Overview

The DMG MORI DMC 80 u FD duoBLOCK mills and turns in one setup: its DirectDrive table reaches rotational speeds up to 800 rpm, and DMG MORI lists grinding as a further integrated technology. Linear travels are 800 × 1,050 × 850 mm (31.5 × 41.3 × 33.5 in).

For turned work the envelope reads like that of a vertical lathe. The part may be 900 mm (35.4 in) in diameter, 1,450 mm (57.1 in) tall and 1,400 kg (3,086.5 lb). The table speed that can actually be used depends on the mass and balance of the part and its fixture, and a large unbalanced casting will run well below the maximum. The Highlights state the speed but no table torque, which is the figure to request for heavy turning cuts.

A rotating pallet changer is standard, so the next part can be clamped and trued while the previous one is in the cut. That matters more on a mill-turn machine than on a mill. Centring a heavy part for turning takes time, and here it happens outside the work area.

For milling there are two named spindles. The powerMASTER motorspindle delivers 737.6 ft lb and 103.3 hp, the 5X torqueMASTER 958.8 ft lb and 49.6 hp. The wheel magazine is quoted with 453 tool pockets and a tool replenishment time of max. 5.6 sec, a useful reserve when turning and milling tools share one magazine.

Accuracy over a long cycle rests on a completely water-cooled feed drive and a spindle growth sensor (SGS). DMG MORI puts machine availability at 95%.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

Milling and turning in one setup with a DirectDrive table at rotational speeds up to 800 rpm
Grinding is listed as an integrated technology for surface quality
Rotating pallet changer as standard, so parts are set up during machining
Takes parts up to 900 mm (35.4 in) in diameter, 1,450 mm (57.1 in) tall and 1,400 kg (3,086.5 lb)
Milling spindles: 5X torqueMASTER with 958.8 ft lb and 49.6 hp, powerMASTER motorspindle with 737.6 ft lb and 103.3 hp
Wheel magazine with 453 tool pockets and tool replenishment in max. 5.6 sec

Limitations

No table torque for turning is given in the Highlights, only the 800 rpm maximum speed
Neither milling spindle is listed with a maximum speed
Workpiece weight of 1,400 kg (3,086.5 lb) includes the chuck or fixture, which is heavy on turning setups
The 900 mm (35.4 in) maximum diameter is wider than the 800 mm (31.5 in) X travel

Best For

Rings, housings and casings turned and milled in one clamping Rotational parts up to 900 mm (35.4 in) in diameter and 1,400 kg (3,086.5 lb) Parts needing ground surfaces without a separate grinding machine Mill-turn production with setup on the pallet changer during machining

Frequently Asked Questions

01 How fast does the table of the DMC 80 u FD duoBLOCK turn?

The DirectDrive table reaches rotational speeds up to 800 rpm, which DMG MORI lists for milling and turning in one setup. The speed that can be used on a given job depends on the weight and balance of the part and fixture. No table torque is stated in the Highlights.

02 What size of part can be turned on it?

Workpieces up to 900 mm (35.4 in) in diameter, 1,450 mm (57.1 in) in height and 1,400 kg (3,086.5 lb). The linear travels are 800 mm (31.5 in) in X, 1,050 mm (41.3 in) in Y and 850 mm (33.5 in) in Z. The height limit is greater than the Z travel, so check tool reach along the full length of a tall part.

03 Does the DMC 80 u FD duoBLOCK grind?

DMG MORI lists grinding as an integrated technology on this machine, with surface quality as its purpose. The Highlights do not describe the wheels, dressing or measuring equipment involved, so those details need to come from the quotation.

04 Which milling spindles are available?

Two are named. The powerMASTER motorspindle has 737.6 ft lb and 103.3 hp, and the 5X torqueMASTER has 958.8 ft lb and 49.6 hp. The torqueMASTER gives 30% more torque, the powerMASTER roughly twice the power. Speed ranges are not listed.

05 What is the difference between the DMC 80 u FD duoBLOCK and the DMC 80 U duoBLOCK?

Both have travels of 800 × 1,050 × 850 mm (31.5 × 41.3 × 33.5 in) and the same workpiece limits. DMG MORI describes the machine as also available in a mill-turn version, in which a DirectDrive table at rotational speeds up to 800 rpm allows milling and turning in one setup. That turning table is the difference to ask about when comparing quotations.
