A fully automated CNC machining center from CHIRON combines a consistently high production quality, flexibility, low unit costs and short lead times to constitute an optimal process.

For almost any application case and any editing task, CHIRON offers high-performance, fully automated complete solutions. From a single source and based on a CNC machining center from CHIRON.

We already have implemented hundreds of automation projects for our customers – with proven commercial success.

Components that we use in automation, for example:

  • Portal loaders
  • Handling robot
  • Machine-integrated workpiece gripper
  • Workpiece shuttle
  • Infeed and outfeed conveyor belts
  • Infeeds from bar stock and bar loader
  • Pallets

Seamless automation from one source For the automation of your processes, we offer various automation solutions: the integrated VariocellUno automation in a very small area and the flexible and individually configurable Variocell System automation solutions.
