Chiron MC 334 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

The Chiron MC 334 Vertical Machining Center is a high-performance, dual-spindle CNC machining solution designed for precision vertical milling operations. It features a dual vertical spindle arrangement with CAT 40/ISO 40 tapers (optionally HSK 63), capable of reaching speeds up to 10,000 RPM (with an optional 12,000 RPM variant) and powered by 80 HP motors rated for 30-minute operation. The machine offers a robust work table measuring 43.3" x 23.03", capable of supporting workpieces up to 1,155 lbs, with a standard index table and optional rotary table support to enhance flexibility. Equipped with a chain-type automatic tool changer holding up to 64 tools, the MC 334 boasts a fast chip-to-chip tool change time of 3.3 seconds, optimizing productivity. It operates primarily with a 3-axis configuration (X, Y, Z), with optional 4-axis capability. The axis travels measure 31.39" (X), 20.47" (Y), and 20" (Z), all supporting rapid traverse rates up to 2,633 inches per minute, ensuring high-speed, precise machining across a diverse range of part sizes. The machine’s rotational axes offer full 180° (A) and 360° (B) rotation for complex machining tasks. The MC 334 is engineered to deliver precision, rigidity, and thermal stability. Its compact design supports dynamic machining with high tool capacity and multi-spindle capability, enabling efficient manufacturing across sectors requiring medium to large-sized workpieces with demanding tolerance and surface quality requirements. The integration of optional rotary tables and possible axis expansions further expand its versatility for complex geometries and multi-sided machining setups.
