Fully Automated, Six-Sided Multifunction Machining

Recently, CHIRON GROUP demonstrated its new 715 Series machining center, designed for complete machining of all six sides of complex parts. In terms of its applications, the machine is slotted between the vertical Chiron FZ 08 S mill/turn precision+ machining center and the Stama MT 733 machining center and incorporates part-handling automation and storage functions. Matthias Efinger, Chiron systems engineer R&D, said, the design goal was “to create a machining center designed for autonomous processing on all six sides, rounding off the Chiron Group bar-machining portfolio and fully bridging the gap between the FZ 08 S mill/turn precision+ and MT 733.”
