Kitagawa Launches Two New Rotary Tables at EMO

Workholding and machining equipment supplier, Kitagawa Europe has used EMO to launch the MR201 and TW2180 high productivity NC rotary tables for the UK and European market.

Building on the proven capabilities of Kitagawa’s MR series units, the MR201 achieves a clamping torque of 820 Nm from a standard 0.5 MPa pneumatic supply – more than twice the performance of the range’s MR200 model. It also provides a maximum indexing speed of 41.6 rev/min – up 25% on the MR200 – and incorporates the compact design and excellent indexing accuracy of other MR series units, making it an ideal choice for a wide variety of high speed, rotary axis machining applications. The new unit also features a 202 mm diameter faceplate and a compact motor casing for maximum machining flexibility.

Kitagawa’s TW2180 is an advanced twin spindle table, tilting axis rotary unit capable of supporting simultaneous machining operations of two workpieces in a single set up. It measures just 999 mm wide and features two 180 mm diameter tables with maximum indexing speeds of 33.3 rev/min. In addition, the new TW2180 provides a tilt range of +110 degrees of vertical and a tilt axis speed of up to 16.6 rev/min.
