“I cannot convey enough how excited and honored our team is to be selected by Kitamura to represent the product in Michigan, Indiana and Kentucky,” says David Cochenour, director of operations at Next Industries. “Knowing the history of quality, accuracy and speed of the Kitamura brand made the decision an easy one for our team. As a full-service solutions provider, our team has been recognized for putting the customer first and providing value-added solutions. Adding Kitamura to our lineup allows us to provide our customers with extremely rigid and accurate machining centers without sacrificing speed. This is true not only for the 2,362-ipm rapids they achieve on solid box ways, but also for their patented 20,000-rpm high-torque, four-step gear-driven spindles.”
