CHIRON MILL 3000 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

The CHIRON MILL 3000 is a high-performance vertical machining center designed for precision and versatility in demanding production environments. Featuring a robust vertical moving column principle, the machine delivers large working areas with a travel of 118 inches (X), 24 inches (Y), and 21.6 inches (Z), making it ideal for machining both small and large workpieces. The MILL 3000 is equipped with a CNC control system, supporting options from Siemens, Fanuc, or Heidenhain, ensuring seamless integration into diverse manufacturing workflows. Its modular design allows for flexible configuration, including upgrades to 4- or 5-axis machining with integrated NC swivel heads and rotary tables for complex, multi-sided operations. The machine boasts high rigidity and thermal stability thanks to its sturdy mineral-cast or polymer-concrete machine bed, ensuring consistent accuracy even during extended production runs. Dynamic direct drives and precision guides enable rapid traverses and high acceleration, while the swivel head provides additional flexibility for intricate milling tasks. The MILL 3000 supports automated tool changes with a pick-up method, reducing non-productive times and enhancing efficiency. Optional automation solutions, such as integrated loaders and robotic handling systems, further optimize productivity and process reliability. The machine is designed for easy loading and unloading, with ergonomic access and the ability to divide the work area for parallel machining or simultaneous loading/unloading. With its combination of speed, precision, and adaptability, the CHIRON MILL 3000 is a market-leading solution for high-volume and high-mix manufacturing applications across industries such as automotive, aerospace, and medical.
