Our best estimate for a 5-axis machining center in this class — not a quote from Kitamura Machinery. Configuration moves it a long way.

Overview

The Kitamura Supercell-630G is listed as a 5-axis machining center with a 2-pallet automatic pallet changer and 630 x 630 mm (24.8 x 24.8 in) pallets, each carrying up to 1,500 kg (3,307 lb). Kitamura's current lineup does not show this model, so the page treats it as an older machine and works from the listed figures.

Travels are 1,050 mm (41.3 in) in X, 950 mm (37.4 in) in Y and 900 mm (35.4 in) in Z, with a maximum workpiece height of 800 mm (31.5 in). The tilt axis is listed as B at −30° / +110°, and C rotates 360° continuously. The pallet system is listed as expandable to 30 or more pallets and the 60-tool changer as expandable to 120, so individual machines can differ a great deal in how much unattended capacity they have. A pallet change is listed at 15 sec and chip-to-chip at 4.0 sec.

The listed spindle is direct drive, 20,000 RPM, 22 kW (30 hp) and 230 Nm (170 ft-lbf), on CAT 40 / Big Plus dual-contact tooling. That is a modest spindle for pallets rated at 1,500 kg (3,307 lb): the Supercell-1000G lists the same order of load, 1,500 kg (3,300 lb), behind an NST No. 50 taper. Rapids are 30,000 mm/min (1,181 ipm) on X and Y and 24,000 mm/min (945 ipm) on Z, positioning accuracy is 0.003 mm (0.00012 in), and the machine weighs 20,000 kg (44,092 lb).

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

2-pallet automatic pallet changer as standard, listed as expandable to 30 or more pallets
Pallet load of 1,500 kg (3,307 lb) on 630 x 630 mm (24.8 x 24.8 in) pallets
Travels of 1,050 mm (41.3 in), 950 mm (37.4 in) and 900 mm (35.4 in) in X, Y and Z
Direct-drive 20,000 RPM spindle rated 22 kW (30 hp) and 230 Nm (170 ft-lbf)
60-tool changer, listed as expandable to 120

Limitations

230 Nm (170 ft-lbf) on a 40-taper spindle is light for roughing parts near the 1,500 kg (3,307 lb) pallet limit
Pallet change takes 15 sec and chip-to-chip 4.0 sec
Rapids of 30,000 mm/min (1,181 ipm) on X and Y and 24,000 mm/min (945 ipm) on Z are moderate for the travels
Larger pallet pools and the bigger magazine are expansions, so a given machine may have only 2 pallets and 60 tools

Best For

5-axis parts up to 800 mm (31.5 in) tall and 1,500 kg (3,307 lb) Pallet-fed production on 630 x 630 mm (24.8 x 24.8 in) pallets High-speed finishing at up to 20,000 RPM on large parts

Frequently Asked Questions

01 Is the Supercell-630G in Kitamura's current range?

No, it is not in the current lineup, so machines on offer are older ones. The figures here are the listed ones. Pallet pool size, tool magazine size and control vary between builds, so confirm each from the individual machine's documentation.

02 What size and weight of part does the Supercell-630G handle?

Pallets are 630 x 630 mm (24.8 x 24.8 in), with a maximum workpiece weight of 1,500 kg (3,307 lb) and a maximum workpiece height of 800 mm (31.5 in). Travels are 1,050 mm (41.3 in) in X, 950 mm (37.4 in) in Y and 900 mm (35.4 in) in Z.

03 How many pallets and tools does it have?

The standard listing is a 2-pallet automatic pallet changer and a 60-tool changer. The pallet system is listed as expandable to 30 or more pallets and the magazine to 120. A pallet change takes 15 sec and tool change is 4.0 sec chip-to-chip.

04 What is the spindle rated at?

The listed spindle is direct drive at 20,000 RPM with 22 kW (30 hp) and 230 Nm (170 ft-lbf) maximum torque, using CAT 40 / Big Plus dual-contact tooling. It favours fast cutting with small and medium tools; heavy roughing of large steel parts would be slow.
