DMG offers the Deckel Maho DMU 60FD Duoblock

DMG's Deckel Maho DMU 60FD Duoblock has a five-face capability for machining parts within a working envelope of 600mm in X, 700mm in Y and 600mm in Z.

The Duoblock's rigid structure combines horizontal and vertical turning operations through the HSK-A63 automatically swivelling five-axis milling head with the turning tool rigidity locked in a form-fit crown gear.

The rotary table is driven by a 37kW motor when turning and can sustain a 600kg load.

It has traverse rates of 60m/min in each axis and ample tool storage from a 40 pocket magazine.

It has a chip-to-chip change time of less than 4.5s.

Tool storage can be optionally increased to 60, 120 or 180 units with a vertical chain magazine and horizontal changing mechanism.

Spindle options are 12,000, 18,000 and 24,000 rev/min.

The mid-range unit incorporates condition-monitoring spindle diagnosis to improve service life.

This includes bearing supervision and the ability to recognise any unbalance during run-up to cutting speed.

The Duoblock design configuration has two thermo-symmetric heavy iron castings mounted on top of each other to form a column.

This structure reduces the moving mass of the machine by 50 per cent.

Three guideways are used for the X-axis, giving a constant level of support with maximum rigidity over the entire stroke of the Z-axis.

Control is via DMG Ergoline with 19in flat screen and options of Siemens 840D solutionline or Heidenhain MillplussIT.

DMG Softkeys allows customisation of frequency, used operational sequences and screen selections.

DMG Smartkey enables individualised authorisation of the operator and advanced operation security.

The Duoblock has large safety glass panels and total access to the machining zone through two slide-aside panels set at 90deg to each other.

The standard package has a 600 litre coolant tank with paper band filtration and chip conveyor and 40 bar through the spindle coolant supply.

A pallet change version designated DMC60 FD Duoblock is also available.
