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.
The main reason for our high expectations of this series is due to the success of the previous sister machines, the DMC 635 V and the DMC 1035 V, which have established themselves as the best selling machines in the DMG product line.
Most of all, the DMC 835 V offers a bundle of impressive high-tech features, which are unique in this compact class of vertical milling machines.
Beginning with an 8,000 rev/min.

spindle and a 20-tool magazine with double gripper, for short chip-to-chip times and high rapid traverse speeds.
Also included is a top-of-the-line 3D-control for optimised programming - providing the fastest way to get to a finished workpiece.
Also, the machines of this series feature long axis travels, combined with low space requirements and top performance, all at an affordable price.
The newly developed machines of the DMC 35 V Series, especially the EMO 2005 world premiere 835 V, represent an unbeatable performance package in the sector of compact vertical machining centers.
The machines constitute the perfect manufacturing alternative for milling applications in flexible single-workpiece machining and small to medium series production, as well as for training and development.
The machine design of the DMC 635/835/1035 V machines are based on a simple yet effective formula for success: low investment cost with a high production output.
The increased output is achieved with spindle speeds of 8,000 rev/min (optional 12,000 rrev/min), a main spindle with direct drive, fast rapid traverse speeds of up to 30m/min., and a 20 pocket tool magazine with double gripper for a tool exchange times of only 1.6s.
In its construction, Deckel Maho bases the compact DMC 35 V Series on a stable C-frame design (in grey cast iron), which maintains the maximum rigidity requirements to deliver the highest milling precision.
In addition, it ensures increased stability and precision with roller guide-ways on all axes.
The proven 3-point support simplifies installation and reduces setup time.
The CNC - with a choice of Siemens, Heidenhain or Fanuc - are easy to use, contain fast processors, a 15in TFT-screen and supporting 3D software, helping you to arrive at the finished workpiece in the fastest possible time.
All CNC alternatives are perfectly integrated into the performance spectrum of the DMC 35 V Series.
The innovative DMG Powertools are available to expand the capabilities of your machine, and give you even greater precision, productivity and process safety.
Last but not least, fast and direct integration into higher-level networks is made easy with serial and an Ethernet ports.
The portfolio of the new DMC 35 V Series is finally complete, with a number of individual options.
A 'job package' is available that includes chip conveyor, rinsing pistol and coolant/air switch that increase process safety and reduce maintenance.
For even greater performance and precision, DMG offers an 'extended version' with a 12,000 rev/min.
