Turning centre has Y-axis on three turrets
Among eight super high-precision turning centres is a machine with Y-axis on three turrets, while pallet handling and bar-feeders will also be shown including a serv0-driven type.
Wing ribs 5-axis machined two at a time
An advanced machining system with twin 90kW spindles allows the simultaneous 5-axis machining of port and starboard wing ribs - reducing machine down-time.
These include not only a full range of single and twin spindle stand-alone vertical machining centres - including five-axis versions - but also integrated and automated manufacturing cells.
The Chiron DZ 12K W Flexcell Duo, for example, integrates two twin-spindle DZ 12K W machining centres into a single cell with a material magazine, robot loading and workpiece changing tables for full six-sided machining two parts at a time in one setup.
By combining the world's fastest toolchangers with twin-spindle, multi-axis machining the aim is to slash cycle times yet still offer flexibility.
The emphasis throughout Chiron's exhibits, which mirrors The Engineering Technology Group's own philosophy, is not simply on machines, but on engineered solutions to customers' needs.
The applications on show at EMO cover components as diverse as surgical instruments, aluminium alloy wing sections, cast-iron flywheels and Perspex and steel distributor components.
