USED 2008 CHIRON FS 12S MAGNUM

2008 Chiron FZ-12S Magnum High-Speed VMCUltra-Fast 2.0s Chip-to-Chip | Magnum Torque Package | Fanuc 21i-MB"Maximum Throughput in a Minimal Footprint – The Ultimate Production Machine"Available for immediate acquisition is this 2008 Chiron FZ-12S Magnum (S/N 73110101). Chiron is world-renowned for building the fastest vertical machining centers in the industry, and the Magnum series is the "heavy hitter" of the lineup. It combines Chiron's legendary speed with an upgraded 12 kW spindle motor, providing the high-torque grunt needed for aggressive milling that standard high-speed machines can’t handle.Built on a Traveling Column architecture, this machine ensures that axis acceleration and precision remain constant regardless of the part weight on the table. If your shop is focused on high-volume aluminum, medical components, or aerospace parts, this machine is engineered to slash your cycle times.Technical SpecificationsYear of Manufacture: 2008Serial Number: 73110101CNC Control: Fanuc 21i-MB (Industry Standard)X-Axis Travel: 21.6" (550mm)Y-Axis Travel: 11.8" (300mm)Z-Axis Travel: 16.7" (425mm)Spindle Speed: 10,500 RPMSpindle Taper: CAT 40Spindle Motor: 12 kW (16 HP Continuous / 25 HP Peak)Tool Changer: 12-Position "Basket" StyleChip-to-Chip Time: ~2.0 to 2.8 SecondsRapid Traverse Rate: 1,181 IPM (30,000 mm/min)Table Size: 37.4" x 26.0" (950mm x 660mm)Max Table Load: 1,100 lbsMachine Weight: Approx. 8,800 lbsKey Features & Performance AdvantagesMagnum Power Package: Features a high-torque spindle motor and reinforced headstock. This allows for efficient metal removal in tougher alloys like stainless steel and titanium while maintaining high-speed surfacing capabilities.Signature Basket Tool Changer: The tool magazine is mounted directly to the spindle assembly. By eliminating the need for a separate tool-change arm, the FZ-12S achieves the fastest mechanical tool changes in its class.Traveling Column Design: Unlike traditional C-frame machines where the table moves in X and Y, the Chiron column moves while the table remains stationary. This results in superior surface finishes and consistent accuracy because the machine's dynamics never change as the part weight increases.Fanuc 21i-MB Control: High-reliability control system with excellent look-ahead capabilities for 3D surfacing. Easy to program and fully compatible with modern CAM software and 4th-axis rotary integration.Rigid Tapping: Standard on the Magnum series, allowing for high-speed, high-accuracy threading without the need for tension/compression tap holders.Compact Footprint: Delivers over 21" of X-travel in a narrow-width chassis, ideal for high-density production cells.Dealer Note: "The Chiron FZ-12S Magnum is the machine you buy when cycle time is your biggest competitor. Serial number 73110101 is a clean, 2008-build unit featuring the desirable Fanuc control. It has been inspected for spindle runout and tool changer indexing accuracy. This machine represents a massive leap in productivity for any shop currently using standard-speed VMCs."
