Our best estimate for the Chiron DZ 16W is $550,000 - $800,000. 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-16w#price; the request is passed to Chiron or an authorised dealer.
Chiron lists 340 mm in X, 680 mm in Y and 400 mm in Z. The two spindles are 320 mm apart, so the X travel is close to the spindle spacing and Y is the long axis of the machine.
The taper is HSK-A63. Maximum speed is listed from 12,500 to 20,000 rpm and torque from 86 to 208 Nm, depending on the spindle chosen. The table does not state which torque belongs to which speed, so confirm the pairing for the spindle being quoted.
Up to 78 mm in diameter with all pockets occupied and 160 mm with the adjacent pockets empty. Maximum tool length is 450 mm and maximum tool weight is 10.0 kg. Magazine capacity runs from 2 x 28 to 2 x 80 tools in a chain magazine.
The DZ 15S lists 400 mm (15.7 in) of X and Y and 425 mm (16.7 in) of Z, spindles of 12,000 to 20,000 rpm in SK-40 or HSK-A63 and 2 x 12 tools. The DZ 16W has less X at 340 mm but 680 mm of Y, HSK-A63 only, and chain magazines from 2 x 28 to 2 x 80 tools.
Rapid traverse is 75 m/min in X, Y and Z. Acceleration is 10 m/s² in X, 9 m/s² in Y and 11 m/s² in Z, and the chip-to-chip tool change time is 2.1 s.
