Kinetic K5200

Q: How much does the Kinetic K5200 cost?

The price estimate for the Kinetic K5200 is uncertain: we have no price for it that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so we give no figure. Configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/kinetic-k5200#price; the request is passed to Kinetic or an authorised dealer.

Price estimate

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the Kinetic K5200 that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.

Overview

The Kinetic K5200 is the unloading version of the company's largest combination plate processor. Kinetic states that it is identical to the K5000 but comes configured for the addition of an automated part removal system, so the cutting and machining figures carry over unchanged: plasma up to 4 in (102 mm) thick, oxy fuel up to 8 in (203 mm) thick, and a CAT 50 spindle with 24 tool stations.

Read the wording carefully. The machine is configured for the part removal robot, and the robot itself is described as an option. When it is fitted, a low-profile automated carriage picks, places and palletizes finished parts and sorts them by part, work order or batch number. It can travel under the cutting gantry, which is the point of the design, because the gantry does not have to stop while parts come off the table. The unloader is available in 48 in (1,219 mm) or 60 in (1,524 mm) size.

One figure does change. The table is listed up to 16 ft (4.88 m) wide, narrower than the 18 ft (5.49 m) maximum of the K5000, while length is still up to 200 ft (60.96 m). Shops that need the full width should check which matters more to them, the span or the unloading.

Machining capacity is the top of the range. High-production drilling runs up to a 4 in (102 mm) hole, tapping up to a 2-1/16 in (52 mm) hole, and boring to 8 in (203 mm), with tool changes in under 3 seconds. Parts leave the table drilled, tapped, marked and already sorted, which removes the manual shake-out step that usually follows a combination machine.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

Configured for an automated part removal robot that unloads, sorts, palletizes and stacks parts
The unloading carriage can travel under the cutting gantry, so cutting continues while parts are removed
Unloader available in 48 in (1,219 mm) or 60 in (1,524 mm) size
CAT 50 spindle with drilling up to a 4 in (102 mm) hole and tapping up to a 2-1/16 in (52 mm) hole
Parts can be sorted by part, work order or batch number as they come off the table

Limitations

Table width is listed up to 16 ft (4.88 m), against 18 ft (5.49 m) on the K5000
The part removal robot is optional equipment; the K5200 is the machine configured to take it
The options list for this model does not include the water table or pass-through table technology that the K5000 list has
The unloader comes in two sizes only, 48 in (1,219 mm) or 60 in (1,524 mm), so check it against the largest part to be picked

Best For

High-volume plate processing where unloading is the bottleneck Jobs that need parts sorted by work order or batch number Heavy plate with holes up to 4 in (102 mm) and automated palletizing Lines that must keep cutting while finished parts are removed

Frequently Asked Questions

01 Does the Kinetic K5200 include the part unloading robot?

Not necessarily. Kinetic says the K5200 comes configured for the addition of its automated part removal system and refers to that system as an automated option, if included. Its headline list reads that the machine automatically unloads when equipped with the optional robot, so confirm the robot is on the quotation.

02 What does the automated part removal system do?

It uses a low-profile, automated carriage to pick, place and palletize parts, and it can sort them by part, work order or batch number. The carriage can travel under the cutting gantry, so the machine does not have to stop for parts to be removed. The unloader is available in 48 in (1,219 mm) or 60 in (1,524 mm) size.

03 Is the K5200 different from the K5000 in cutting or drilling capacity?

No. Both are listed for plasma up to 4 in (102 mm) thick, oxy fuel up to 8 in (203 mm) thick, drilling up to a 4 in (102 mm) hole and tapping up to a 2-1/16 in (52 mm) hole on a CAT 50 spindle. The difference is the configuration for part removal and the table width.

04 How wide can a K5200 table be?

Up to 16 ft (4.88 m) wide and up to 200 ft (60.96 m) long, according to the table size list. The K5000, without the unloading configuration, is listed up to 18 ft (5.49 m) wide.
