CHIRON FZ15 S VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The CHIRON FZ15 S Vertical Machining Center is a high-performance 5-axis CNC machining center designed for complex and precise manufacturing tasks. It features an X-axis travel of 28.74 inches, Y-axis travel of 15.75 inches, and Z-axis travel of 16.73 inches, providing substantial working volume for versatile applications. Powered by a robust 58 kW spindle motor, it supports spindle speeds up to 20,000 RPM, enabling high-speed machining with excellent surface finish and accuracy. The machine is equipped with a 20-station automatic tool changer (ATC) using the HSK-63A taper, allowing swift tool changes and extended machining autonomy. The control system is CNC-based for precise, programmable operation and integration into automated workflows. It delivers rapid axis accelerations (12 m/s²) and rapid feedrates of 75 m/min, ensuring efficient cycle times with chip-to-chip times as low as 1.7 seconds. Built with high rigidity and precision, it incorporates backlash-free preloaded gears and precision glass scales on all axes to achieve outstanding positioning accuracy. The 2-axis tilting rotary table facilitates simultaneous 5-axis machining, enabling complex contouring and multi-sided machining in a single setup. Designed for industries such as aerospace, automotive, and medical device manufacturing, the FZ15 S supports a wide range of materials including aluminum, titanium, and steel. Its durable construction and easy maintenance features contribute to reliable, long-term production performance. Overall, the CHIRON FZ15 S is tailored for high-speed, high-precision, and high-productivity vertical machining operations requiring advanced 5-axis capabilities.
