The open house offers valuable information for future-proof manufacturing processes.
The FZ 19 S 5-axis combines key requirements from aerospace and other industries in a single-spindle machining center.
This year, the partner exhibition took place right next to the machine solutions.
The 2025 CHIRON Group open house in Tuttlingen, Germany, featured a world premiere in micromachining, as well as 12 live machining centers, smart automation solutions for greater efficiency, direct exchanges with experts and 35 partner companies.
The new micro machine is designed for high-speed machining of larger complex components up to 120 mm workpiece cubature. With the Micro5 XL, the CHIRON Group is making the advantages of the Micro5 available for an extended range of applications, for medical and precision technology as well as other demanding industries. CTO Dr. Claus Eppler, Product Manager Michael Wurster and Matthias Rapp presented the development key features and outstanding characteristics.
In addition to the new micromachining center, the CHIRON Group presented its machine solutions with live demonstrations. The combination of an FZ 12 S 5-axis with the compact Variocell MOVE robot cell demonstrated what intelligent workpiece handling can look like. On the MT 715 two+, the focus was on the integration of gear cutting technologies for precise and efficient complete machining in one machine. Designed to meet the need for aerospace quality in serial production on a single-spindle machining center, the FZ 19 S 5-axis demonstrated was machining struts for a landing gear assembly made of grade 5 titanium.
The themes on digital solutions, refurbishment and services were also popular. The team, led by Frank Geiselhart, Senior Vice President Global Service, provided information on maintenance contracts for consistently high machine availability, repair packages for plug-in and motor spindles and PerformanceFinance. The combination of machine financing, data-based condition monitoring and full service opens new opportunities for companies to help ensure maximum technical and financial security in their production.
The 2026 open house will again be held in spring, the exact date will be announced.
