DMG MORI to present seven world premieres

DMG MORI will be confirming its status as a world market leader in the field of metalcutting machine tools with seven world premieres as well as a representative cross-section of its high-tech portfolio at EMO Milan. The event will provide DMG MORI with the perfect showcase for new advanced technologies and innovative products on its stand in Hall 4.

In the field of turning technology, there are four world firsts: the SPRINT 32|5 production turning machine (including the equally new extension stage to SPRINT 32|8) built in Italy, the second generation of the CTX gamma TC turning & milling machines in two sizes and the NLX 6000|2000 turning/milling centre for large components. The three milling innovations all originate this time from the 4th generation of the duoBLOCK® series.

Other highlights of DMG MORI’s trade fair presentation are the introduction of automatic lathes from DMG MORI WASINO, that have been strengthening the DMG MORI product range since 1 April 2015.

Thanks to two Italian production sites, EMO in Milan will be something of a home match for DMG MORI. Since 1969, GILDEMEISTER Italiana S.p.A. from Bergamo has been synonymous with high performance lathe technology and within the Group has a special focus on production and automatic lathe machines.

Now that its site has been modernised and extended last year, DMG MORI will be setting new standards in the manufacture of machine tools. A new 1,200 m2 assembly hall has been created, accompanied by a 1,000 m2 technology centre, in which customised solutions and innovative high-tech machines are developed and can be presented to customers under production conditions.

The SPRINT 32|5 and its upgrade SPRINT 32|8 are made in Italy, as well as the NLX 2500SY|700 and CTX alpha 500 universal turning machines, the CTX beta 1250 TC turning & milling machining centre, the SPRINT 50 production turning machine and the GMC 20 ISM automatic multi-spindle machine.

An extension of the successful SPRINT series for parts with diameters of up to 32 mm, the SPRINT 32|5 is designed for both short and long turning of workpieces of up to ø 32 x 600 mm. With a base area of less than 2.8 m², the new development is an extremely compact production facility. The SPRINT 32|5 machines materials in rod form up to 32 mm in diameter using two spindles and a 2-channel controller.

22 tools on two independent workpiece carriers make it possible to carry out complex machining processes. The automatic lathe also machines demanding workpieces radially at the main spindle with four driven tools. In total the machine is equipped with five linear axes and on C-axis for the main spindle. Other options are the unloading device for workpieces up to 600 mm in length, and the high-pressure coolant supply with 120 bar.

As an upgrade, DMG MORI is presenting the SPRINT 32|8 at EMO as another extension of the SPRINT range. The SPRINT 32|8 is equipped with three independent linear carriers for 4-axis machining on the main spindle and offers space for up to 28 tools. The machine has six linear axes in total including a second Y-axis. Two C-axes are also available, one for the main spindle, one for the counter spindle. In addition to the attainable pluses in performance and flexibility in relation to complex components the ergonomic operation and the durable construction underline the performance of this innovation.

CTX gamma TC 2nd Generation
Complete machining with the new compactMASTER® turning/milling spindle, better performance and a bigger working area are the main features of the new CTX gamma 1250 TC and CTX gamma 2000 TC. The indisputable highlight of the two

2nd generation machines from DMG MORI is the ultra-compact turning/milling spindle. Their compact dimensions translate into a space saving of 70 mm, meaning that 550 mm long workpieces can be horizontally drilled out or hollow turned. The elevation in the X-axis has been increased by 150 mm, thus extending the options for the machining of large workpiece diameters. In addition, the Y-axis now offers 20 mm more travel. The maximum turning length is 1,300 mm in the case of the CTX gamma 1250 TC. The big sister model has a turning length of 2,050 mm. The turning diameter is 700 mm, respectively.

In its development of the compactMASTER turn & mill spindle, DMG MORI has increased the turning torque by 130 percent, meaning that up to 230 Nm is available to users. The spindle operates at speeds of up to 12,000 rpm. The new CTX gamma TC models also have improved dynamics: the feed speeds of 50 m/min in the X, Y and Z directions have been increased by up to 65 percent. With the optional linear drive in the Z-axis, the turning/milling machines achieve up to 60 m/min in fast feed and an acceleration of 1g.

duoBLOCK 4th generation
Strong and precise, the new duoBLOCK 4th generation machining centres excel with their unique rigidity and extremely high precision. Above all, the sophisticated cooling system with comprehensive cooling features on the spindle head, NC round table and in the basic machine guarantees long-term precision even in the standard version. The large modules of the duoBLOCK series also contain numerous options for machine customisation such as the precision package, which includes cooling of the entire feed drive or bed temperature control. Furthermore, the customer can select from the widest range of spindles currently on the market, with torques up to 1600 Nm. In combination with the optional heavy duty machining packages, users get up to 50 percent better milling performance in titanium and Inconel.

The world premieres in the duoBLOCK model series include the DMC 100 U duoBLOCK universal milling machine, the DMC 100 H duoBLOCK and DMC 125 H duoBLOCK horizontal centres. The distance from the spindle to the centre of the table of the two horizontal machining centres has been increased by 200 mm, meaning that now sufficient room is available for long tools up to 900 mm.

NLX 6000|2000
This is a powerful turn & mill machining with torque of up to 12,000 Nm for long parts and large diameters.

With more than 2,300 installed machines the SL series from DMG MORI has written an impressive success story over the last years. The NLX 6000|2000 now opens a new chapter setting new standards in the powerful turn & mill machining of workpieces up to 2,000 mm in length with a diameter of 920 mm, with a chuck diameter of 600 mm. The basis for productive and high-precision machining on the NLX 6000|2000 are the tremendous rigidity of the drive trains, the structure of the machine bed and the flat guides with their high damping characteristics. The outstanding milling performance is guaranteed by the revolver magazine with BMT® technology. The integrated direct drive motor achieves up to 4,000 rpm and a high torque of up to 117 Nm.

The highlight of the NLX 6000|2000 is the application-oriented selection of powerful spindles. The range starts at type B with a spindle diameter of 185 mm. In this case the maximum speed is 1600 rpm, and the torque is up to 7,000 Nm. The range of spindles is rounded off by two spindles, each with impressive torques of up to 12,000 Nm.
