Our best estimate for the Chiron DZ 12W is $450,000 - $575,000. This is an estimate for a vertical machining centers (vmc) 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-12w#price; the request is passed to Chiron or an authorised dealer.
Between 2 x 12 and 2 x 104, in a chain magazine. The count is per spindle, so the largest version keeps 104 tools ready for each of the two spindles. Tool change takes 3.1 s chip to chip.
Two spindles 250 mm apart, with an HSK-A50 or HSK-A63 interface. Speed options run from 15,000 to 24,000 rpm and torque from 29 to 59 Nm. The data sheet does not pair a speed with a torque, so choose the spindle against your largest drill and your smallest end mill.
Within limits. The strongest spindle option delivers 59 Nm and tools may weigh no more than 5.0 kg, which covers drilling, tapping and finishing but not heavy face milling. For steel roughing in pairs, the DZ 22W offers 86 to 208 Nm.
The DZ 22W is the larger twin: 620 × 980 × 600 mm travels, 12,500 to 20,000 rpm, 86 to 208 Nm on HSK-A63 and 2 x 42, 2 x 64 or 2 x 98 tools. The DZ 12W has 550 × 400 × 400 mm travels, higher speeds of 15,000 to 24,000 rpm, lower torque of 29 to 59 Nm and a magazine range of 2 x 12 to 2 x 104.
Nothing that these rows show. The DZ 12S has the same travels, the same 15,000 to 24,000 rpm and 29 to 59 Nm spindle range, the same interfaces and the same magazine sizes. The distinction is not part of this table, so ask Chiron before ordering.
