Kent USA's New HMC Built for High-Speed, Precise Aluminum Machining

KENT USA's new KSH-4000P series Horizontal Machining Center series is specifically engineered for machining aluminum alloy parts.

The machine body utilizes a 3-point support structure for easy leveling adjustment and stable installation. X-axis roller guideways on a stepped bed enhance structural rigidity, reduce weight, and save floor space, making the minimized machine width design advantageous for mass production line planning.

Equipped with Fanuc 0i-MF Control featuring a 10.4" color LCD and Manual Guide i, the New-Style Horizontal Machining Center boasts a 15,000 RPM built-in spindle with air/oil mist lubrication and cooler, Big Plus CAT-40, 60-tool arm-type ATC, full B-axis with 0.001-degree precision, 2-pallet APC, preparation for field tool setter installation, 400 psi CTS, and an integrated dual-level chip conveyor designed for aluminum machining.

High precision positioning cones with a hydraulic locking device generate a clamping force of 4.2 tons, ensuring table stability during machining. The KSH series is ideal for applications requiring smaller strokes and precise aluminum parts machining.

The horizontal machining center series features a traveling column design for compactness and speed. The smallest model, the 4000P, measures 69" (1752 mm) in width and offers X-Y-Z axis travels of 20" x 20" x 20" (500 mm x 500 mm x 500 mm).

Double nut pre-loaded class 3 ball screws enable rapid traverse rates and acceleration/deceleration. The Absolute Pulse Coder servo system eliminates the need for zero return, allowing the machine to start from any position.

The standard 60-station automatic tool changer executes tool changes in 1.4 seconds with an average chip-to-chip time of only 2.6 seconds (4000P) and 3.0 seconds (5000P). A rotary-type automatic pallet changer switches pallets in 5.9 -- 7.0 seconds.
