Overview

The DMG MORI DMC 125 u FD duoBLOCK is a 5-axis mill-turn machine with a square working plane: 1,250 mm (49.2 in) in X, 1,250 mm (49.2 in) in Y and a maximum workpiece diameter of 1,250 mm (49.2 in). Z travel is 1,000 mm (39.4 in), and its DirectDrive table turns at up to 500 rpm.

Diameter is what this size adds. The DMC 100 u FD duoBLOCK has the same Y, Z, height limit and 2,000 kg (4,409.2 lb) weight limit on 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of X and diameter. Since the weight limit does not rise with the diameter, the DMC 125 suits parts that are wide but not massive: large rings, thin-walled casings, fabricated frames. A solid steel part filling the envelope would go past 2,000 kg (4,409.2 lb) long before it reached 1,600 mm (63 in) of height.

Turning at up to 500 rpm on the DirectDrive table lets a part be turned, milled and, with the integrated grinding technology DMG MORI lists, ground in one clamping. On a 1,250 mm (49.2 in) part the surface speed at the rim is high even at modest table speed, so the limit in practice is usually balance and clamping, not rpm. The Highlights state no table torque.

For milling, the powerMASTER motorspindle offers 737.6 ft lb and 103.3 hp and the 5X torqueMASTER 1,327.6 ft lb and 69.7 hp. A rotating pallet changer is standard, the wheel magazine is quoted with 453 tool pockets and a tool replenishment time of max. 5.6 sec, and the feed drive is completely water-cooled with a spindle growth sensor (SGS). Stated machine availability is 95 %.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

X travel, Y travel and maximum workpiece diameter are all 1,250 mm (49.2 in)
Milling and turning in one setup on a DirectDrive table at up to 500 rpm
Integrated grinding technology is listed for surface quality
5X torqueMASTER with 1,327.6 ft lb and 69.7 hp, or powerMASTER motorspindle with 737.6 ft lb and 103.3 hp
Rotating pallet changer as standard
453 tool pockets in the wheel magazine, with tool replenishment in max. 5.6 sec

Limitations

Workpiece weight stays at 2,000 kg (4,409.2 lb), the same as the DMC 100 u FD duoBLOCK, despite the larger diameter
Table speed tops out at 500 rpm and no table torque is stated
No maximum speed is given for the powerMASTER or the 5X torqueMASTER
Workpieces can be 1,600 mm (63 in) tall but Z travel is 1,000 mm (39.4 in)

Best For

Large rings and casings up to 1,250 mm (49.2 in) in diameter Wide, relatively light parts within 2,000 kg (4,409.2 lb) Turning, milling and grinding of one part in a single clamping Heavy milling cuts with the 1,327.6 ft lb 5X torqueMASTER

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What is the turning speed of the DMC 125 u FD duoBLOCK?

The DirectDrive table reaches rotational speeds up to 500 rpm for milling and turning in one setup. DMG MORI does not state a table torque in the Highlights. With parts up to 1,250 mm (49.2 in) in diameter and 2,000 kg (4,409.2 lb), the usable speed will depend on how well the part and fixture are balanced.

02 What is the difference between the DMC 125 u FD duoBLOCK and the DMC 160 u FD duoBLOCK?

The DMC 160 u FD duoBLOCK is larger in plan and much stronger in load: 1,600 × 1,600 × 1,100 mm (63 × 63 × 43.3 in) of travel and 4,000 kg (8,818.5 lb), against 1,250 × 1,250 × 1,000 mm (49.2 × 49.2 × 39.4 in) and 2,000 kg (4,409.2 lb). It is lower, though: the DMC 160 u FD duoBLOCK takes parts up to 1,350 mm (53.1 in) tall, the DMC 125 u FD duoBLOCK up to 1,600 mm (63 in).

03 Which milling spindles are listed?

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 second gives 80% more torque for large cutters at low speed, the first more power for fast stock removal. Speed ranges are missing from the Highlights and should be requested.

04 Can the machine grind?

DMG MORI lists grinding as an integrated technology for this model, with surface quality as the stated benefit. Combined with turning on the DirectDrive table and 5-axis milling, a part can stay in one clamping from roughing to finished surface. The Highlights do not detail the grinding equipment.

05 How big can the workpiece be?

1,250 mm (49.2 in) in diameter, 1,600 mm (63 in) in height and 2,000 kg (4,409.2 lb). Linear travels are 1,250 mm (49.2 in) in X and Y and 1,000 mm (39.4 in) in Z. Because the height limit is above the Z travel, the top and bottom of a tall part may need different tool lengths or a second look at reach.
