Chiron Group North America at IMTS 2024

America has a long tradition in the machine tool industry. The demand for future-oriented machining solutions drives manufacturers to achieve top performance. At IMTS 2024, the German-based Chiron Group shows its capacity to deliver such solutions with a comprehensive product lineup and a deep understanding of customer needs. The new Micro5 and the established Mill 2000 give proof of performance live on stage.

“From the Chiron Group, customers can expect tailored solutions for small and large parts, with standard automation or as a turnkey solution,” states Simon Knecht, VP of Sales, and Marketing at Chiron America. “Our expertise in process automation and mastering technologies such as double spindle and multitasking machining with milling and turning positions us to deliver the solution that best meets our customers’ requirements.”

Precise and productive – 5-axis machining for large parts
Chiron Group showcases the Mill 2000, the vertical machining center designed for 5-axis machining, combining precision, productivity, and versatility. The swivel spindle reaches speeds up to 30,000rpm with 180Nm of torque. Within the mind and after a successful developing period, Chiron Group now sets a benchmark in micro-machining with the new Micro5.

A footprint of only 10.76ft² and an energy consumption of only 0.5kW are sufficient to machine ultra-precisely complex and high-quality parts for medical devices, watchmaking, jewelry, and highly specialized tiny components. Automated with Feed5 automation system, the modular design of Micro5 can grow step by step from prototyping to large-scale production, delivering high autonomy.

“The Micro5 and the Mill 2000 are two outstanding examples to demonstrate to customers the strength of Chiron’s product range, engineering excellence, and the ability to deliver machines and solutions enabling innovations and competitiveness,” says Knecht.
