Advantages
DN Solutions DNX 2100
- Turns parts up to 1,100 mm (43 in) long against 520 mm (20 in)
- 520 mm (21 in) maximum turning diameter against 406 mm (16 in)
- B-axis for angled holes and faces on shafts in one setup
DN Solutions Puma 2100SY II
- 22 kW (29 hp) spindle against 18.5/15 kW (25/20 hp)
- 358 N·m (264 ft-lb) of torque against 326 N-m (240 ft-lb)
- Smaller footprint: 3,190 × 1,945 × 2,163 mm against 4,615 × 2,285 × 2,630 mm
Verdict
Part length decides this one. The DN Solutions DNX 2100 is the machine for shafts and long parts up to 1,100 mm and diameters up to 520 mm that need angled features cut in one setup. The DN Solutions Puma 2100SY II suits shorter chucking parts up to 520 mm long, gives more spindle power and torque, and fits shops that are short on floor space.
