DMG Mori: DUE, TRE, QUATTRO – production turning newly defined
As the latest series in DMG MORI’s production turning portfolio, the NZ platform sets new standards in modularity, flexibility, and productivity for individual customer requirements on a footprint of just 17.8 m².
- Two machine bed sizes: short version for workpieces up to 740 mm, long version for workpieces up to 1,290 mm
- Highly flexible with up to four machining units for turrets:
- 80 mm Y-axis on each position
- -10° to +100° B-axis possible on all four positions
- TWIN spindle as steady rest, Swiss-type functionality, or both side turning
- Can be automated with an integrated workpiece unloader, bar loader, or one or two gantry loaders, the robot in the work area, Robo2Go or MATRIS
Available in two-bed sizes, the new NZ platform serves a wide range of components. The short version is designed for workpieces up to 740 mm in length, while the long version accommodates components up to 1,290 mm. Chuck machining is possible in both cases up to a diameter of ø 120 mm, and for bar machining, the passage is ø 65 mm. Including the 3.30 m long bar feeder, the NZ requires only 17.8 m² of floor space. Stability and precision in machining are ensured by the symmetrical architecture bed with high thermal stability and equal chip removal performance in all positions. On the control side, the NZ platform is equipped with a 19″ DMG MORI SLIMline touch panel and FANUC 30iB.
Maximum modularity with up to four milling units
The highlight of the NZ platform is the individual equipment options, allowing each user to define a manufacturing solution tailored to their exact requirements. Due to the modular machine concept, the NZ platform includes the NZ DUE, NZ TRE, and NZ QUATTRO. This means that two, three, or four milling units can be installed in the workspace. Each of these units can be freely positioned and has a Y-axis with 80 mm travel and a B-axis with a swivel range of -10° to +100°. There is also the option of a TWIN spindle in the Z-axis with a diameter of ø 65 mm. It serves as a hydraulic steady rest and offers a Swiss-type function with up to 5,000 min-1 speed in the guide bush. Furthermore, the TWIN spindle can be used for turning at 4,000 min-1 and 60 Nm.
Even more productive with automation solutions
DMG MORI offers a range of automation solutions so that users can also secure their competitiveness in the long term with the NZ platform. An integrated workpiece unloading unit and a bar loader is just as much part of the portfolio as autonomous production via one to two gantry loaders or a robot in the workspace. In addition, the NZ platform is available with the Robo2Go or MATRIS.
