Overview
The DMG Mori DMF 200|8 FD is the mill-turn variant of the DMF 200|8 traveling-column machining center, adding a DirectDrive rotary table for turning operations to the proven long-part 5-axis platform. With 2,000 mm (78.7 in) of X-axis travel, 800 mm (31.5 in) on Y, and 850 mm (33.5 in) on Z, this machine handles workpieces up to 2,300 mm (90.6 in) long and weighing up to 2,000 kg (4,409 lb) — with the added capability to turn cylindrical features without moving the part to a lathe.
The traveling-column design moves the spindle along the X-axis while the workpiece stays stationary on the table. This means the full 2,000 kg table load is available at any X-axis position, regardless of how far the spindle extends. Maximum workpiece dimensions accommodate parts 2,300 mm long, 850 mm (33.5 in) wide, and 900 mm (35.4 in) tall, with a maximum turning diameter of 1,050 mm (41.3 in).
The FD option transforms the DMF 200|8 from a pure milling platform into a complete machining solution for long rotational parts. Turbine shafts, long hydraulic cylinders, large threaded components, and aerospace actuator housings that previously required separate milling and turning operations can now be fully machined in a single setup. The DirectDrive table provides the torque and speed needed for facing, boring, and cylindrical turning operations.
Spindle options range from 15,000 to 20,000 RPM with up to 200 Nm of torque. The tool magazine holds up to 120 pockets with maximum 400 mm tool length. Linear motor drive options are available for the X-axis for enhanced dynamic performance on long contouring passes.
Control options include Siemens Sinumerik ONE and Heidenhain TNC7 under CELOS X, with integrated mill-turn programming cycles for seamless transition between milling and turning modes. The DMF 200|8 FD fills a unique niche: long-part 5-axis mill-turn in a traveling-column format that no other machine platform can match. Specs sourced from DMG Mori published data.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- FD mill-turn option enables complete machining of long rotational parts without transferring to a separate lathe
- 2,000 mm X-axis travel handles long parts that conventional trunnion-table 5-axis machines cannot accommodate
- Traveling-column design maintains full 2,000 kg table load regardless of X-axis position
- Up to 120-tool magazine supports complex multi-operation mill-turn jobs on large workpieces
- Linear motor option on X-axis delivers dynamic performance for high-speed contouring on long parts
- Compact footprint relative to X-axis travel compared to equivalent gantry machines
Limitations
- FD option adds $50,000-$70,000 over the standard DMF 200|8, requiring regular mill-turn work to justify
- 800 mm Y-axis travel can be limiting for wider workpieces compared to the DMF |11 series
- 200 Nm maximum spindle torque is lower than duoBLOCK models, limiting heavy roughing capability
- Long-part fixturing with turning operations requires careful balancing for safe operation at speed

Frequently Asked Questions
01
New DMF 200|8 FD machines price between $550,000 and $800,000 depending on spindle, control, and linear motor configuration. The FD mill-turn option adds roughly $50,000-$70,000 over the standard DMF 200|8.
02
The FD adds a DirectDrive rotary table for turning operations, enabling facing, boring, and cylindrical turning on the same machine that performs 5-axis milling. This is particularly valuable for long parts like turbine shafts and hydraulic cylinders that need both milled and turned features.
03
Choose the DMF 200|8 FD for parts up to 2,300 mm long and 2,000 kg. Step up to the DMF 300|8 FD when parts exceed 2,300 mm or 2,000 kg, as the 300|8 handles parts up to 3,300 mm long and 3,000 kg.
04
Yes. The traveling-column design and machine rigidity handle interrupted cuts during turning. However, fixturing must be carefully planned for long parts under turning loads, and workpiece balance becomes critical at higher RPMs.
