Overview

The DMG Mori DMF 360 Linear is a high-performance gantry-style vertical machining center engineered for the productive machining of large, complex workpieces. Its traveling-column design and linear drive technology deliver exceptional dynamic performance, combining rapid traverse rates with outstanding positioning accuracy across an extended X-axis travel of 3,600 mm.

Linear motor drives on all primary axes eliminate mechanical transmission components such as ballscrews, reducing maintenance requirements and providing direct force transmission for superior contouring accuracy. The result is a machine well-suited to aerospace structural components, large mold and die work, and energy-sector parts that demand both volumetric precision and high material removal rates.

The DMF 360 Linear accommodates workpieces up to 3,600 × 1,000 mm on the table, with a generous load capacity that supports heavy castings and billets. Spindle options include high-torque motor spindles and optional right-angle heads, enabling five-sided machining of large prismatic parts in a single setup without repositioning.

Integration with DMG Mori's CELOS control ecosystem — running on a Siemens or Heidenhain controller — provides operators with a modern, app-based HMI for process monitoring, tool management, and machine diagnostics. The DMF 360 Linear is a proven choice for job shops and tier-1 suppliers requiring flexible, large-format vertical machining capability.

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What is the maximum workpiece size the DMF 360 Linear can accommodate?

The DMF 360 Linear offers 3,600 mm of X-axis travel and 1,000 mm of Y-axis travel, with a table load capacity of up to 5,000 kg, enabling machining of very large prismatic components in a single setup.

02 Does the DMF 360 Linear support five-sided machining?

Yes. With optional right-angle milling heads or a rotary/tilt table attachment, the DMF 360 Linear can perform five-sided machining of large workpieces, reducing setups and improving geometric consistency.

03 What control system does the DMF 360 Linear use?

The machine is available with either a Siemens 840D sl or a Heidenhain TNC 640 control, both integrated with DMG Mori's CELOS app-based operator interface for process management and monitoring.
