5-Axis with HSK-A 100 Interface



"The demanding machining applications in the 5-axis world, where components are machined from a solid block, require machining centers that combine optimum milling performance with maximum precision. This is where the new FZ 16 S 5-axis by CHIRON with HSK-A 100 interface comes in," said a company spokesperson.

The spokesperson continued, "To efficiently manufacture demanding components requires a fast, very precise and extremely dynamic machining center. This is because the special workpieces have to be perfect in all respects. With the FZ 16 S 5-axis, CHIRON Group offers a machining center that is designed precisely for this purpose."

The CHIRON FZ 16 S 5-axis is now also available with the HSK-A 100 interface for a high milling performance when rough machining and maximum precision when finishing. With a powerful main spindle with a torque of 295 ft.-lbs., the new machine variant is suited for machining difficult components made even from high temperature-resistant materials, such as titanium or nickel-based alloys.

Together with the moving gantry design, which provides high static and dynamic rigidity, the HSK-A 100 interface provides the foundation for particularly high machining rates and also allows users to machine deep cavities. "While the powerful drives of the FZ 16 S 5-axis provide the required dynamics, the robust basic design and high thermal stability ensure maximum precision," said the spokesperson.

Specifications:

  • Spindle speed: 10,000/30,000 RPM
  • Spindle torque: Up to 295 ft.-lbs.
  • Spindle power: Up to 107 HP
  • Number of tools: Max. 52 pieces
  • Tool holder: HSK-A 100.
