Dies milled dry at high speeds
The new DMC 65 V vertical machining centre applies high-speed cutting, dry machining and universal application in die making and series production with high dynamics and precision.
CNC miller-drillers cut 20% off machining times
With the highly productive DMU 50 / 70 eVolution, DMG has added a new dimension to universal milling and drilling machines designed to save up to 20% on machining times.
No other entry-level lathe in this price bracket can match these new models for their quality, reliability and profit potential.
This price includes Fanuc 210i CNC Control with Manual Guide, manual 3 jaw chuck (200mm), 8 station turret and tailstock with life centre.
Examples of the features that are atypical in this class of machine include the pivoting DMG SlimLinePanel with 15in TFT screen feature a top-of-the-range Fanuc or Siemens control with graphical user interface and 3D real-time simulation.
Rotational speeds are up to 4,000 rev/min with up to 24kW of drive power and 720Nm torque.
Not to be found on any other entry-level lathe is the 30 deg inclined four-track bed designed for optimal chip clearance and excellent accessibility.
High flexibility and productivity are assured thanks to a large working area and features such as a traversable steady rest and high-speed, 8-station turret.
As a result chucking components up to 55mm and shaft sections up to 1200mm in length can be machined in the shortest time.
The digital drive on the main spindle and dynamically stable linear guideways make a significant contribution to the high precision and excellent surface quality achievable on the new NEF universal lathes.
Manufacturing flexibility is assured by a traversable tailstock with hydraulic quill.
Other notable features are integrated safety systems and a low space requirement.
This fully enclosed machine series comes in a space green finish; metallic optional.
