Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a vertical machining centers (vmc) in this class — not a quote from Kitamura. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Kitamura Mycenter 4XiG is listed with a maximum workpiece weight of 800 kg (1,764 lb) on a 510 x 1120 mm table, with 1020 mm (40.2 in) of X travel and 510 mm (20.1 in) each of Y and Z. Its spindle is an NST No. 40 unit rated 41 HP with a top speed of 15,000 rpm.
X travel is exactly twice the Y travel, so the envelope is a long rectangle. That shape suits bar-like parts and plates, and it suits production with several vises side by side, each within reach of every tool. The 800 kg (1,764 lb) limit is generous for vise work, and heavy fixture plates remain possible provided fixture and part together stay under the figure.
All three axes share one rapid rate, 2,362 ipm (60 m/min), where the Mycenter-3020G lists 50 m/min (1,969 ipm) in X and Y but 36 m/min (1,417 ipm) in Z. On a part with a great many holes or pockets, the retract and approach moves in Z are the most frequent rapid moves in the program, so an equal Z rate shortens the cycle more than the headline X and Y figure suggests. Tool-to-tool time is 2.2 sec from a 40-tool magazine.
Positioning accuracy is ±0.002 mm (±0.000079 in) over the full stroke, which here means the full 1020 mm of X, and repeatability is ±0.001 mm (±0.000039 in). The Mycenter-4XV is listed with the same travels, table and spindle figures. For more Y, the Mycenter-5XV goes to 710 mm (28 in) with 1270 mm (50 in) of X.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Maximum workpiece weight of 800 kg (1,764 lb)
- Equal rapid rate of 2,362 ipm (60 m/min) on X, Y and Z
- 41 HP NST No. 40 spindle with a 15,000 rpm top speed
- 1020 mm (40.2 in) of X travel on a 1120 mm (44.1 in) long table
- 40-tool magazine with a 2.2 sec tool-to-tool time
Limitations
- Y travel is 510 mm (20.1 in), half the X travel, so wide parts need the Mycenter-5XV with 710 mm (28 in)
- Top speed is 15,000 rpm; the Mycenter-3020G is the model that reaches 20,000 rpm
- No chip-to-chip time, spindle torque or power supply figure is listed for this model

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The listed maximum workpiece weight is 800 kg (1,764 lb). The table measures 510 x 1120 mm. Count vises, fixture plates and any rotary unit toward the limit along with the part itself.
02
1020 mm (40.2 in) in X, 510 mm (20.1 in) in Y and 510 mm (20.1 in) in Z. The table is 1120 mm (44.1 in) long, a little more than the X travel, and 510 mm wide, the same as the Y travel.
03
Rapid traverse is 2,362 ipm (60 m/min) on each of X, Y and Z. Tool-to-tool time is 2.2 sec and the magazine holds 40 tools. A chip-to-chip time is not listed for this model.
04
An NST No. 40 spindle with 41 HP and a maximum of 15,000 rpm. Positioning accuracy is ±0.002 mm (±0.000079 in) over the full stroke and repeatability is ±0.001 mm (±0.000039 in). No torque figure is given.
05
The two are listed with the same travels of 1020 mm (40.2 in), 510 mm (20.1 in) and 510 mm (20.1 in), the same 15,000 rpm NST No. 40 spindle, 40 tools and 60 m/min (2,362 ipm) rapids. If you are comparing quotations, treat them as the same size class and compare the option lists line by line.
