CHIRON MT 734 2C HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The CHIRON MT 734 2C is a 9-axis horizontal turning and milling center engineered for complex multi-task machining operations. This advanced machine features two main spindles, each rated at 4,000 RPM and 57 HP, enabling simultaneous turning and milling on up to six sides with 90-degree indexing capability between horizontal and vertical spindle positions. The main spindle accommodates workpieces up to 4.000" in turning diameter and 12.500" in length, with a 6.000" chuck diameter supporting bar stock up to 4.000" diameter. The machine delivers exceptional versatility with dual tool systems: a 64-position automatic tool changer for turning operations and a 64-position rotary tool carousel featuring a 67 HP, 12,000 RPM rotary tool for high-speed milling and drilling applications. Two simultaneous cutting tools enable concurrent operations, maximizing productivity and reducing cycle times. The XYZ linear axes provide substantial travel distances of 31.400", 17.300", and 20.070" respectively, with rapid traverse rates reaching 2,358 IPM across all axes. This configuration facilitates complete workpiece machining in minimal setups, significantly reducing throughput times and improving precision for complex aerospace, medical device, and automotive components. The machine's integrated design minimizes material handling and logistics costs while supporting both small batch and production runs with remarkable flexibility and efficiency.
