to mill, drill and tap materials other machines can barely cut.
