Two Exhibitions, a Shared Vision for the Future
AMB 2026
Under the motto „Where Automation Meets Machining Excellence“, we exhibited at the AMB in Stuttgart from September 15 to 19, 2026, demonstrating how machining excellence and intelligent automation can be combined into a high-performance integrated system. Five intense days at the trade show, with approximately 65,000 trade visitors from 76 countries. And right in the middle of it all in Hall 10: the CHIRON Group.
If you weren't able to attend or would like to relive the highlights – our Aftermovie summarizes the days of the trade show.
IMTS Chicago
Across the Atlantic, the focus was also on the integration of machining and automation: At IMTS in Chicago, we presented our solutions for an increasingly automated and connected manufacturing environment. IMTS provided the ideal platform for face-to-face exchanges with customers, partners, and trade visitors from North America and around the world. Numerous discussions, exciting insights, and concrete application examples made the trade show an important gathering place for the future of machining.
Powerful across all disciplines – Our MT 715
The MT 715 is our high-performance CNC milling and turning machining center, designed for maximum efficiency in the production of small-batch and single-part components. Developed for maximum flexibility, it combines bar-fed and chuck-fed machining in a single solution.

PowerSave: Improved Energy Efficiency for New and Existing Machines
Many machines consume unnecessary energy during idle, waiting and break periods. With our PowerSave solution, selected components are automatically switched off when they are not required. This helps reduce energy consumption, improve energy efficiency and make better use of available resources without affecting production processes.
As a retrofit solution, PowerSave can be implemented on both new and existing machines. This enables manufacturers to unlock efficiency potential within their machine park and reduce energy consumption over the long term.
