Our best estimate for the Chiron DZ 08 S Five Axis is $450,000 - $600,000. This is an estimate for a 5-axis machining centers in this class, not a quote from Chiron; configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/chiron-dz-08-s-five-axis#price; the request is passed to Chiron or an authorised dealer.
Chiron lists maximum speeds from 18,000 to 40,000 rpm with a maximum torque of 9 to 11 Nm, on HSK-A40 or HSK-E40. There are two spindles, 200 mm (7.9 in) apart. With torque in that range the machine is meant for small-diameter tools, not heavy stock removal.
Up to 63 mm (2.48 in) in diameter, 160 mm (6.3 in) in length and 1.2 kg (2.6 lb) in weight. The chain magazine holds 2 x 16 tools and the chip-to-chip time is 2.8 sec.
Travels are 450 mm (17.7 in) in X, 270 mm (10.6 in) in Y and 310 mm (12.2 in) in Z. Rapid traverse is 75 m/min (2,953 ipm) on each axis. Acceleration is 10 m/s² in X, 15 m/s² in Y and 20 m/s² in Z.
The DZ 15S is the next step in spindle size: SK-40 or HSK-A63 at 12,000 to 20,000 rpm, with 400 mm (15.7 in) of X and Y and 425 mm (16.7 in) of Z, and 2 x 12 tools. The DZ 08 S Five Axis runs faster, to 40,000 rpm, on the smaller HSK-A40 or HSK-E40 taper, and holds 2 x 16 tools.
