By contributing with technological solutions that strengthen their customers’ ability to compete locally and globally, Ellison Technologies is committed to the survival and progress of American Manufacturing. The company announced today that it will become the exclusive distributor for Kitako in Northern and Central Illinois. Ellison Technologies has been serving Illinois manufacturers since 1981, and the most recent addition to the product offering solidifies its place as the top choice for machine tool distributors in this market. Whether the solution involves a stand alone machine, multi-process equipment, or an integrated manufacturing system with robotic automation, Ellison’s goal remains the same; to optimize throughput and quality at the lowest per-part manufacturing cost. Kitako Corporation, based in Hiroshima, Japan, produces high production CNC lathes. Kitako four-spindle vertical and horizontal CNC lathes allow for machining on two spindles while parts are loaded and unloaded on the other two spindles. All four spindles are on a large carrier that indexes in less than 2 seconds. This virtually eliminates part loading time. Manufacturers can triple their production by using high speed, bi-directional indexing for productivity without sacrificing flexibility. This partnership brings Illinois manufacturers the superior machining capabilities of Kitako and the very strong application engineering, service and automation capabilities of Ellison Technologies. |
