DN Solutions DBC-130 vs Juaristi MX
DN Solutions vs Juaristi · CNC Boring Machines
Summary
The DN Solutions DBC-130 and the Juaristi MX are both horizontal boring machines, but they serve different jobs. The DBC-130 is a fixed-size machine with 3,000 x 2,000 x 1,600 mm of travel. The Juaristi MX is configurable, with X travel from 4,000 - 10,000+ mm (157.5 - 393.7+ in), 2,500 mm (98.4 in) of Y and 2,000 mm (78.7 in) of Z.
The MX also offers more spindle power, 45 - 60 kW (60 - 80 hp) against 45 kW (60 hp), with ISO 50 or Capto C8 tooling and Heidenhain TNC 640 or Siemens 840D SL control. The DBC-130 spins faster, 3,000 rpm against 2,500 rpm, runs a Fanuc 31i-B, and at 43,000 kg (94,800 lb) weighs less than the MX's 50,000 - 80,000 kg.

Advantages
DN Solutions DBC-130
- 3,000 rpm spindle against 2,500 rpm
- Lighter machine at 43,000 kg (94,800 lb) against 50,000 - 80,000 kg
- Fanuc 31i-B control and BIG PLUS CAT 50 taper for Fanuc-based shops
Juaristi MX
- X travel configurable from 4,000 to 10,000+ mm against a fixed 3,000 mm
- 2,500 mm Y and 2,000 mm Z travel against 2,000 mm and 1,600 mm
- 45 - 60 kW (60 - 80 hp) spindle power against 45 kW (60 hp)
- Choice of Heidenhain TNC 640 or Siemens 840D SL control
Verdict
Choose by part length. The Juaristi MX is for the very large work its configurable bed allows: turbine casings, marine engine blocks, nacelle frames and mining truck frames that need more than 3,000 mm of X travel and up to 60 kW. The DN Solutions DBC-130 is for heavy castings, weldments and housings that fit within 3,000 x 2,000 x 1,600 mm, on a Fanuc-controlled machine with a 3,000 rpm spindle.
