Machine Comparison
DMG Mori ALX 2000 vs Okuma 2SP-150H
DMG Mori vs Okuma · CNC Lathes
Summary
The DMG Mori ALX 2000 is a turning center for bar-fed and chuck work. The Okuma 2SP-150H is aimed at high-volume production of small chucked parts machined front and back. The makers publish few comparable figures for this pair, so the table holds a single row.
That row is rapid traverse: the DMG Mori ALX 2000 moves at 30 m/min (1,181.1 ipm) in X and Z, the Okuma 2SP-150H at 24 m/min (945 ipm). Travel, spindle and tooling figures are not available in a form that can be set side by side here.
Specifications Comparison
| Specification | DMG Mori ALX 2000 | Okuma 2SP-150H |
|---|---|---|
| Rapid Traverse | 30 m/min (1,181.1 ipm), X- and Z-axis ▲ | 24 m/min (945 ipm) |
Advantages
DMG Mori ALX 2000
- Faster rapid traverse: 30 m/min (1,181.1 ipm) against 24 m/min (945 ipm)
- Covers bar-fed parts and chuck work, with milling or Y-axis specifications to order
Okuma 2SP-150H
- Aimed at high-volume small chucked parts that need front-and-back machining
- Suits production lines where cycle time on small parts drives cost per piece
Verdict
On the one published row the DMG Mori ALX 2000 is quicker between cuts, at 30 m/min against 24 m/min. That is too little to rank the machines. Pick by job: the DMG Mori ALX 2000 for mixed bar and chuck turning, the Okuma 2SP-150H for volume runs of small chucked parts finished on both sides. Ask both makers for travel and spindle data before deciding.
