About Kitamura Machines

Kitamura Machinery is a Japanese machine-tool manufacturer based in Toyama Prefecture. Its product development is concentrated on machining centers rather than a broad mix of unrelated machine types. The company’s range includes compact and full-size vertical machining centers, pallet-equipped horizontal machining centers, Bridgecenter double-column machines and vertical or horizontal 5-axis systems.

Several construction details help distinguish Kitamura equipment. The manufacturer emphasizes hand-scraped mating surfaces to establish machine geometry, together with rigid cast structures and box-way construction on applicable models. Selected machines use geared spindle systems to combine useful torque with higher spindle speeds. Current equipment can also incorporate the Arumatik-Mi CNC platform, expanded tool storage, pallet management and automation for unattended production.

Vertical Mycenter machines are suited to general precision parts, tooling and mold components. Horizontal models support multi-face production, longer unattended cycles and repeated machining of components on pallet fixtures. Bridgecenter machines provide the travels and structural capacity needed for larger molds and industrial parts, while 5-axis models target complex aerospace, medical and high-precision workpieces that benefit from fewer setups.

Kitamura machines attract attention in the used market because buyers can choose from several generations, work-envelope sizes and control configurations. Their value depends heavily on condition, maintenance history, spindle health and the continuing availability of control and mechanical support.
