{"id":"chiron-fz-12","model_id":"FZ 12","name":"Chiron FZ 12","summary":"The Chiron FZ 12 is a compact vertical machining centre from the 12 Series with a single motor milling spindle mounted on a travelling column. Its X-Y-Z travel is 550 x 400 x 400 mm and rapid feed is 75 m/min on all three axes. Milling spindle speed spans 12,000 to 30,000 rpm and the machine takes HSK-A40, HSK-A50 or HSK-A63 tooling from a chain magazine.","study_notes":["Milling spindle speed range is 12,000 – 30,000 rpm; spindle torque range is 11 – 110 Nm.","Chain magazine tool options run from 24 to 128 positions.","Max tool diameter 85 mm, or 125 mm with free secondary space; max tool length 250 mm; max tool weight 5.0 kg.","Chip-to-chip time is 2.7 s.","Axis acceleration is 10 m/s² in X, 15 m/s² in Y and 20 m/s² in Z.","Number of milling spindles: 1.","Machine bed is mineral cast and the column is a vertical travelling column.","The 12 Series page also names FZ 12 S (five-axis) and FZ 12 W (with workpiece changer) variants; no separate technical data for those is given in this document."],"safety_notes":["The working area is fully enclosed with stainless steel covers."],"sources":[{"url":"https://chiron-group.com/products/12-series","title":"Series 12 compact footprint with loads to offer","accessed":"2026-10-26"},{"url":"https://chiron-group.com/storage/technicaldata/en/cg_a4h_machinedata_website_2026_br12.pdf","title":"cg a4h machinedata website 2026 br12","accessed":"2026-10-26"}],"verification":{"status":"source_checked","checked_at":"2026-10-26","values":7,"method":"llm_source_check"},"updated_at":"2026-10-26","type":"hardware","spec":{"category":"cnc_mill","manufacturer":"chiron","controllers":[],"travel_x_mm":550,"travel_y_mm":400,"travel_z_mm":400,"spindle_max_rpm":30000,"spindle_taper":"HSK-A40, HSK-A50, HSK-A63","rapid_traverse_m_min":75,"joints":[],"protocols":[],"standards":[],"error_codes":[]},"url":"https://machineschema.com/hardware/chiron-fz-12","license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/"}
