Chiron machine tools

High speed and precision are standard.

Chiron has been exclusively developing vertical machining centres according to the moving column principle for several decades.

The concentration on this very advantageous and proven type of machine construction is the basis for the outstanding performance data as well as the high qualification of our employees in development, assembly, application consulting, application and service.

Profile & Bar Machining

CHIRON’s CNC-controlled machines with up to 7 axes have proven themselves to be "multi-functional profit centers" for more and more users.  Manufacturers of highly sophisticated parts can be profitable with piece quantities beginning with batch sizes as small as 1 model with our selection of high-speed machining centers.

Our profile and bar machining centers can be equipped with an integrated turning spindle, linear axis, rotating unit for back-side machining and a short bar feeder. The complete machining of bar material with CHIRON machining centers offer extremely short lead times and easy retooling.

 

5 Axis Machining

With the CHIRON five-axis series machining centers you can produce the highest quality machining operations such as slots, holes, pockets and tight geometries with high process stability. The unique CHIRON basket tool changer combined with fast rapid feeds in X / Y / Z axes and the dynamic NC tilt rotary tables reduce non-cutting times to a minimum.

 

Multi-spindle Machining

CHIRON twin-spindle machining centers are setting productivity records. The simple formula is: twice the number of work-pieces in the same amount of time. With two high-performance spindles, several work-pieces can be completely machined at the same time on up to 5 sides in one set-up. Innovative machine ideas, like the CHIRON 2-spindle machine, in conjunction with high-performance tools fine-tuned to the machining task, significantly reduce the time per piece. For example, 4 clamped work-pieces can mean piece cost savings of up to 40%!

 

Long Bed and Dual Zone Machining

The large area for efficient work-piece machining in pendulum mode and with multiple set-ups. The work area of the longbed machining center can be divided into two areas separated by the center divider. The advantage: loading and unloading on one side during machining on the other side resulting in the reduction of non-productive times.
