Overview

The DMG MORI DMC 100 u FD duoBLOCK moves 1,000 mm (39.4 in) in X, 1,250 mm (49.2 in) in Y and 1,000 mm (39.4 in) in Z, and takes workpieces up to 1,000 mm (39.4 in) in diameter, 1,600 mm (63 in) tall and 2,000 kg (4,409.2 lb). A rotating pallet changer is standard.

This is the size at which the family gets noticeably heavier. The DMC 90 u duoBLOCK, one size down, carries 1,400 kg (3,086.5 lb) with 850 mm (33.5 in) of Z travel. Here the extra Z and the 1,600 mm (63 in) height limit open the machine to tall housings and welded structures, and 2,000 kg (4,409.2 lb) leaves room for the fixture underneath them.

Spindle choice is between power and torque. The powerMASTER motorspindle is listed with 737.6 ft lb and 103.3 hp. The 5X torqueMASTER is listed with 1,327.6 ft lb and 69.7 hp, 80% more torque for about a third less power. For face mills and large drills in steel or cast iron the torqueMASTER is the natural pick. For high removal rates with smaller tools it is the powerMASTER. A roughing package adds up to 50 % higher cutting power. The Highlights give no spindle speeds.

Tooling is held in a wheel magazine quoted with 453 tool pockets and a tool replenishment time of max. 5.6 sec. For thermal stability the feed drive is completely water-cooled and a spindle growth sensor (SGS) compensates for spindle growth, and DMG MORI states machine availability of 95 %. Although the model carries FD in its name, the Highlights for it state no table speed or torque for turning. Get those figures in writing if turning is part of the plan.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

Workpieces up to 1,600 mm (63 in) tall and 2,000 kg (4,409.2 lb)
5X torqueMASTER with 1,327.6 ft lb and 69.7 hp for heavy, low-speed cutting
powerMASTER motorspindle with 737.6 ft lb and 103.3 hp
Rotating pallet changer as standard
Wheel magazine with 453 tool pockets and a tool replenishment time of max. 5.6 sec
Completely water-cooled feed drive with spindle growth sensor (SGS)

Limitations

The Highlights for this model give no table speed or table torque for turning
No maximum speed is listed for either spindle
The 5X torqueMASTER has 69.7 hp against the powerMASTER's 103.3 hp, so high torque comes with lower power
Up to 50 % higher cutting power is tied to the roughing package
Z travel of 1,000 mm (39.4 in) is shorter than the 1,600 mm (63 in) maximum workpiece height

Best For

Tall housings and structures up to 1,600 mm (63 in) and 2,000 kg (4,409.2 lb) Heavy milling in steel and cast iron with the 1,327.6 ft lb 5X torqueMASTER High-power roughing with the 103.3 hp powerMASTER and the roughing package Pallet-changed production with a large tool inventory

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What are the spindle options on the DMC 100 u FD duoBLOCK?

Two spindles are named: a powerMASTER motorspindle with 737.6 ft lb and 103.3 hp, and a 5X torqueMASTER with 1,327.6 ft lb and 69.7 hp. The torqueMASTER has 80% more torque and the powerMASTER has 48% more power. DMG MORI also lists a roughing package with up to 50 % higher cutting power. Speeds are not stated.

02 How large a workpiece does it take?

Up to 1,000 mm (39.4 in) in diameter, 1,600 mm (63 in) in height and 2,000 kg (4,409.2 lb). Travels are 1,000 mm (39.4 in) in X, 1,250 mm (49.2 in) in Y and 1,000 mm (39.4 in) in Z. X travel equals the maximum diameter, while the height limit is well above the Z travel, so check reach at the top of a tall part.

03 How does it compare with the DMC 125 u FD duoBLOCK?

The DMC 125 u FD duoBLOCK has 1,250 mm (49.2 in) of X travel and takes a 1,250 mm (49.2 in) diameter, against 1,000 mm (39.4 in) for both on the DMC 100 u FD duoBLOCK. Y travel of 1,250 mm (49.2 in), Z travel of 1,000 mm (39.4 in), the 1,600 mm (63 in) height limit and the 2,000 kg (4,409.2 lb) weight limit are the same on the two machines.

04 How many tools can the magazine hold?

The Highlights describe a compact wheel magazine with 453 tool pockets and a tool replenishment time of max. 5.6 sec. They do not say what the standard magazine holds, so the pocket count belongs on the list of items to confirm in the quotation.

05 Can the DMC 100 u FD duoBLOCK turn?

The model name includes FD, but the Highlights DMG MORI publishes for it cover the spindles, a roughing package, the pallet changer and the wheel magazine and say nothing about turning. No table speed or table torque is stated. Ask DMG MORI for the turning data before quoting mill-turn parts on this machine.
