The compact Micro5 machining center, to be demonstrated by Chiron Group at IMTS 2022, booth 134542 in the Germany stand, is ideal for machining the smallest medical instruments and delicate parts for microprecision industry. The innovative machine is said to guarantee maximum precision for small, microtechnical workpieces such as medical,…
The ModuleWorks CAS uses real-time machining data and look-ahead technology to detect immanent collisions and stop the machining process before an actual collision occurs. The CHIRON Group uses CAS as part of their ProtectLine digital system to protect their high-end machining centers from potentially expensive damage and downtime. 
This machining center series can be flexibly configured to completely machine larger-sized structural parts which require maximum surface quality and dimensional accuracy, as well as high production rates and minimal downtime. Users will benefit from the machine’s compact layout, available robot or gantry automation, and fully independent Z and X-…
The 715 Series is designed for fully automated, complete machining tasks in the medical technology, aviation and aerospace, energy, and automotive industries. Part size range is bars up to Ø 65 mm or chuck parts up to Ø 200 mm, with maximum workpiece weight of 20 kg.
It is suitable for coating and repairing components up to 500 mm in size, for cylindrical components up to a meter long and for the near-net-shape production of semi-finished products. The AM Cube can be provided with up to 3 deposition heads with patented, hardwired energy, material and data supply. Max. workpiece dimensions are: 3-axis: 1,000 x…
The Series 22 combines both high-speed and high-precision processing for complete production of even large high-precision components. Featuring two workpiece-changing table variants, part capacities are generous - the 4-axis trunnion plate version handles 680 mm x 1,330 mm dia., up to 600 kg; and the twin-spindle 5-axis version handles 2 x 599 mm…
The Chiron FZ/DZ 25 vertical machining center series is for highly productive machining of complex, large-volume structural components for the automotive and aerospace industries.
CNC machining centers from Chiron combine consistently high production quality, flexibility, low unit costs and short lead times for an optimal process. The addition of the Chiron Variocell Pallet automation cell enables the new high-efficiency FZ/DZ 16 series vertical machining center to produce small batches of a variety of workpieces in an even…
Producing complex aerospace parts such as vanes, blisks and impellers requires a particularly fast, very precise and extremely dynamic machining center. For manufacturing critical components used in engine and turbine construction, this means a 5-axis machining center. Machines for highly dynamic milling with five simultaneously controlled axes…
CHIRON introduces its new vertical twin-spindle 5-axis machining center, DZ08 FX Precision. The machine includes contact-free linear direct drives in the X. Y and Z axes. These drives bring the spindles faster to optimum feed rates and permit increased traverse rates. Compared to the previous model, this machining center produces aluminum…
DZ 12K S MAGNUM five axis from Chiron America Inc. is a double-spindle, highly productive, 5-axis complete machining center with 2-axis tilt rotary table for milling and turning complex workpieces in one set-up.

Sold by Germany-headquartered Chiron Group, the refrigerator-size Micro5 machining center is designed to machine small and delicate parts for industries like medical, jewelry, watchmaking and electronics. The five-axis machine  can handle workpiece sizes up to 50 mm x 50 mm x 50 mm.
Simultaneous machining on two to four spindles enhances efficiency and lowers the cost per part for high-volume production. In this CTE video supplement to "When more is better," featured in the October 2015 Cutting Tool Engineering magazine, Chiron demonstrates why it’s critical is to properly capacitize a multispindle machine.
