Chiron MC 536 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC machining center features a robust table/work support with a standard table size of 42.000 inches (L) x 26.000 inches (W), expandable to an optional length of 86.000 inches for increased workpiece capacity. The machine is equipped with two vertical main spindles, each utilizing an HSK100 taper for high rigidity and precision, supporting a maximum spindle speed of 10,500 RPM and delivering a 30-minute rated power of 90 HP for demanding machining tasks. Tooling is managed by a chain-type automatic tool changer (ATC) with a capacity of 42 tools, enabling rapid tool changes with a chip-to-chip time of just 4.8 seconds for improved productivity. The machine operates on three primary axes (X, Y, Z), with an optional fourth axis for enhanced versatility. Axis travel and feed rates are optimized for efficient material removal and high-speed machining, supporting both high feed rates and rapid traverse speeds to minimize cycle times. The HSK100 spindle taper ensures secure tool holding and excellent concentricity, while the chain-type ATC provides reliable and fast tool exchange. This configuration is ideal for high-volume production and complex machining operations, offering a balance of power, speed, and flexibility for a wide range of industrial applications.
