The development of the new CHIRON FZ/DZ16 was determined by your requirements: High precision, dynamics and best surface quality for increasingly complex workpieces. Result of this intensive Dialogue with the market is a fundamentally new machine platform with mobile gantry design. Advantage for you: Outstanding productivity, highest precision and maximum flexibility are no longer a contradiction.

CHIRON FZ16 S
The single-spindle FZ16 S five axis is designed for special precision requirements in 5-axis machining. At the same time, the machining center shines with optimum values regarding dynamics and thus ensures highest productivity. In short: More parts at highest precision.

CHIRON DZ16 W
The double spindle DZ16 W with workpiece changing device for loading and unloading during machining is the specialist for larger quantities. With even greater dynamics, the machining center produces complex parts with unprecedented precision. In short: Highly precise parts at maximum productivity.

Machine concept and variants

Machine concept

Perfectly matched high-tech modules

meeting the highest demands and customized production application

Highly flexible – due to the modular building block principle:

  • Mobile gantry design
  • Small footprint even with a large number of tools
  • Mineral casting machine bed, inherently stiff and vibration-damping
  • High static and dynamic stiffness
  • Excellent thermal stability
  • Highly productive motor spindles
  • Rotary axes with torque direct drive
  • Actively cooled drive components
  • Ideal chip flow through hanging cradle and steeply sloping walls
  • Loading and unloading of tools during machining
  • Context-sensitive and intuitive TouchLine operating system
  • Condition monitoring at the control panel via IO-Link and ProfiNet
  • Service-friendly accessibility to all components
