Our best estimate for the Chiron FZ 22 S Five Axis is $500,000 - $700,000. 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-fz-22-s-five-axis#price; the request is passed to Chiron or an authorised dealer.
The HSK-A63 spindle is listed at 12,500 - 20,000 rpm with 86 - 208 Nm of maximum torque and a magazine of 84 or 154 tools. The HSK-A100 version runs to 10,000 rpm, delivers 408 Nm and comes with 36 - 104 tools. Pick by material: speed for light alloys, torque for steel and titanium.
Maximum workpiece diameter is approximately 1,000 mm (39.4 in). Linear travels are 1,220 mm (48 in) in X, 960 mm (37.8 in) in Y and 600 mm (23.6 in) in Z. The rows give no table load, so the weight of the part and fixture has to be cleared with Chiron.
The FZ 19S Five Axis has 850 mm of X, 980 mm of Y and 700 mm of Z, so it is narrower but taller, and its chain magazine is listed at 42 – 196 tools. The FZ 22 S Five Axis offers 1,220 mm (48 in) of X and is the one with an HSK-A100 version; the FZ 19S Five Axis rows list HSK-A63 only.
Tool diameter is 84 mm (3.31 in), or 160 mm (6.3 in) with the adjacent places empty. Maximum tool length is 450 mm (17.7 in) and maximum tool weight 10.0 kg (22 lb). Chip-to-chip time with the chain magazine is 2.2 sec.
Linear direct drives on X, Y and Z and direct drives on the A and C axes, with water cooling on all axes and the spindle. Rapid traverse is 75 m/min (2,953 ipm) per axis and acceleration is 10 m/s² on X and Y and 17 m/s² on Z. The control is the Siemens SINUMERIK 840D sl.
