Our best estimate for the Chiron Micro5 is $250,000 - $350,000. 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-micro5#price; the request is passed to Chiron or an authorised dealer.
The travels are 78 mm in X, 56 mm in Y and 50 mm in Z, so the part, its fixture and the tool stick-out all have to fit inside that space. The sheet rows shown here give no table size or load. For larger work the Micro5 XL lists 170 mm, 140 mm and 120 mm.
A single spindle with a maximum speed of 60,000 rpm, a listed torque of 10,5 Ncm and an HSK-EZ15 tool interface. The combination is meant for micro tools: very high speed, very little torque. No power rating appears in the rows.
The tower magazine holds 60 tools. Maximum tool diameter is 18 mm, or 40 mm when the adjacent places are left empty. Chip-to-chip time is 3.5 s. The rows give no maximum tool length or weight, which should be confirmed for the longest tool in the process.
Size and spindle. The Micro5 XL has travels of 170 × 140 × 120 mm, an HSK-E25 spindle at 40,000 or 50,000 rpm with 1.8 Nm, and a magazine of 60 or 100 tools. The Micro5 has 78 × 56 × 50 mm, HSK-EZ15, 60,000 rpm and 60 tools.
Rapid traverse is 30 m/min and acceleration 25 m/s² on X, Y and Z. Over a 78 mm stroke an axis spends most of a move speeding up and slowing down, so the acceleration figure tells more about cycle time on this machine than the rapid rate does.
