How much does the Chiron DZ 25P cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a 5-axis machining center in this class — not a quote from Chiron. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Chiron DZ 25P is a twin-spindle machining center with 800 mm between its spindles and a 60-tool chain magazine for each of them. Travels are 800 mm in X, 1,100 mm in Y and 800 mm in Z.
Tooling is a good place to start with this model, because the magazine is fixed where the travel is generous. Chiron lists one configuration, 2 x 60. The DZ 22W Five Axis, by contrast, can be had with 2 x 42, 2 x 64 or 2 x 98 tools, and the DZ 18W holds 2 x 35 tools. Sixty per spindle covers most single-part processes. A shop planning to run several part families from one magazine should count its tools first, sister tools included.
What each pocket will accept is generous. Tool diameter is 78 mm, or 160 mm if the adjacent pockets are kept empty. Length goes to 450 mm, more than half of the Z travel, and weight to 10.0 kg. The taper is HSK-A63. A change takes 2.9 s chip to chip, which matters little on long cuts in large parts and more on drilling patterns with a new tool every few seconds.
The spindles are listed at 12,500 or 17,500 rpm with 86 to 208 Nm of torque. X rapids at 90 m/min and Y and Z at 75 m/min; acceleration is 10 m/s² in X and Y and 15 m/s² in Z. The DZ 25 P Five Axis page lists identical figures, and no row on either page describes rotary axes, table load or workpiece size.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 60-tool chain magazine per spindle (2 x 60)
- Pockets accept tools up to 450 mm long and 10.0 kg
- 160 mm tool diameter is possible with adjacent pockets empty
- 800 mm, 1,100 mm and 800 mm of travel with spindles 800 mm apart
- HSK-A63 spindles with 86 to 208 Nm, at 12,500 or 17,500 rpm
Limitations
- Magazine size is fixed at 2 x 60; the DZ 22W Five Axis goes to 2 x 98 tools
- With every pocket full, tool diameter is held to 78 mm
- 2.9 s chip to chip is a long change for processes built from many short operations
- The table has no rows for rotary axes, table load, spindle power or machine weight

Frequently Asked Questions
01
2 x 60 in a chain magazine. That is the only capacity Chiron lists for this model. For comparison, the DZ 22W Five Axis is listed with 2 x 42, 2 x 64 or 2 x 98 tools and the DZ 18W with 2 x 35 tools.
02
Maximum tool diameter is 78 mm with a full magazine and 160 mm with the adjacent pockets empty. Maximum tool length is 450 mm and maximum tool weight is 10.0 kg, on an HSK-A63 taper.
03
2.9 s chip to chip. On large workpieces with long cuts that is a minor part of the cycle. On parts with many drilled and tapped holes it is worth adding up the changes when estimating cycle time.
04
800 mm in X, 1,100 mm in Y and 800 mm in Z, with two spindles 800 mm apart. Spindle speed is 12,500 or 17,500 rpm and torque is listed from 86 to 208 Nm. Rapids are 90 m/min in X and 75 m/min in Y and Z.
05
The listed figures are identical: the DZ 25 P Five Axis shows 800 mm, 1,100 mm and 800 mm of travel, 12,500 | 17,500 rpm, 86 to 208 Nm, HSK-A63 and 2 x 60 tools, the same as the DZ 25P. Neither table has rotary-axis rows, so the data here cannot tell the two apart.
